Add photos to a catch
- In the catch sheet, tap Add a photo (or the + tile when the catch already has photos).
- Choose:
- Take photo β opens the camera;
- Choose from library β opens your photo library; you can pick several photos at once.
To remove a photo from the catch, tap the Γ on its thumbnail. To add or remove photos on a saved catch, open it and tap β― β Edit.
Only photos can be added, not videos. The first photo you add is the one shown on the catch's card.
Look at the photos
Open the catch and tap the photo. Swipe left or right between photos, pinch or double-tap to zoom, and swipe down or tap β to close.
Where the photos are kept
- The photo files stay on your phone, inside the app. They are not uploaded to our servers.
- A photo you take in the app is also saved to your iPhone's photo library, if you allow it. The app asks the first time: "Save photos you take while logging a catch to your photo library."
- A photo you choose from the library is already in your library; the app keeps its own copy for the catch.
Because the files live only on your phone:
- deleting the app deletes the photos kept in the app;
- the photos do not appear on another phone;
- photos saved in your iPhone's photo library are not touched when you delete a catch, a photo in the app, or all your data.

Permissions
- Camera β asked the first time you tap Take photo.
- Add to Photos β asked after the first photo you take, to save a copy to your library. If you say no, the photo is still attached to the catch.
- Choose from library needs no permission: the app receives only the photos you pick and cannot browse your library.
If it does not work
- Nothing happens when I tap Take photo. The app has no access to the camera. Open the iOS Settings app, find the app's page and turn Camera on. You can always use Choose from library instead.
- A photo tile shows a circular arrow. The photo could not be added. Tap the tile to try again.
- A catch shows "No photo". The catch has no photo, or its file is not on this phone β for example after the app was reinstalled.
Good to know
There is no way to share or export a photo from the app. To share a picture, use the copy in your iPhone's photo library.
