Store listing

Full description

Trace images onto paper with the camera you already carry. TraceOverlay places a reference image over your live camera view, turning your phone into a practical tracing lightbox for drawing, painting, lettering, murals, and art study. TRACE WITH PRECISION • Choose a reference from your photo library • Move, scale, and rotate it over your drawing surface • Adjust opacity to see the guide and paper together • Lock the layout to prevent accidental movement FIND THE LINES THAT MATTER Use edge detection and image controls to create a clearer guide. Turn on the alignment grid to check proportions, mirror a reference when needed, or hide the controls for a distraction-free view. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your reference images stay local to your device. TraceOverlay keeps the tracing workflow focused on your art—not a cloud image library. MADE FOR CREATIVE WORK TraceOverlay is designed for artists, illustrators, lettering practitioners, muralists, art students, and hobbyists who want a portable tracing aid without extra projection hardware. Pick a reference, frame your paper, and start tracing.

What's new

Improved tracing and filter controls, clearer reference-image selection, and better camera permission recovery. Reset now restores camera and reference adjustments and turns tracing lines off.
