Photos with kids are common and often misused. If the kids are yours and your profile reflects that you're a parent, a kid photo is a useful signal. If the kids are nieces, nephews, or friends' children, the photo confuses viewers who can't tell which it is. Leading to a higher pass rate.

Questions
Should I use a photo with kids on my profile?
Useful only if the kids are yours and your profile makes that clear. Photos with kids are common and often misused. If the kids are yours and your profile reflects that you're a parent, a kid photo is a useful signal. If the kids are nieces, nephews, or friends' children, the photo confuses viewers who can't tell which it is. Leading to a higher pass rate.
Where should a photo with kids go in my profile?
A photo with kids works best at photo 3. Lead with a clear, well-lit shot of your face.
When does a photo with kids hurt?
Niece/nephew situation that reads as 'are these their kids?'. Lead photo with kids. Confusing first impression. Multiple kid photos when bio doesn't clarify parental status.
What should I avoid in a photo with kids?
Kid photos when the kids aren't yours and you don't say so. Using kid photos as a 'softness signal' when context isn't clear.
Will it still look like me?
Yes. Your face, skin and build stay yours. Magnt changes the light and the place, not the person.
How long does it take?
About 60 seconds for a photo. Videos take a few minutes.
Can it talk in the video?
Yes. Type a line and you say it to the camera, in a 5 or 10 second clip.
What if I don’t love the result?
Change one line in the prompt and try again, or ask for a variation. Keep only the ones you like.
Your photo with kids is ready when you are.
A few selfies in. A better photo out. Then make it move.
