Capture photos and sign them using unique Trusted image Service! Be a part of the new content trust level. Trusted image signed photos are regular JPEG files with our unique signature integrated to verify image (photo) consistency in time. The Service is designed to operate without user registration, passwords or personal data sharing, and so does this application. Capture moments without filters, without AIs, just light, depth and sensors... and The Trusted image Signature. What's differentiates such photo from others is its ability to be later identified and verified against several key indices such as image, depth, date and time and location integrities. This allows: - you to provide authentic/trusted photo content when necessary or you just want to - the consumers of such content the ability to verify themselves, that the photo they're looking at (or process automatically) doesn't get tampered by accident or intentionally ... but also requires a little bit of care around, such content can be precious. Signing: - Your captured photos are sent at your command to the Trusted image Service to be signed - You can export or delete signed photos. Unsigned photos can be signed or deleted. - Create smaller, signed copies of your photos for easy sharing. IMPORTANT: Always keep your signed photo originals safe if you want to later operate with them in terms of full authenticity with authorship proves. Preferred locations are your Photos library/iCloud Folder/Local folder. You can check by exporting single signed photo, copying it from the destination location, paste to the Trusted image app and verifying. If the result is all "Original", the destination is safe. Export, Privacy & Usage: - We've implemented several handy metadata export variants for exported photos depending on your needs and preferences (Full, No GPS, No Date-Time, No GPS and Date-Time) so you can publish content while maintaining your privacy. You can export/share signed photos to your Photos or any available location. WARNING: Please, choose a location/share that doesn't modify the photo as it will cause the pixels signature corruption on exported photo. You can also verify photos using the application. 1. Just copy any JPEG image presumably signed by the Trusted image Service into your iPhone's pasteboard 2. Launch or switch to the Trusted image app and allow the pasteboard input when asked. 3. You'll be presented with the simple verification interface. NOTES: The Trusted image paradigm doesn't allow photo edits, therefore the application won't allow you to do any modifications above the camera settings prior to the capture. The depth capture requirement limits capture capabilities. Every network operation is highly secured and encrypted and occurs in one cycle. No photo unrelated data are being collected or sent ever outside your device. Signatures and Verifications are rate limited by your current tier. INTERFACE TIP: The application is focused on single-hand operations preparing the capture (focus, zoom, exposure, etc.) so you can setup most of available settings while holding the phone with the same hand. You can switch left/right (top/bottom) sides of the capture interface by dragging the capture button towards your preferred side for the controls. EULA: https://www.newball.cz/en/trusted-image-eula/
