About PhotoBuddy: Travel Photo App
Want a photo of yourself while travelling, but hesitate to hand your unlocked phone to a stranger? PhotoBuddy is a way to get the photo without ever letting go of your phone. HOW IT WORKS 1. Show a QR code in the app 2. Whoever helps points their phone camera at it 3. They shoot from the page that opens, and the photos arrive on your phone The person helping installs nothing. No sign-up, no login. The only permission asked for is the camera. WHY IT WORKS THIS WAY Your phone stays with you. No unlocking it and handing it over - they shoot from a web page. Nothing is left on their phone. The camera page never saves a photo to the device taking it. You pick the language they read. Ask for help abroad and they see the instructions in their own language: English, Korean, Japanese and Spanish. Deleted after 30 minutes. Once delivered, the server removes the photos automatically. This cannot be undone. Their location never travels with the photo. All EXIF data is stripped before the photo is sent. USING IT Your first request works without signing in. Sign in to receive 3 more free uses. A use is spent only when a photo actually reaches your gallery - showing a QR code, and receiving photos you do not keep, are both free. If you need more, 5 or 20 additional uses are available as a one-time purchase. There is no subscription. MADE FOR Solo travellers who want more than selfies Anyone uneasy about handing over a phone Places a selfie stick cannot fit into the frame Available in English, Korean, Japanese and Spanish Contact: [email protected]
