ProgressCam
Read full descriptionHide full description
See your progress clearly. ProgressCam lines up every new photo with the one before it, so your before-and-after photos actually match — same angle, same framing, real change you can see. Most progress photos drift: a little closer, a little higher, a slightly different pose — and suddenly you can't tell what really changed. ProgressCam fixes that at capture time. A ghost of your last photo sits right in the camera, so you can stand in exactly the same spot and shoot a frame that matches the last one. CAPTURE THAT LINES UP • Ghost overlay of your previous photo, right in the viewfinder • Zoom and manual fine-tuning when you want full control • Smart alignment that registers each new shot against the last IMPORT THE PHOTOS YOU ALREADY HAVE ← NEW • Bring in older photos from your library and align them with the rest • Fix each photo's date right in the import grid — one tap to correct or add a date • Reorder, choose your starting photo, and align the whole batch in one step A TIMELINE THAT STAYS IN ORDER ← NEW • Your progression is kept in true date order automatically • The earliest photo is always your starting point • One tap to reset a side back to date order any time you change it COMPARE THE CHANGE • Side-by-side view • Slide-to-reveal comparison • Tap-to-toggle between two moments SHARE IT BEAUTIFULLY • Six export formats: side-by-side, split, story, panoramic strip, grid collage, and slideshow • Add date, day-count, or label overlays • Save or share to anywhere KEEP THE HABIT • Set a reminder — choose from three frequencies — so you never skip a shot YOUR PROJECTS, BACKED UP • Organize photos into projects, one per thing you're tracking • Sign in with Apple or Google — or stay anonymous • Optional cloud backup keeps your projects safe and synced across your devices ProgressCam Pro unlocks more projects and photos, multiple sides per project, HD export, and expanded cloud backup. Start free and upgrade any time. Whether you're tracking a home renovation, a garden or plant, a skincare or hair routine, a pet, a creative build, or any personal project — ProgressCam makes the change impossible to miss.
