Questions, answered.
Everything people usually ask before and after installing SeeMyChange — what it does, where your photos live, and what Pro adds.
Getting started
What is SeeMyChange?
An app for taking the same photo of something again and again — your body, skin, hair, a baby, a pet, a plant — and comparing the results aligned. Each subject gets its own Journey, with its own photos, reminders and notes.
Which devices does it run on?
SeeMyChange is available for Android on Google Play. This website works in any browser, but the app itself is Android only for now.
Why do I sign in?
Signing in ties your account and your Pro subscription to you, so they can be restored on another phone. It doesn't upload your photos — private Journey photos stay on your device.
What can I track?
Body, Skin, Hair, Baby & Child, Pregnancy, Pet, Plant, or a Custom Journey for anything else that changes visually, like a renovation or a garden bed. The Free plan includes a limited number of active Journeys; Pro removes the limit.
Capturing and aligning
How does the Ghost Overlay work?
When you take a new photo, a faint copy of your previous one sits over the live camera. You move until the two line up, then take the shot — so pose, distance and angle stay the same from one photo to the next.
What are framing tips?
Short instructions per Journey on how to stand or hold the phone — facing the camera, turned to the side, shot from above. They turn an angle into something repeatable instead of something you have to remember.
What do guided alignment and auto-capture do?
They are part of Pro. The app checks how closely the live frame matches your reference photo and can take the picture itself once they line up. It only compares framing; it never analyses what is in the photo.
Comparing and exporting
Which comparison modes are there?
Side and Slider are free: two aligned photos next to each other, or a slider you drag across them. Overlay and Fade, which stack or cross-fade two photos, are part of Pro.
Can I make a timelapse or a video?
Yes. Transformation Studio turns a Journey into a single image, a Timelapse or a Transformation video. Free exports carry a watermark; Pro exports in 1080p without it.
Can I share a before and after without showing my face?
Transformation Studio can blur faces automatically when you export. Nothing leaves the app until you decide where to send the exported file.
Privacy and backup
Where are my photos stored?
Private Journey photos are encrypted and stored in the app's private storage on your phone. They are not uploaded to SeeMyChange servers.
Does the app measure or analyse my photos?
No. The on-device computer vision only helps line up the camera. It never measures, scores, diagnoses or labels anything in your photos.
How does backup work?
Encrypted Google Drive backup is part of Pro. The copy is encrypted on your phone first and stored in your own Google Drive, not on SeeMyChange servers.
What is Community?
An optional, opt-in feed. Only when you publish does a watermarked copy of the one photo you chose reach our servers — never the original or the rest of the Journey. Baby & Child Journeys can never be published there.
Plans and account
What is the difference between Free and Pro?
Free includes the Ghost Overlay, framing tips, Side and Slider comparison, reminders, the widget, notes and watermarked exports, with a limited number of active Journeys. Pro adds unlimited Journeys, Overlay and Fade, guided alignment and auto-capture, 1080p exports without a watermark, App Lock and encrypted Google Drive backup.
How do I cancel Pro?
Pro is a subscription billed through Google Play and renews automatically until you cancel it. You manage or cancel it from your subscriptions in the Google Play Store.
How do I delete my account?
Open Settings and choose Delete account, or use the account deletion page. You can close only the account and keep your Journeys on the phone, or delete the account and all local data. Deleting your account does not cancel an active Google Play subscription, so cancel that separately.
