Photos only you can find

What SheMi does

Shoot straight into the vault

Photos taken with SheMi never pass through the system camera roll. They are written into the app sandbox, marked excluded from iCloud backups. The Photos app cannot see them — and neither can anyone scrolling through it.

SheMi camera interface

Decoy album with a fake passcode

Set a second, fake passcode. Enter it and SheMi opens an ordinary-looking album of harmless photos. The real vault stays invisible — for the moments when someone insists on unlocking your phone.

Passcode + Face ID

Face ID runs inside the Secure Enclave — SheMi only receives the system's yes/no answer. Wrong passcode attempts trigger escalating lockouts.

Notes, search, groups

Two-column gallery with notes under each card. Search hits the words you wrote. Group photos into albums. Screen-recording protection hides the app's content while recording.

Privacy, in plain words

Three promises we can verify

Your photos never upload

There is no server to upload to. The app works fully offline; the only network path is feedback you choose to send.

No account, no tracking

No sign-up. No analytics SDK. No advertising SDK. No third-party code reading your photos.

Leaving is always easy

Export to the camera roll, ZIP to your computer, or LAN transfer. Your photos are yours, always.

Pricing

One payment. Keep your photos.
