LIKE – Shaping Magic

It is the first time a company has developed a body shaping feature globally. With various entertainment mobile apps available in India that offer multiple face modification features, these apps are very popular among the youth who like to experiment with their photos/videos. LIKE’s Shaping Magic is designed to not only leverage this trend but to also offer a much more advanced feature for youth to experiment with.
