The camera that files your photos

Take the shot. It’s already sorted.

Photolog is a camera where every photo lands in the right album the moment you shoot it. Pottery class, balcony garden, the cat: one album per topic you track, kept in order without you lifting a finger.

Your albums

A place for every obsession.

Each topic gets its own album that fills itself. Watch the pottery album grow over a course, the bread album over a winter, the book album over a lifetime.

How it works

Organized at the moment of capture.

01

Pick an album

Tell Photolog what you’re shooting, once. Or don’t: the Inbox catches anything unassigned.

02

Take the shot

A full camera, nothing missing: flash, zoom, lens switching, macro, video. It just happens to know where photos belong.

03

It’s already sorted

Every shot files itself into the right album: timestamped, mapped, text extracted. No Sunday spent dragging photos into folders.

Albums

One album per topic you track.

Every album has a job. Make one for each thing you photograph again and again, and Photolog keeps it growing in order.

  • Inbox collects one-off shots so nothing gets lost
  • Counts and covers update themselves as you shoot
  • Pin the albums you’re using this week

Your library, your rules

Manage, share, import.

Albums aren’t a one-way street. Bring in old photos, see a project on a map, or hand a whole album to someone else.

  • Import from your camera roll straight into an album
  • Map view shows where an album happened
  • Share an album as one tidy package
On-device intelligence

Get the details, automagically.

Shoot a book cover, a wine label, a receipt. Photolog reads the text right on your iPhone and keeps it with the photo.

  • Extracted text you can copy, tap, and search
  • Notes for the things a camera can’t see
  • 100% on-device, nothing is sent anywhere

Sync & backup

Private sync to your iCloud.

Turn on sync and your albums follow you across devices, stored in your own private iCloud database, not on our servers. We don’t have any.

  • Encrypted in transit and at rest by Apple
  • Only your Apple ID can access your photos
  • Off by default, one toggle to enable
Privacy

No servers. No ads. No peeking.

Your photos live on your iPhone and, if you choose, in your private iCloud. Photolog has no servers, so we couldn’t look at your photos even if we wanted to. Analytics is opt-in and never includes your content.
