Sub Camera is a private camera app built for one core purpose: taking photos that do not automatically remain in your default Photos album. Instead of filling your main camera roll with temporary shots, references, documents, work images, or private captures, Sub Camera stores photos inside its own in-app library by default. That means you can shoot freely, sort later, and keep your main Photos app cleaner. You can organize captures into folders as you shoot, switch save folders with a swipe, and browse everything inside a separate gallery. For short-lived images, 24h Camera automatically removes photos after 24 hours. For receipts, papers, and printed materials, Document Scan helps you capture cleaner document images. You can also add memos, mark up photos, and export or save selected images to the iPhone Photos app only when you want to. 1) Sub Camera is ideal for: -Temporary photos you do not want in your main album -Work references and documentation -Receipts, notes, and scanned documents -Personal captures you want to manage separately -Keeping your default Photos library cleaner and more intentional 2) Key features: -In-app private photo library by default -Optional save to the iPhone Photos app -Folder-based capture and organization -24-hour auto-delete camera mode -Document scan and adjustment tools -Memo and markup support -Korean and English support
