Visual Log
Read full descriptionHide full description
Built for professionals who document clients visually: dermatologists, doctors, personal trainers, physical therapists, and estheticians. Visual Log keeps client photos and videos out of your personal camera roll and organizes them into secure individual profiles. BEFORE & AFTERS Generate clean side-by-side comparisons in seconds. Share them to motivate clients and build your portfolio. ALIGNED FOLLOW-UPS The camera overlays the previous photo in the viewfinder, so every shot matches the same angle, visit after visit. Bulk import from your library is built in. MARK IT UP Draw and jot notes on photos with Apple Pencil or your finger. Marks live on a separate layer, the original stays untouched. CLIENT PROFILES A separate profile for every client: track transformations, recovery stages, and aesthetic changes over time. TEAMS (PREMIUM) Invite a colleague with a single link and run a shared client base: an assistant adds photos, the practitioner sees them instantly. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Visual Log collects nothing and has no servers: everything stays on your device, with an optional Face ID lock. Premium syncs encrypted through your personal iCloud across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. FREE, WITHOUT LIMITS The core app is completely free: unlimited photos, videos, and client profiles on your device. Premium adds iCloud sync and backup, plus Teams. TERMS OF USE https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
