Contour: Take the Same Photo

Saw a photo on Instagram you want to recreate? Contour traces its edges over your live camera so you can match the exact same shot — then compare or make a clip.

Ever tried to retake a photo from the exact same spot and gave up because nothing lined up? A step closer, a slight turn, and the comparison is ruined.

Contour fixes that. Load an older photo as a reference and Contour traces its edges, then projects those contours over your live camera. Move until the lines snap back onto your subject, and capture a shot framed exactly like the first one.

WHAT YOU CAN DO • Aligned Photo — overlay a reference and shoot from the same angle, every time. Choose Contours (glowing edge outlines) or Ghost (a faded copy of the photo), fade the overlay in and out, pinch to zoom, then capture. • Compare Two — pick any two photos and drag a slider between before & after. Swap them with one tap, and export the pair to share. • Make a Clip — stitch your shots into a looping video or GIF. Set the speed and pick a style (cut, crossfade, or boomerang). Great for showing change over time.

WHY PEOPLE USE IT • Recreate a photo you saw on Instagram — match a pose at a statue, doorway, or famous building by standing exactly where they stood • Fitness and body progress shots that actually line up week to week • Before & after for home projects, renovations, restorations, and plants • Any time framing matters and "close enough" isn't

SIMPLE BY DESIGN • Shoot inside Contour, or bring photos from your normal camera and pick them later • Everything saves straight to your Photos library • No account, no sign-up, no ads • Free

Contour is free and made by an indie developer. More is on the way — including an AI Object Swap mode that drops you into a pose from any photo.
