MeCam Privacy Policy

Last updated: 9 November 2026

MeCam is a film camera app for iPhone made by HomieLab. This policy explains what MeCam does with your information. In short: nothing leaves your iPhone.

What we collect

Nothing. MeCam has no account or sign-up, no ads, no analytics and no tracking. The app does not connect to the internet, so it cannot send your photos or any other information to us or to anyone else. Links in Settings (rate, share, more apps, homepage) open in the App Store or Safari.

Camera

MeCam uses the camera to show the viewfinder and take photos. The camera image is processed on your iPhone only and is never recorded or sent anywhere except into the photo you take.

Photos

• Your Photos library: MeCam asks for permission to add photos only. It saves each photo you take to your library and cannot see, read or change any other photo in it.
• MeCam's gallery: MeCam also keeps a copy of each photo you take inside the app, so you can browse your shots without giving MeCam access to your library. These copies stay on your iPhone, in MeCam's own storage. Deleting a photo in MeCam's gallery deletes only that copy; the photo in your library stays. Deleting the app deletes the gallery.
• Lock Screen camera: a photo taken on the Lock Screen while MeCam can't add to Photos is kept on your iPhone until you open MeCam, then saved to your library.
• Like all app data, MeCam's storage is part of your iPhone's backup (iCloud Backup or your computer) if you have backups turned on. That backup is yours and managed by Apple or your computer, not by us.

Location (optional)

Save Location in Settings is off by default. If you turn it on, MeCam asks for location access while you use the app and writes where each photo was taken into the photo itself (its GPS data). MeCam never sends the location to us or stores it anywhere else. A photo with a location keeps it when you share the file. When you open a photo's info in MeCam's gallery, the small map is drawn by Apple Maps.

Settings

Your choices in the app (selected film, adjustments, flash, grid and similar settings) are stored on your iPhone only.

Feedback

If you write to us at mecam@homielab.com, we receive your email address, your message and the details the app adds to the email (app version, iOS version and iPhone model). We use them only to reply and to improve MeCam, and we do not share them.

Children

MeCam collects no information from anyone, including children.

Changes

If this policy changes, we will update this page and the date above.
