Google launched a new app called Doppl on Thursday, June 26, that lets you try on new clothes from the comfort of your couch. Part of Google Labs, the tech giant’s initiative which lets users try new and experimental features, the company said that the app “makes it fun and easy to see any outfit on a digital, animated version of yourself.”
Last month, Google Shopping announced that users will be able to try on “billions of clothing items” by simply uploading a photo. In a blog post, the tech giant said that the new Doppl app builds on these capabilities and also introduces a bunch of new features, like the ability to convert static images into visuals by letting users take a look at how an outfit might look like using AI-generated videos.
Users can also save their favourite looks, go through them and even share them with others. If users come across any outfit they like, say from a friend, local thrift shop or on social media, Google says they can take a picture of it and use Doppl to see how it looks on them. As of now, the app lets you try on things like tops, bottoms, and dresses. In case you are wondering, things like shoes, lingerie, bathing suits and accessories are not available for try-on.
However, since the new app is still in experimental stages, the tech giant says it might not get things like appearance and clothing details right every time. This means that the app might sometimes “imagine parts of an outfit if there are missing elements.” For example, if you upload a picture of only a shirt, Doppl will generate an image that includes pants, shoes and accessories matching the outfit.
And while Doppl is available on both Android and iOS, it is currently limited to those living in the United States. Moreover, it is still unknown if the company plans to expand its availability to other regions.
This isn’t the first time Google has ventured into this space. Back in 2023, the tech giant introduced its virtual try-on technology, which allowed users to see how a piece of clothing would look on a wide range of models. Earlier this year, Glance, the popular consumer-centric AI-based software company, launched Glance AI, an app that helps users discover new products using AI.
