Arrow is a second camera for practical photos. Use Arrow for receipts, labels, whiteboards, work photos, and quick references without mixing them into your Camera Roll. Choose where each photo saves before you shoot: keep it in Unfiled, or capture straight into an album. Inside Arrow, you can review photos, move them between albums, share them with the native iOS share sheet, or delete them when you no longer need them. Stash is now Arrow. If you used Stash Camera before, your existing photos remain in the app. Older Stash Vault photos remain reviewable through the existing local Vault path, and older temporary photos can be reviewed and moved to Unfiled or an album. Arrow stores photos locally inside the app on your iPhone. There is no account, no ads, and no cloud photo library. This update does not add cloud backup, active auto-delete, new Arrow encrypted storage, Camera Roll saving by default, or saved location metadata.

Your camera roll is full of screenshots you saved for a reason — and can never find again. Pixdex fixes that. Snap or import a photo, tag it in seconds, and search to pull it back up the moment you need it. WHY PIXDEX • Capture in a tap — screenshots, photos, anything worth keeping. • Tag fast — a label or two is all it takes to find it later. • Search that works — by tag, by note, or by what's in the photo. • Collections for the big buckets, tags for everything that cuts across. • Private by design — everything stays on your device. No account, no servers, no tracking, no ads. OPTIONAL AI (BRING YOUR OWN KEY) Turn on AI to auto-suggest tags and collections using your own provider key. It runs only when you ask, and your key never leaves your device's Keychain. YOURS TO KEEP Export a backup anytime. Lock with Face ID. Choose from light and dark themes. Pixdex is the calm, private home for what inspires you — and the fastest way to find it again.
