GhostFrame turns one photo a day into a timelapse that actually holds still. Pick a subject — your face, a bump, a baby, a plant, a room mid-renovation — and the camera fades yesterday's shot over the live view. New in 2.0, GhostFrame reads the ghost and the live picture on your iPhone and guides you in: when you're lined up it locks with a tap you can feel, and Auto can take the photo for you. WHAT'S NEW IN 2.0 • Live ghost guide: face tracking for selfie-style projects, scene alignment for everything else, a match score, one plain hint, and a haptic lock. • Auto-shoot and a level line. • Apple Watch: today's frames and streaks, Then vs Now on the Digital Crown, and a remote shutter for the iPhone camera. • Home Screen widget: your streak and latest frame for the project that still needs today's photo — tap to shoot. • Then vs Now: wipe, fade, flicker or side by side between any two frames, plus a share card. • Memory Lane: the photo from a month, 100 days or a year ago today. • Insights: streaks, a calendar of every day you showed up, milestones, your usual shooting time, your ghost-match score. • Export studio: a live storyboard of your video, auto-align steadies every frame; opening title and closing stats; 9:16, 1:1, 4:5, 16:9, 4K and GIF. • A living home where every project plays its own timelapse, a new icon and a new animated tour. ALSO INCLUDED Templates for Face, Bump (week cards), Baby (month cards), Fitness (front/side/back), Plant, Renovation and Anything; import photos you already have on their real dates; ghost from the previous, first or a pinned frame; outline mode; 0.5×/1×/2× lenses; reminders with quiet days that open straight into the camera; zip backups; captions for any video, transcribed on device. PRIVACY Photos and projects stay on your device; alignment runs on device. No account. Anonymous usage stats (never photos or names) can be turned off in Settings. Every feature is included. No subscription, no ads.
TwinCam
Read full descriptionHide full description
Put the photo you want on top of your viewfinder, then match the pose exactly. TwinCam is the camera for recreating shots. Pick a reference, watch it sit translucently over your live view, and move until the reference and reality line up. No filter, no AI, no generated image: what you get is a real photograph that looks exactly the way you planned it. THREE WAYS TO GET A REFERENCE • Library – curated poses for couples, travel, family and friends • Your own photo – any shot from your library becomes an overlay • Stencil – a translucent figure for when you have no reference at all THEN & NOW Same place, same pose, years later. TwinCam holds the old photo over your viewfinder so you nail the framing, then hands you a finished then-and-now card to share. Time-warp series collect several versions of the same shot across the years and remind you when the next one is due. EVERY DETAIL LINES UP • Opacity control from a faint hint to nearly solid • Move, rotate and zoom the overlay • Corner guides snap once the pose matches • Photographer checklist: whoever holds the phone gets clear step cards • Burst mode with automatic best pick • Self-timer that waits until everything is in place WHAT PEOPLE USE TWINCAM FOR • Recreating couple shots and poses they saved online • Retaking childhood photos with their own kids • Hitting travel shots from the exact same viewpoint • Documenting a pregnancy, a move or an anniversary as a series • Directing a group – one person guides everyone through the overlay YOUR PHOTOS STAY YOURS The overlay runs entirely on your device. Nothing is uploaded to be beautified, nothing is generated. Cloud backup exists only if you switch it on yourself; it is off by default. FREE & PREMIUM Start free: camera, overlay, stencils, checklist, then-and-now cards and series. Premium unlocks the full library, unlimited references of your own, HD export without a watermark, burst mode, the self-timer, video export of your series and cloud backup. Download TwinCam and take the photo you already pictured. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GhostFrame at none against TwinCam's 3. TwinCam's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
