Take private photos that delete themselves. TempCam stores images only inside the app — never in your gallery. Set a timer and your photos disappear automatically. No sign-up, no backups, just quick and secure snapshots for receipts, notes, or private moments. TempCam supports Face ID for an extra layer of security. Only you can access your private photos inside the app. Even if someone opens your phone, your photos stay protected.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: TempCam at Free against Delayte's $0.99. TempCam also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 92%). Delayte's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 6 months). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
