Macro stacking · iOS & Android

Impossibly sharp. Impossibly close.

StackFocus turns your phone into a professional macro camera. One tap sweeps focus through your subject, stacks the sharpest pixels from every frame, and exports one tack-sharp photograph — no computer, no cloud, no subscription.

Macro has a
paper-thin problem.

Two centimetres from your subject, a camera can only hold a sliver thinner than a credit card in focus. Everything in front of it, and everything behind it, melts away. One shot was never going to be enough.

even if your hands weren't still.

One impossible photograph.

One tap.

The actual capture flow — sweep · align · stack

04

Everything the pros do.
None of the desk work.

Automatic focus sweep

One tap drives the lens through your whole subject — 12 to 28 frames, metered to the scene. Macro lock means the lens never jumps mid-stack.

Handheld is fine

Every frame is re-registered with dense optical flow — pixel by pixel, not just globally. Tripods optional, shaky hands forgiven.

True 48 MP export

The stack is recomposed at full sensor resolution when you export. Every hair, every facet, every scale — kept.

Live focus peaking

See exactly what's sharp before you shoot — painted over the live view in amber, tuned for macro's razor-thin planes.

Edit the master

Light, colour and detail on a 16-bit master — non-destructive, re-editable, with your look applied to every stack.

Private by design

No account. No cloud. No analytics in the app. The entire pipeline — capture to export — runs on your phone.

StackFocus has no servers to send anything to. Your macro work is yours — captured, stacked, edited and exported without a single byte leaving the device.

05

Pay once. That's it.

Android: a phone whose rear camera allows manual focus; StackFocus checks at launch. More
