## Description

TraceIt turns your phone into a drawing assistant — place it above paper, pick a photo or template, and trace the outline right through the screen<br><br>HOW IT WORKS <br>  1. Choose a reference image from your gallery or pick one of the built-in templates (animals, portraits, plants, architecture).<br>  2. Adjust the opacity so the image shows through clearly without overpowering your pencil lines.<br>  3. Position your phone face-down above the paper. The camera shows the paper with your image overlaid as a semi-transparent guide.<br>  4. Trace the outline on paper while watching the screen.<br><br>  • Camera overlay — your image sits directly on the live camera feed<br>  • Gallery import — use any photo from your device<br>  • Template library — ready-made reference images across multiple categories<br>  • Opacity control — fine-tune how visible the guide is<br>  • 90° rotation — match your paper orientation <br>  • Auto settings — one tap to apply comfortable defaults<br>  • History &amp; favorites — quickly return to images you&#39;ve used before<br>  • Works offline — no internet required <br>  <br>  GREAT FOR<br>  • Beginners learning to draw proportions<br>  • Kids tracing characters and animals<br>  • Artists who want accurate reference scaling<br>  • Anyone who wants to copy a photo onto paper<br>  <br>  No account needed. No ads during drawing. Just open and trace.
