Doodles — auto-placed illustrated overlays that read your photo and know where to land. Suns, hearts, corner frames, and more. Pro only. Double Exposure — blend two images together with SCREEN, LIGHTEN, OVERLAY, and SOFT LIGHT blend modes. Layer nature into a portrait, light into a skyline, anything into anything.

One of those effects you just have to try. Drag to reorder — long press any photo in the montage strip to pick it up and reorder without lifting your finger. Bug fixes and performance improvements throughout.
