Is there a trick to the facescan?

I thought I did a good scan but my character came out with no bottom lip. I've failed a million times. And the 1 good render I got, came out with light grey eyes, my eyes are brown. Can we at least get an option to change eye color on our characters?

    I used the sunlight by bathroom window hitting it. Also u might want to use a lamp but not directly facing you to simulate sunlight. Try pointing up to cieling and change your position in the room. App is not flawed, it works just change your parameters.

    =)

    What phone or tablet you using? Try on a newer phone or tablet, I mean it doesn't have to be iPhone X but not a 4. Also are you using Adroid or Apple. Try different version. Have you tried on a tablet? Finally check your connection to your WiFi. Make a connection to a 5ghz wireless it's better and faster than 2.4ghz. Try to get as close to your router when uploading and place the phone on a flat surface with radio of phone usually top of device pointing to your routers attennas. Check you don't have any type of metals or microwave inithe field of view to your router. Try going to a better internet connection like firends or library. Try on your phone cellular internet non WiFi to see if that helps.

    I needed to do my pix 30 times to get perfect and sometimes it would say 2 mins and then fail also but I corrected this by getting closer to router and restarting app.

    Also very important when you get upload failure's close Live Companion 2019 and restart app. Do this everytime you get the upload failure because I noticed once you get the error it would not upload again. Once I restarted app it would work properly until I get this error which happens randomly. App is huge and I imagine takes up a lot of memory so close app and close from recent use also, run a memory boost on phone or restart phone to help refresh ram.

    Remember it not everyone having this problem it's per user error meaning everyone will have a different outcome depending on factors I mentioned above. Good Luck and Patience

    The trick is:

    Don't use it. It's flawed. I probably tried 30 times and it looks nothing like me.

    One time, one of my eyebrows was missing, lol.

    i would recommend to use natural light. Go outside on a sunny day. you need even natural lighting to get your
    hue correct. bathroom and artificial light does not help. hope this helps
