Viggle alternative for recasting a real clip with friends

Viggle is a strong app with free daily generations and thousands of templates, so try it first if you want variety. If you mainly want to drop yourself and up to 3 friends into a clip from your own Photos and keep that clip's camera and sound, BeMainStar is a focused alternative. Pick a 5 to 30 second video, take one selfie, and about 2 minutes later you have the same scene with you in it, with no watermark. BeMainStar needs a subscription to start; 1 Star is 1 second of video.

iPhone and Android. For ages 13 and up. Subscription needed to start. Updated October 6, 2026.

Why BeMainStar: BeMainStar is narrower than Viggle on purpose: your clip, your friends, the original scene.

Side by side: the original dancer on a concert stage, and the same frame recast with a different person in the same pose.

What Viggle is good at

Per its US App Store listing as of October 2026, Viggle AI offers up to 5 free video generations a day, more than 8,000 templates, your own video as a source, swapping several characters in one video, lip-sync and rap tools, a live webcam mode and a community feed. It has about 27,800 ratings averaging 4.8. That is a lot of app, and for many people it is the right one.

Why people still look for an alternative

In 778 one and two star App Store reviews of 11 AI video and face swap apps that we read in October 2026 (Viggle among them), the big themes were credits running out, slow or stuck generations, and results that did not look like the person. Some of that applies to every AI video app, including ours. What we can offer is a smaller, clearer job.

What BeMainStar focuses on

  • The real scene. The background, camera and sound of your clip stay. You become the person in it, as in the frame above.
  • Up to 4 people with one photo each, at the same Star cost as one.
  • Seconds, not mystery credits. 1 Star is 1 second. The cost is on the button, and failed videos give the Stars back.
  • No watermark on what you save.

Where Viggle wins

  • You want to try before paying. BeMainStar has no free tier.
  • You want templates, lip-sync, rap or live streaming. BeMainStar does none of these.

Questions

Can I try it for free?

No. BeMainStar needs a subscription before your first video. We would rather say that up front. A subscription is needed to start: Weekly is $4.99 with 5 Stars each week, Yearly is $89.99 with 8 Stars each month. 1 Star is 1 second of video, and Star packs of 5, 12 or 25 Stars top you up. Prices vary by country. If a video fails, your Stars come back.

Does BeMainStar keep the background and sound of my clip?

Yes. The finished video keeps the clip's scene, camera moves and original audio, with you as the person in it.

Can I add friends?

Yes, up to 3 friends for 4 people in one video. Add a friend only with their permission.

How long does a video take?

About 2 minutes. You can leave the app while it works and come back to the finished video.
