Keep the person's face unchanged. - Try a different model if the result isn't right. Each model shows its price per edit.
Moving to a new device
Each license works on 2 devices. To move it, click Deactivate in Settings on the old device first, then activate on the new one. For the extension, removing and reinstalling it counts as a new device, so deactivate before you remove it.
