Facial recognition software for iPhone might seem like a stretch, but that’s what Profiler-One would have you believe is incorporated into their face reading app. The Face Reader is apparently based on research and statistical mumbo jumbo, collected over years of research on thousands of faces. Keeping in mind that many iPhone apps hinting at performing paranormal, psychic, or futuristic tasks are for entertainment purposes only, I didn’t buy into the “realism” of The Face Reader while testing it out. Instead, I was looking for entertainment value, which frankly was a bit difficult to unearth.

The Face Reader uses photos taken with iPhone’s camera to “analyze” and then gives a full report, including facial symmetry, characteristics and personality traits. It has multiple language settings for global compatibility and it stores photos you’ve previously analyzed.

The Face Reader is supposed to generate a report that is both humorous and accurate. As far as humor goes, it has its moments, but many of the quips are insults that border on offensive, so use caution if you’re analyzing your mother.
