how-old.net

I just did it with 2 photos - one came up as 28 and the as 77 - DH came up as 55

We are 39 and 37 respectively

We can't stop laughing - not so funny for some though

AIBU to ask how far out it was for you (or not)

35, 27,29 and 23 for me and 27, 23 and 32 for DP, were both 21

CommunistLegoBloc · 23/10/2016 21:41

Omg just tried it again and it said 20 years older than I actually am.

SellMySoulForSomeSleep · 23/10/2016 21:42

I'm 34. Glasses off I'm 7. Glasses on I'm 17! No make up, hair scraped back selfie

AdmiralCLingus · 23/10/2016 21:42

Hahah my first photo was one on holiday.... it said I was 45. I just took one and it says I'm 67...

I'm 27!

It got dds age spot on though

Sugarandsalt · 23/10/2016 21:42

I came up as 27 (I'm 34). DD is 2, it thought she was 67. So I'm fairly sure it's not very accurate!

Wonderfulworcestershirelady · 23/10/2016 21:44

Used a makeup free photo and got 46, I'm 52. Tried a photo we'd played around with to show DS how easy it is to alter your looks on social media and that was 30.

Judydreamsofhorses · 23/10/2016 21:44

I did four different photos - got 35, 36, 35, 35. I am 43.

IhatchedaSnorlax · 23/10/2016 21:45

Tried 3 different photos - 43, 36 & 38 - I'm 40 so not too far off at all really!

Bertucci · 23/10/2016 21:46

I did it with a photo of me and a friend.

I got 24, she got 68. We are both 46 Grin

It's, I suspect, totally random.

Ilovenannyplum · 23/10/2016 21:47

I'm 28

First picture said 18 yay second said 36 Hmm

Whathaveilost · 23/10/2016 21:48

I wonder if it was the same software used to age the children coming in from Calais.

Herzie29 · 23/10/2016 21:49

DH was 23 in the first and 40 when he put his glasses on. He's 46. It's only been correct for DS who's 1. Mind you I don't think wrinkles show in gloomy room light.

Rainbunny · 23/10/2016 21:49

I tried it last year when it was first launched. I got 26 (I'm 40) so I personally think this is very trustworthy technology :)

Usernameinvalid16 · 23/10/2016 21:52

I got 14, 17 and then 21 Grin i'm 22. It said my 2 year old dd was 4! Grin

NovemberInDailyFailLand · 23/10/2016 21:53

I'm touching 39 and have just had a baby, it still thinks I am 21. Thanks, age-recognition thingy!

MinnieMinchkin · 23/10/2016 21:54

DP was estimated to be 42, he's 48. He does look young for his age, in reality.

For me, between 37 and 50 - I am 42. I do look older than I am Sad

For DD, 11 to 16. She's just turned 7! I reckon she looks a little older than she is, maybe 9 or 10, due to her height.

PlayOnWurtz · 23/10/2016 21:54

28 for all 3. I'm mid thirties

MrsRhubarb · 23/10/2016 21:55

13 Shock

mrschatty · 23/10/2016 21:55

24 and I'm actually 26 so that's fine by me

LadyBaelish · 23/10/2016 21:56

I got 21 (twice!!) and I'm 38. DH got 33 and he's 41. We'll take it Grin

YorkieDorkie · 23/10/2016 21:56

I'm female, Caucasian, 28

Drumroll...

26 Grin

What do I win?

Those free and no-name apps are normally very inaccurate and aimed at getting your FB profile instead of providing an accurate service.
For a very good test though I suggest this. It's a demo of a SW that's being used in the world of business: personality-insights-livedemo.mybluemix.net

TaterTots · 23/10/2016 21:59

This one also tells you how attractive you are:

Try it with your dog/cat if you can get them to stay still long enough!

RainyDayBear · 23/10/2016 22:01

Between 36 and 46 for me (I'm 30!). Nine month old DD is apparently between 2 and 3!
