RuMeng turns videos you authorize and that Apple Photos can read into a full-screen viewing feed. No account is required. Allow Photos access to start revisiting your memories. • Full-screen playback: swipe vertically to switch videos in a continuous viewing feed. • Photos integration: double-tap to update Favorites. iOS asks you to confirm deletion before moving a video to Recently Deleted. • Local preferences: playback settings, the free playlist and viewing history stay on your device. Photos and videos are not uploaded to developer servers. • Control iCloud access: Apple Photos can retrieve cloud-only originals on demand. You can also enable local-only playback. • Free viewing: a fixed playlist of up to 10 videos each day. A notice appears when you reach the end, and you can keep replaying the playlist. • RuMeng Pro: unlimited viewing, album filters, original-quality preference, skip-watched playback and newest-first order. Accessible videos do not need to belong to a regular album. With limited Photos access, only your selected content can be read. Hidden albums are not read.
