How To Add One Photo Onto Another Iphone

Download Article

The default Photo app does not have the ability to create overlapping photos, so you'll need to use a third-party app like Snapseed. This wikiHow will show you how to use a third-party app to overlay pictures on an iPhone.

Steps

1
Download Snapseed from the App Store . Snapseed is a photography-editing app developed by "Google LLC" that's free.^[1]
- Search the App Store for "Snapseed" by tapping the magnifying glass tab in the bottom right corner of your screen, then tap Get.
2
Open Snapseed. This app icon looks like a multi-shaded green leaf that you can find on one of your Home screens.
- Tap Open within the App Store app if that's still open so you don't have to search for Snapseed.

Tap the screen anywhere or tap Open in the top right corner of your screen. Your gallery will open for you to navigate on the picture you want to overlay.

Tap Tools. This is centered at the bottom of your screen, under your photo. If this is already expanded, you can skip this step.

Tap Double Exposure . You might have to scroll through the menu to find this option next to an icon of two overlapping circles.

Edit the pictures as you'd like. Using your fingers, you can pinch together to make the second image smaller; pull your fingers apart to make the image larger. Twist your fingers to angle the photo, and drag and drop it where you want it.
- Tap the tag icons in the menu along the bottom of your screen to be able to change how the two photos interact with each other. You can use the default settings or use Lighten, Darken, Add, Subtract, or Overlay.
- Tap the drop to change the opacity of the second image overlaying the first. Drag the dot on the bar left to make the second image fainter and drag it right to make it darker.

Tap . You'll see this checkmark icon in the bottom right corner of your screen. This will apply the double-exposure changes you just made and return you to the main screen.
- You have the opportunity to continue through the Looks and Tools menus to continue editing your photo.
