Arrow is a second camera for practical photos: receipts, labels, work shots and references you want to keep separate from your personal photo library. CHOOSE WHERE PHOTOS GO Pick an album before you shoot. Find your photos inside Arrow, move them between albums, or import photos as copies. PREPARE A USEFUL COPY Crop a photo, Blur part of a photo or Mark up something worth noticing. Add a Timestamp or text Watermark. Save your edits as a new copy while keeping the original. MAKE SOMETHING YOU CAN SHARE Use Before & After to compare two photos, Contact sheet to bring selected photos together, or Make PDF to prepare a document. Share or export the result to a destination you choose. KEEP TEMPORARY PHOTOS ORGANIZED Use Auto Delete to schedule temporary photos to move to Recently Deleted when Arrow next refreshes. Find deleted photos in Recently Deleted and restore them while available. SET UP YOUR NEXT SHOTS Configure Timestamp and Watermark Actions for new captures. Save Location is optional: when enabled and permitted, it saves available location information with new photos. You can use the camera without it. YOUR PHOTO LIBRARY STAYS LOCAL No account is required. Arrow stores your photo library on your device; you choose when to share or export photos. Usage analytics, diagnostics and optional Feedback are described in our Privacy Policy. Your photos are not attached to those reports. Nine tools for practical photos: Crop, Blur, Mark up, Timestamp, Watermark, Before & After, Contact sheet, Make PDF and Auto Delete.
