Motormouth: Talking Puppets

Pick a photo, tap a sound, watch it talk. Motormouth turns any face into a puppet with a mouth that really moves. Private, offline, and made for silly clips.

Turn any photo into a talking puppet.

Motormouth opens a mouth in a photo and makes it move. Pick a photo, tap a sound, and watch a face you know come to life — the jaw drops open and snaps shut in time with every bark, laugh and roar.

HOW IT WORKS Bring in a photo from your library or take one straight from your camera. Motormouth finds the face and builds a mouth automatically. Tap any sound and the puppet talks.

MAKE THE MOUTH YOURS Open the close-up editor and shape it exactly how you want: upper and lower lip curves, jaw width, jaw length, how far it drops, and the angle of the cut for a crooked smile. Faces turned at an angle get a hinge, so the jaw swings open instead of sliding straight down. Choose what shows inside — a dark mouth, a tongue, or teeth on top, on the bottom, or both.

24 SOUNDS INCLUDED Barks, yips, howls, growls, meows, roars, snores, sneezes and laughs. All free, all included, nothing to unlock.

NINE LOOKS Bubbly Pop, Storybook, Sticker Book, Midnight, Crayon, Arcade, Kawaii, Comic and Chalkboard. One tap changes the app's whole personality.

SEVEN ANIMATIONS Chatter, Bounce, Wiggle, Pop, Nod, Dramatic and Calm — each moves the head its own way while the mouth does the talking.
