Live layout preview over the camera view on iOS

Show the selected layout or overlay live over the camera preview on iPad and iOS so guests can see how they fit in the final design before the photo is taken, as already available on Windows. This helps group shots and prevents people being cut off.

Original request

It would be extremely helpful to have a live layout/overlay preview visible during the camera preview, so guests can see exactly how they fit within the final design before the photo is taken. This is especially useful for group shots and helps prevent people from being cut off or misaligned.

Having a true “what you see is what you get” preview—similar to what some other platforms offer—would make a big difference in usability and overall client satisfaction.

    Frame Layout Preview During Photo Capture

    Would it be possible to display an overlay preview of the selected frame layout while taking photos?

    This would allow users to see the actual photo area and frame boundaries during the capture process, making it easier to position themselves correctly and ensure that everyone fits within the final frame layout.

    Ideally, the overlay would be visible on the camera preview but would not be included in the captured photos.

    I definitely agree that this is something that folks would like to see. I usually have to create a welcome screen that blocks out certain areas so that folks know where the photo will be taken.
