FAQ

Photo swap and selfie exchange questions

How can I exchange selfies privately?

Create a PicSwap invite link and share it with one person. Each of you chooses a photo and confirms it. Both photos unlock only after both confirmations. A free swap needs no account.

Is PicSwap a face swap or random matching app?

No. PicSwap exchanges photos between two people who share an invite link. It does not edit faces, match strangers, or verify that an uploaded selfie is recent or authentic.

When can I see their photo?

After joining, you can see a blurred preview if they sent a photo. Clear photos unlock after both people send a photo. You cannot change a photo after sending it.

Can I upload after creating the link?

Yes. Open your management link, choose a photo, then choose Confirm photo. Choosing a photo alone does not send it.

Does the photo prove who they are?

No. They can upload any photo. PicSwap does not check their identity or whether the photo is new.

How do I return to my swap?

We recommend signing in to your account to open or delete your swap.

Can I create more than one swap?

One active swap per browser is free. Sign in and choose Create another link to create an extra swap for 1 Credit.

When are photos deleted?

Both photos must be uploaded within 24 hours. After both upload, the selected deletion timer starts. The default is 5 days. Manual deletion costs 1 Credit.

Must we be online at the same time?

No. Return before the swap is deleted. This browser remembers your active swap, and signed-in accounts sync saved links.

Can I install PicSwap?

Use your browser’s install option. On iPhone or iPad, open PicSwap in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. You still need the internet to swap photos.
