🚀 How to Open the FaceSwap App on the RunDiffusion Platform
Follow these steps to launch the FaceSwap app on the RunDiffusion Platform:


Click on Apps on the left side of the UI

Find FaceSwap in the available apps tiles and Click on FaceSwap.

Using the Face Swap App

1. Face to Swap Into Image
This is the source face — the person whose face will be placed into another image. Choose an image.
- Select from left (if you have existing generations)
- Upload from your device
- Use Library to select a previously uploaded or generated image.


2. Image to Receive Swapped Face
This is the target image — the image that will receive the new face.
Choose a target image.
- Select from left
- Upload
- Use Library
💡 Tip: Choose high-resolution images for best results.


Gender
Choose the gender of the source face:
- Male
- Female
- Non-Binary
This setting helps optimize facial structure and alignment.

Hair Strategy
Choose how the app handles the hair during the swap. These are general guidance and the AI may take liberties.
- Use source person’s hair – full face and hair from the source is transferred. The hair transfered may not align perfectly with the original.
- Use target person’s hair – only the face is swapped, original hair remains

Optional: Upscale Generation
Turn this on if you want a higher-resolution final image.

Generate your image
Click Run to render your image.

Examine your results. You can see in this instance the AI took some liberties with their hair.

You can choose Male, Female, or Non-Binary. This helps the model optimize structural alignment and improve realism during the swap.
What does the Hair Strategy option control?
You can choose:
- Use source person’s hair: transfers the face and the source hair (may not align perfectly)
- Use target person’s hair: keeps the original hair and swaps only the face
These are guidelines; the AI may interpret creatively depending on the image.
Can I upscale the final result?
Yes. Turn on the optional Upscale toggle to generate a higher-resolution output.
How do I generate my swapped image?
Click Run after selecting your inputs. Your result will appear in the session view, where you can inspect and download it.
