Unselfy® is a freelance camera app that allows you to have other users take your photo without handing them your phone or giving them your contact information. You can receive and take photos all from the same app! To start getting photos from another user, simply have them use their Unselfy® app to scan your unique Unselfy ® QR code. Other users are not able to save your photos to their devices. The photos are sent almost instantly to your device through the Unselfy® cloud which stores the photos for a short period of time only. Once you receive your photos in your Unselfy® app, you can save them to your camera roll or share them to your social media. All of this happens without anyone else touching your phone! They don't have to know your phone number. They don't even have to know your name. Yeah. It's that simple. Photographer Highlights: Keep yourself safe by not touching someone else’s phone to take pictures of them! No photos are saved in your device, so no storage space is used! Requestor Highlights: No more selfies – have someone else take that picture of you and your friends. No need to hand someone your phone to take pictures. Your photos are yours alone – the photographer does not have them. No need to exchange personal information with a photographer.
