DAKAA

Anyone can take great photos. DAKAA doesn't hide bad shots behind retro filters — it helps you take better ones, using the composition rules photographers actually use. Rule #1: Straighten Your Photos Almost every photo looks better level. Turn on the gimbal and DAKAA straightens your shot automatically, with a real-time preview so you always know exactly what's in frame. Rule #2: Frame Your Subject The rule of thirds is the most reliable framing tool in photography. Turn on Smart Frame and DAKAA tells you which way to move the camera to land your subject where it belongs. Rule #3: Capture the Moment Time Travel lets you pull a frame from the last few seconds, so a perfect moment is never gone for good. Backup images give you a fallback whenever a shot takes too long to capture. Rule #4: Edit Your Photos Even the best photographers edit. DAKAA analyses your photo and suggests edits tailored to that specific shot — no guesswork, no presets that fight your image. Rule #5: Shoot Videos Too Sometimes a moment needs motion. Long-press the shutter to start recording: release within 5 seconds to stop, or hold past 5 seconds and it keeps rolling until you say stop. Make the camera yours. Customisable modes let you switch off anything you don't need, so the interface stays out of your way.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SmileSelfie at none against DAKAA's 2. SmileSelfie also leads on iOS requirement (11.2 vs 17.6). DAKAA's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 19 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
