Vesic is an open source android app which provides the user several options to compare two images the way they want to.

I started the project to create an app for an art teacher to easily compare images in different ways. After publishing the app, I received a lot of positive feedback. I also enjoyed learning about Android, so I decided to continue working on the app.
In the beginning, the app only had two comparison modes. I decided to release the app early to get user feedback. To do this, I published my app on both F-Droid and the App Store. F-Droid is an open source app store for FOSS apps. I also provided the github repo link and my email address to receive feedback. With the feedback I received, I continued to develop the app to what it is now.
Comparison modes:
- Side by Side: Show the images side by side
- Overlay Tap: Place the images behind each other and tap on the screen to quickly switch between them
- Overlay Slide: Place the images behind each other and adjust the width of the image in the front
- Transparent: Place the images behind each other and adjust the transparency of the image in the front
- MetaData: (Beta) Show all Meta Data, like Exif Data, side by side
- Overlay Cut: Cut the image from one point to another
You can find it in the Google Play Store as well as the F-Droid Store
The app is open source and can be found on my GitHub as well.
This App was the first I ever created and I was able to learn a lot about the android app lifecycle and how android apps work. It was a very nice learning experience and I am still keeping the App up to date.
