Upload a clear selfie
Face the camera, eyes visible, decent light. Your expression does not matter; the smiling demo selfie above ended up in tears.
Free without an account · Six scenes, from heartbreak to meme · Your face kept
The cry face portrait from your For You page, for a heartbreak post, happy news or a group-chat meme: upload a selfie, tap a scene, and the template adds the tears and keeps your face.
Made-up people, real runs: a smiling bedroom selfie and a straight-faced hallway selfie, beside the crying portrait each one became. Upload your own to see yours.




The AI crying filter turns an ordinary selfie into a portrait of you in tears: wet lashes, red-rimmed eyes, tears running down your cheeks, and the light and setting of a film scene. On TikTok it is posted as the cry face trend, usually made by pasting a long prompt into a chatbot. Here that prompt is already written, six times over, and you only bring the photo.
Both demo selfies below are flat indoor phone shots. The AI crying filter needs a clear face, not a good camera or a sad expression.
Crying filter apps paste cartoon tears on top of your picture. This draws a new photo where the tears catch the light and the whole face reads as crying.

One selfie, one template or one sentence, and the cost shows before you run it.
Every AI crying filter template names your face, features, skin tone and hair as the parts that stay, then writes the tears, the eyes and the light around them.
Heartbreak by a rainy window, happy tears at your own wedding, a goodbye on a train platform, or a full sobbing meme. The mood decides the light, the clothes and the place.
The long prompt the TikTok posts paste into a chatbot is already written into each scene. You bring the selfie and choose why you are crying.
Face the camera, eyes visible, decent light. Your expression does not matter; the smiling demo selfie above ended up in tears.
Rainy window, tears of joy, tearful bride, black-and-white close-up, sobbing meme or train-platform goodbye. Or type in your own reason for crying.
Press generate, then download the finished picture. Post it on its own, or next to your original selfie as a before and after.
Sad, happy, dramatic or funny: each scene is a template in the generator, shown here on made-up people. Tap it there and only your selfie is left to add.

The cry face trend itself: a night close-up by rain-streaked glass, one tear on the cheek, warm lamp light on one side and blurred city lights on the other. For the heartbreak post.

Laughing and crying at once, hand on your chest, golden afternoon light. For good news: the acceptance letter, the engagement, the team that finally won.

An ivory gown, a sheer veil and happy tears in a sunlit chapel. For the wedding countdown, or for picturing the day before it happens.

One tear, hard window light, deep shadow and film grain. The quiet, serious version of the AI crying filter, and the one that suits an album cover.

Face scrunched, mouth open, tears pouring, flat flash. The reaction picture for a group chat, made from your own face instead of a stock meme.

A wool coat, light rain and a departing train behind you. The movie ending for a move, a long-distance relationship or the last day of summer. Want the happy ending too? The Disney boyfriend filter puts the same selfie in an animated romance.
You can try it free. Open the free engine tab, upload your selfie and add tears without making an account; each visitor gets a daily allowance there. A crying photo from GPT Image 2 is 50 credits whatever the resolution, and uses no credits on the Pro and Max plans.
Yes. Upload a selfie here, pick a scene and generate in the browser on a phone or a laptop. Nothing to download or install, and the result saves as a picture.
Upload a clear portrait and pick the rainy window template. The posts ask a chatbot to keep your face and add watery eyes, tears and cinematic light; that is what this template is written to do, with the scene already filled in.
Not as a live camera effect: this AI crying filter makes a finished photo. Download it and post it to Instagram, TikTok or a story like any other picture.
Yes, that is the sobbing meme template: scrunched face, open mouth, streams of tears and flat flash, built from your selfie rather than a stock meme face.
That is what every template is written for. Give it a bright selfie where your face fills a good part of the frame and faces the camera; that is the detail the model carries into the crying version.
No. It makes a still photo. To share it on TikTok, post the picture as a photo post or next to your original selfie as a before and after.
Yes. Name the reason, the place and the light, then ask to keep the face: "keep my exact face, add tears and red-rimmed eyes, at a concert in the rain". All six templates follow that shape, and you can edit any of them.
