In AR Face Mode, you can use a live avatar that **only covers your face** similarly to Snapchat's AR Filter. Using AR Face Mode, various body gestures can be used for live streaming. Avatar Creators can utilize <mark style="color:purple;">`AR Face Mode Setup`</mark> in MYTY Kit to set avatar traits to be used in AR Face Mode.

{% hint style="danger" %}
When a user uses AR Face Mode, if the face is not captured on the camera or moves too fast, **there is a possibility that the IRL face will be revealed**. If you are worried about the reveal of your face, we do not recommend using AR Face Mode.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## How to set up AR Face Mode

1\. Open the AR Face Mode Setup window by clicking <mark style="color:purple;">`upper toolbar > MYTY Kit > AR Face Mode Setup`</mark>.
