Keep time, place and on-site notes together with your photos and videos. Watermark Camera helps you document construction progress, property inspections, field visits, travel and everyday moments. LIVE WATERMARK PREVIEW See your watermark in the viewfinder before you shoot. Use the front or rear camera, with flash, focus and zoom where supported by your device. SIX SCENE TEMPLATES Choose Time & Place, Work Check-in, Construction, Property Inspection, Travel or Baby Memories. Add names, project details, work notes or other text. Each template remembers its own settings. MAKE THE DETAILS YOURS Show or hide automatic fields and edit your own text. Choose from four corner positions, three sizes and four accent colors. WATERMARKED VIDEO Watermarks are rendered into the video itself, with time updating during recording. Record with sound or in silent mode, then preview, save or share the result. CAPTURE AND COMBINE Take 2–4 on-site photos and arrange them in a vertical collage. Four photos can also form a 2-by-2 grid. Each image retains its own capture-time watermark. ADD A WATERMARK TO ONE PHOTO Select one still image with the system photo picker and save a new watermarked copy without replacing the original. Imported photos keep a visible source label. Missing original time or location is shown as unavailable rather than replaced with current information. LOCAL PROCESSING, NO ACCOUNT Photos, videos and collages are created on your device. Save to Photos or use the iOS share sheet. No account or ads. Camera, location, microphone and add-only Photos permissions are requested for the relevant features. You can take photos without location access and record silent video without microphone access. Paid download with all features available after installation. No in-app purchases, subscriptions or membership unlocks. PLEASE NOTE The app interface is currently in Simplified Chinese. Timestamps use your device clock. Location and addresses depend on system services and permissions; address lookup may require an internet connection. Weather is not integrated and weather fields are hidden. Watermarks are everyday annotations and do not provide certified timestamps, tamper-proof verification or legal proof.
