The Tencent Effect SDK offers various beauty filters and effects. To use it, you can purchase a Tencent Effect package for a license. For the billing details, see Pricing Overview.
After purchase, you can add and renew a Tencent Effect license in the Tencent Effect SDK console. The license can be bound to a mobile or desktop application, and modifications are not allowed after binding. This document describes how to add and renew a Tencent Effect official license for a mobile application.
After purchasing or renewing a new license, the terminal application will automatically complete the update when it is connected to the Internet. If it is not effective, it may be affected by the local cache. You can solve this problem by restarting the application.
The Tencent Effect SDK provides trial licenses, which you can apply for for free to try out beauty filters and effects. For more information, see Free Trial License.
