When the Pixel 9 series was announced, one of the camera features I thought I’d rarely, if ever, use was Add Me. I love standing behind the lens, not in front of it, so being forcibly added to group photos isn’t my jam. However, I quickly discovered that Add Me can be used on the same subject, which means I can stay hidden behind the lens and make my favorite photography subjects — read: my husband — begrudgingly change position in the same frame.

The results are funny clone photos that will make everyone smile, but you can use them creatively to snap photos of unlikely scenarios. Playing with a beach ball with your clone? Tanning your front side while your clone tans their back? Berating your clone in public? Anything is possible. I’ve barely scratched the surface of all the silliness this feature provides, but if you’re skeptical, I have a few tips to get you started.
