Rephotography has been a popular research topic in the photography field for a long time. The purpose of rephotography itself is to repeatedly take photographs of the same scene at a different time. As a result, the sequence of rephotographs with the reference, often historical, the picture provides a compelling visualization of the evolution of the subject or capture its changes in time. However, the act of rephotography is difficult for the rephotographers as they have to cope with the ambiguous motions in six degrees of freedom and with the changes of the subject itself or its surrounding environment.      This thesis aims to create a mobile application that would help its users to capture a rephotograph more accurately and allow them to share the scenes amongst other users. The designed application uses available on-device sensors to navigate the user to the location and guide the user during the rephotography process to capture a precise rephotograph. Furthermore, the application contains user interface elements designed explicitly for rephotography. Moreover, the work describes topics about user interface design, iOS application development, and designing and deploying backend API for the mobile application.
