LightRoll

Two shutters. Keep or Temp.

Choose Keep or Temp when you shoot, so receipts, parking spots, and one-off photos do not pile up in Photos or iCloud.

Keep

Keep saves it for good. Temp saves it for now. One tap, made at the moment.

The dual-shutter system

Keep what matters. Temp the rest.

Make the choice when you shoot, not later when your library is full of maybes.

Keep

Photos that stay forever

Birthday candles, first steps, the sunset that stopped you in your tracks. Tap Keep and it's saved for good.

  • You choose which album they go to
  • Never expires
  • Your permanent memories
Temp

Photos that are just for now

Parking spots, receipts, whiteboard notes, that thing you need to remember for an hour. Tap Temp and stop worrying.

  • Saved to your Temp album
  • Expires after the time you set
  • One tap to clear when ready

Two shutters. One decision when you shoot.

Save storage

Stop paying for photos you never meant to keep.

LightRoll catches throwaway shots at capture, then helps clear them before they become another reason to upgrade your cloud storage.

Temp first Receipts, parking spots, labels, and notes start outside your forever roll.
Clean later Expired Temp photos surface together, ready for one intentional cleanup.
Keep stays special Your photo library has more memories and fewer storage-plan maybes.
