Sunlap: Then & Now Camera

Same spot, different time.
The same couch, the same front door, the same tree, photographed year after year. Side by side, those pictures let you see time pass. Sunlap lays your last photo over the camera as a see-through "ghost," so you can line up the same spot and framing again. Ordinary days become milestones.

The name says it all: Sunlap is one lap around the sun, one year. Shoot once a year, once a month, or every day.

■ Line up the shot with a ghost overlay
• Ghost overlay: the previous photo appears semi-transparent over the live camera
• Match score for background, people placement and pose, plus hints like "one step left"
• Auto-capture when everything lines up, or a smile shutter that fires when everyone smiles
• Volume keys or a Bluetooth remote, countdown and voice guidance, so the photographer can be in the family picture too
• Level and tilt matching, a light hint based on where the sun will be, and pro controls: zoom, exposure lock, lens, white balance, ISO and shutter speed

■ Pick what to keep: 10 templates
Each comes with its own Before & After card design.
• Family: yearly frames that stack up
• Couple: days-together counter, polaroid and film strip
• Kid growth: height-ruler notebook, age in months and height
• Baby daily: one shot a day on the same blanket, days-since-birth calendar
• Pet: days since adoption
• Plant: observation journal
• Home or renovation: blueprint style
• Fitness: same pose, before and after
• Daily selfie: mosaic
• Scenery and seasons: postcard

■ Ordinary days become milestones
• Day counts, 100 days, birthdays and anniversaries tracked automatically
• Notifications on shoot day, a week before, on milestones and "on this day N years ago," plus gentle streak nudges
• Home screen widget showing the next anniversary
• Shot calendar of every day you took a picture

■ What the collection turns into
• Timelapse, and a vertical 9:16 share video with slide comparison
• Face-change video with faces aligned automatically
• Compare slider, year in review and same-age comparison
• Height measured using the background as a ruler
• A voice memo for each photo, plus short before/after moment clips
• Old or studio photos imported, paper prints scanned and auto-straightened
• Family face tags that calculate age automatically
• A map of your places (Google Maps)

■ Your photos stay on your phone
No account, no server, no ads. Everything runs on the device, face detection included. Photos are also saved to the gallery in an album per place, so they survive even if you delete the app. Back up to a file you keep yourself (for example, your own cloud drive) and share a place with family through the share sheet.

■ Included features and Premium
Without paying anything you get up to 3 places with the full camera, ghost overlay, all 10 templates, cards, reminders, timelapse and backup. Some features require an in-app purchase. Premium is a one-time purchase, not a subscription:
• Unlimited places
• Growth movie (free to preview): an automatic 9:16 movie of slow zoom crossfades, milestone captions like "Day 100" and three music moods (warm, bright, calm)
• Celebration pack: 6 card frames for 100 days, 1st birthday, birthday, anniversary, holiday and Christmas
• Time capsule letters (first one free): seal a letter and up to 1 minute of voice to a place. It opens on the date you choose, like "in 10 years" or "on the 20th birthday," and can't be opened before then
• Watermark-free vertical video and printable photobook or frame PDFs

■ How to start
1. Create a place and pick a template
2. Take the first photo, or import an old one
3. When the reminder arrives, match last time's ghost and shoot
4. Turn the collection into Before & After cards and a timelapse
