About

Work Camera

Read full description

Keep work photos separate from everyday life. Work Camera stores the photos you capture in its own local library, without automatically adding them to Apple Photos. No account is required. IMPORTANT: The app interface is currently available in Traditional Chinese only. • Capture photos and organize them by case, with notes and date or text search. • Select multiple photos with a swipe. • Import images using the system photo picker or receive screenshots and images through the iOS share sheet. The share sheet closes automatically after successful saving; images are organized into the library the next time you open the app. Originals in Apple Photos are not deleted. • Copy an image, return to your existing conversation and paste it. Receiving-app support may vary. • Optionally provide original-image copies in Files for apps that accept image files. Copies use extra storage and may retain original metadata. Some apps, including the tested ChatGPT Files picker, cannot select images here. Use copy and paste with ChatGPT. Turning this option off removes the copies, not files already shared elsewhere. • Share 1–10 photos through the iOS share sheet, including LINE when installed. Delivery is handled by the selected service. • Export original images to Files. Add a copy to Apple Photos only when you choose to. • Export a full backup and merge it when restoring, with integrity checks and conflict copies. • Recover deleted photos from Recently Deleted for 30 days; expired items are cleaned up when the app opens. Existing capture, organization, sharing and backup features are free. Previous purchasers retain their existing features. Reviews are voluntary and do not affect access. No account, ads, subscription or custom cloud service. Photos use device storage. Export and verify a complete backup before deleting the app or changing phones. Backup files have no custom password; keep them in a trusted location. Cloud file-provider synchronization is managed by that provider. Camera capabilities vary by device. Requires an iPhone with iOS 18 or later. Support: support@primer.musofixr.com
