HideCam: Hidden Cam

Some conversations you need a record of. HideCam records photo, video and audio while its own screen stays black — no preview, no controls, nothing on display that announces what the phone is doing. Everything you capture is encrypted on your iPhone and stored inside the app, not in your photo library. RECORD DISCREETLY • Blackout screen — no interface at all while recording • Alternative covers: a dim clock, a charging screen, a notepad • Start and stop with the volume buttons, without touching the display • Feedback by vibration, so you know it is running without looking • Photo, video or audio-only; front or rear camera; portrait or landscape AN ENCRYPTED VAULT, NOT YOUR CAMERA ROLL • AES-GCM encryption with a key held in your device's keychain • Protected by a passcode and Face ID • Import existing photos and videos, and remove the originals from Photos in one step • Search, day-by-day grouping, favourites and notes • Excluded from iCloud and iTunes backups BUILT FOR YOUR OWN SITUATIONS • A duress passcode that opens a decoy album instead of your real vault • A break-in log that photographs whoever enters the wrong passcode • A calculator disguise — the app opens as a working calculator • Panic wipe destroys the encryption key, not just the files PRIVATE BY CONSTRUCTION • No account. No sign-in. No servers. • No analytics, no advertising, no tracking • Nothing you record ever leaves your iPhone — we cannot see it, and nor can anyone else BEFORE YOU START Recording laws vary. Many places require the consent of everyone recorded, especially for audio. HideCam is made for documenting situations you are part of, not for monitoring other people, and it says so before you can use it. HideCam also cannot hide the recording indicator iOS itself displays — no app can. It blacks out its own interface, and is honest about the difference. SUBSCRIPTION Recording and the vault require a plan. Everything else is free to explore.
