Encuadre is the companion for anyone who just bought their first real camera (DSLR or mirrorless) and still isn't sure what ISO, aperture, and shutter speed actually do beyond "auto mode." Your phone doesn't take the photo or replace the camera. You point it at the same scene you're about to shoot, pick a technique, and Encuadre explains live how those three settings relate to each other for that light and that subject — so you make the call, not the app. WHAT'S INCLUDED • 7 scene modes (outdoor portrait, landscape/golden hour, panning, action portrait, night portrait, studio/indoor portrait, focus), each calibrated to its own light and motion conditions. • Interactive exposure triangle: drag ISO, aperture, or shutter speed with your finger and feel in real time how the other two compensate to keep the same exposure — and what happens when one of the three hits its limit. • Focal length and lens-type recommendations per mode, with workarounds for anyone still shooting with their kit lens. • Concepts: 19 reference topics — exposure triangle, camera and scene modes, metering, exposure compensation, depth of field, focus, image stabilization, long exposure, white balance, color theory, flash, light modifiers, golden/blue hour, composition, RAW vs. JPEG, histogram, double exposure, and photographic styles — to help you find your own style, not just get a correct exposure. • Bilingual: Spanish and English, detects your phone's language. PRIVACY 100% on-device. Encuadre doesn't collect, store, or send any data or image to any server. The camera is used only for the live preview — no photo is ever taken or saved inside the app. Bokeh is left out on purpose: it depends on accurately estimating subject distance, and not every phone does that equally well.

Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Encuadre at 16.4 against OverlayLab's 26.0. On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
