Then & Now Cam

Time moves on, but memories stay. Then & Now Cam is a creative camera app for recreating old photos, revisiting meaningful places, and matching iconic movie, anime, or travel scenes. Import a reference image and the app overlays it transparently on your live camera view, helping you align buildings, streets, poses, and compositions with precision. Whether you are returning to a childhood photo spot, revisiting a school or city corner years later, or recreating a favorite frame from a film or animation, Then & Now Cam helps you place the past and present into one polished image. KEY FEATURES - Transparent reference camera: overlay an old or reference photo directly on the live camera preview. - Front camera retakes: switch between rear and front cameras for selfies, portraits, poses, and family recreations. - Precise alignment tools: adjust opacity, drag, zoom, rotate, lock, mirror, reset, show outlines, grids, and a level guide. - Lightweight place memory: save optional approximate locations for projects and photos, then prioritize nearby past photos when choosing references. - Instant workflow: import a photo and start shooting without creating a complex project first. - Automatic project management: unfinished works stay in Pending Retake, while completed images are saved under Completed. - Retake resume and recovery: return to the camera from Pending Retake with the selected reference and its saved opacity, position, scale, rotation, mirror, and lock state. - Precise focus and metering: tap the preview to set focus and exposure, then lock or restore automatic focus and exposure when needed. - Optional camera controls: reveal exposure compensation and supported physical lenses only when you want them. Both stay collapsed by default and can be enabled independently in Settings. - Result comparison and retake: switch between the final composition and a swipe comparison, then return to the same project for another capture without discarding earlier attempts. - Darkroom templates: export with gallery, cinematic film, postcard, archive, travel journal, instant-photo, minimal, and editorial styles. - Custom export controls: adjust style, canvas ratio, photo crop, text, spacing, frames, colors, and template details; photo slots now adapt more naturally to each canvas ratio. - Local-first privacy: photo selection, camera capture, collage generation, and export rendering are processed on your device.
