What Dark Clean is for

Plain frames that get out of the way. When the transformation is the whole point and nothing on screen should compete with it. Within that, Dark Clean is the free option: a 2-stop gradient behind the pair, with a 2 pt #6C5CE7 divider holding the two halves apart.Labels sit bottom centre in Inter Bold.

How to use it

  1. Open the app and pick your before photograph, from the gallery or straight from the camera.
  2. Shoot or pick the after. Ghost Camera lays the before over the live viewfinder at up to 70 percent opacity so the two line up, and it is free.
  3. Choose Dark Clean in the template picker. It is free, so it opens straight away.
  4. Pick a comparison mode: slider, side by side, top and bottom, or tap to switch. All four are free and all four preview live.
  5. Export. A video is 3 to 7 seconds, a GIF loops at 480 px, and an image comes out at your chosen ratio.

If you are not sure the pair is good enough yet, put it through the free browser slider first. It runs entirely on your own device and it will show you a mismatch in about two seconds. The guide to why before and afters look fake covers what to do about it.

Honest limits

The video export takes its layout from the reveal animation rather than from the comparison mode, so a top and bottom or tap to switch arrangement reaches an image export but not a video one yet. That is a known fix, logged for the next release. A GIF is a simple looping slider reveal and does not reproduce the template exactly. And the input is always two still photographs: there is no clip comparison, no trimming and no timeline anywhere in the app.

Common questions

Is the Dark Clean template free?
Yes. Dark Clean is one of the 8 templates the free tier unlocks. Free exports are capped at three a day, each behind a short rewarded ad, and carry a watermark until you upgrade.
What shape does Dark Clean produce?
The template's canvas is 1:1 square. The export ratio is a separate choice made in the export sheet: 9:16 and 1:1 on the free tier, plus 4:5 and the original ratio on Pro.
Can I change the BEFORE and AFTER wording?
Yes. Dark Clean starts with "Before" and "After" and every part of that is editable: the text, the typeface, the colour, the size, bold and italic, uppercase, a shadow, the background opacity, and the position, either one of five presets or dragged anywhere on the canvas.
Can I compare two video clips with this?
No, and nothing in the app can. The input is two still photographs. The word video in the name refers to the output: an MP4 at 1080p, a looping GIF, or a still image.
