DoubleIt Camera is a camera and image blending app for making multiple exposure photos on iPhone. Shoot multiple exposures into one composition, import an existing photo and shoot another over it, or open multiple images and arrange them by hand. Each layer can be selected, moved, scaled, rotated, blended, and adjusted with opacity controls so the final image matches what you see while working. Features: - Capture multiple camera exposures into one combined image - Import photos as layers - Shoot over an imported image - Move, scale, and rotate individual layers - Adjust each layer's opacity - Use native blend modes including Screen, Multiply, Overlay, Soft Light, Difference, Hue, Color, and Luminosity - Use blend modes like Average and Additive - Toggle the live camera feed off while editing imported or captured layers - Use guide overlay controls for alignment - Export the combined result at high resolution with the long side at least 4000 px when source images allow it - Automatically crop unused canvas space on export - Save finished images to your photo library DoubleIt Camera is designed for creative photography, experiments, overlays, textures, reflections, silhouettes, and layered compositions without needing a desktop editor.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: MacroShader at Free against DoubleIt Camera's $0.99. DoubleIt Camera's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
