How to use the TikTok shapeshifting filter

TikTok users have been finding out which popular characters they most look like by using the popular ‘shapeshifting filter’ that’s going viral on the app.

Video sharing app TikTok has become well known for its huge selection of filters. They have everything from beauty filters to bizarre effects, and they have provided a huge amount of entertainment for users of the platform, and have often been the starting point for many viral trends.

One filter that people have been keen to get their hands on is the shapeshifting filter. This filter allows users to insert a picture, and on the count of three, their face will morph into one of the people in the selected image.

Some say that it indicates who you most resemble, but people have been finding that that’s probably not the case, after getting some varied results.
