Most photo apps want your whole library. Portfolio10 wants your best ten. Pick exactly ten photos — no more — and build the portfolio that actually represents your work. Tag each one by niche (portrait, landscape, wildlife, automotive, sports, street, architecture), log the gear and settings behind it, and re-rank your whole top 10 head-to-head with Tournament mode when a new shot deserves a spot. DISCOVER OTHER PHOTOGRAPHERS Publish your portfolio — entirely optional, and reversible anytime — and it shows up in Discover, where anyone can search by niche, gear brand, or location, or browse who's nearby. Follow photographers whose work you like, heart your favorite shots, and message anyone who follows you back. BUILT FOR PRIVACY, NOT JUST COMPLIANT WITH IT Portfolio10 works completely offline if you want it to — no account, no publishing, no data leaving your device. Signing in and publishing are both explicit, manual choices, and you can permanently delete your published portfolio, or your entire account, from Settings at any time. GEAR, TRACKED PROPERLY Log every body, lens, and accessory you shoot with, organized by brand. Attach EXIF details — aperture, shutter speed, ISO, focal length, lens — to each photo automatically on import, or edit them by hand.
