Overlay Camera
Read full descriptionHide full description
Recreate any photo, perfectly framed. MatchShot is the overlay camera built for series - baby growth, fitness transformations, beard journeys, skincare glow over time, plant growth, pregnancy weeks, travel returns, and any "same shot, but later" project you want to actually finish. Drop a reference photo onto your viewfinder. Yesterday's shot becomes a soft ghost on today's screen. Line up the eyes, the doorframe, the horizon. Tap the shutter. Today's photo is already aligned to yesterday's - no cropping, no AI guessing, no remembering where you stood. Other progress-photo apps align your shots AFTER the fact - they crop, re-warp, lose pixels, and still drift. MatchShot aligns BEFORE the fact. The series actually looks like a series. USE IT FOR • Pregnancy timeline - one photo a week, perfectly aligned. • Baby & kid growth - same chair, same teddy, every birthday. • Fitness transformations - same pose, same mirror, real change. • Beard, hair, and skin progress --track real change over weeks. • Plant and garden growth - daily shots into a smooth timelapse. • Same-place travel - then and now from the same step. • Landscape seasons - one viewpoint, four seasons. • Recipe carousels - every step from the same angle. WHAT'S INSIDE - OVERLAY CAMERA: Reference photo on the viewfinder. Adjustable opacity, flip, and lock. Composition guides for rule of thirds, golden ratio, and custom framing. - COLLECTIONS: Every series grouped automatically. Grid or timeline view with adaptive day/month grouping. - COMPARE: Before/after slider. Onion-skin overlay. Drag, scale, rotate to fine-tune. Save the aligned transform. - AI ALIGN: One tap. Face landmarks first, body pose next, image registration last. Pixel-accurate register without a slider. - EXPORT: Turn any Collection into a 10-second timelapse video, a looping GIF, or a before/after collage. - PRIVATE BY DESIGN: Every photo stays on your iPhone.

A NOTE FROM THE MAKER I built MatchShot because I have boxes of photos I'd love to recreate today, and every existing tool asked me to do the hard work - alignment, after the moment had passed. MatchShot puts that work where it belongs: on the viewfinder, before the shutter. Some frames are meant to have sequels. Download MatchShot today, drop in your first reference photo, and take the first shot of a series you'll actually finish.
