Dress Up Digitally: Google's Doppl App and Its Virtual Fitting Room

See Yourself in New Outfits Before Buying

Ever thought about seeing yourself in a new outfit before buying it? Google's Doppl app is here to make that happen. It's like having a digital fitting room right on your phone.

• Snap a full-body pic of yourself in good light and a simple stance.
• Upload a screenshot of the outfit you're curious about.
• The app's AI creates a virtual image of you wearing that outfit.
• Add fun animations to make it more lively.

Some Hiccups

• The app isn't great with pants, especially shorts.
• It might give you the wrong bottoms or make your shirt look too long.
• Sometimes, it even skips the pants altogether and generates fake feet.
• It's a bit glitchy, but it's trying its best.

Rules to Follow

• The app won't let you upload pictures of revealing outfits or public figures.
• It's probably for the best, but it can be a bit frustrating if you're just trying to have some fun.

Other Things to Note

• The app tends to make people look thinner, like bobblehead figures.
• This only happens with mirror selfies, though. Regular photos seem to work just fine.

A Significant Upgrade

Google has dabbled in virtual try-ons before, but Doppl is a significant upgrade. It lets you:

• Try on clothes from different sources.
• Turn it into a video.

If Google can iron out some of these issues, it could be a game-changer for online shopping.
