About MyPics - A Powerful PhotoAlbum
Having trouble managing your photos and videos? MyPics is an album app that has been improving for over 10 years.
MyPics organizes your photos and videos in albums (folders) and allows you to quickly hide and save data you don't want others to see with a few simple operations. Your important data is protected by a passcode, so your privacy is well protected.
## Fit for people like this
- People who want to organize their photos and videos with an easy and simple app.
- People who have a problem with their family or friends viewing their camera roll without their permission.
- People who have too many photos and can't find the one they want to see.
- People who are looking for a safe album app.
## Recommendations
(1) Secure data design
Photos and videos imported from the camera roll are not compressed, but the original data is saved. Exif data such as shooting date and time and location information also remain intact. No photo/video data in the app is sent to the server.
(2) Passcode protection
Locking the app with a passcode ensures that no one can see your important images and private videos. Passcode / Face ID / Touch ID are supported.
(3) Easy importing
You can import photos and videos from the Photos app in a batch. Imported photos and videos can be easily deleted with the auto-delete function. The design is also friendly, allowing users to see at a glance which photos have already been imported.
(4) Folder classification in album format
Photos and videos can be organized by freely creating albums. Multiple albums can be grouped into album sets for easy sorting, and you can freely sort them by date or name.
(5) Dropbox support
You can automatically back up imported photos and videos to Dropbox. The expert version also supports restoring data from Dropbox, making it easy to transfer data to other devices.
(6) Customize to your liking
You can set your favorite photo as the album cover and change the wallpaper by selecting your favorite design from more than 50 different themes.
(7) Easy-to-use image viewer
The size of the preview can be freely changed by pinching in/out, and videos can be played directly with the embedded player in the app. Memo input function and GIF animation are also supported.
(8) Calendar display support
How many photos did I take this month? What did I do this time last year? You can look back on your memories from the unique perspective of a calendar.
(9) Filter Camera
The filter camera is equipped with a filter that applies filters in real time. Enjoy taking pictures that are different from those taken with a regular camera.
(10) Photo Editor and Video Editor
Photos and videos imported into the app can be quickly edited directly in the photo editor and video editor within the app.
(11) File exchange with PC/Mac
Original photos and videos saved in the app can be transferred to a PC using iTunes File Sharing. Data import from PC is also supported.
(12) Convenient search function
Photos and videos can be searched by memo, tag, or file name. Map display is also supported, so you can search for photos by location.
