iPhone

View photos and videos together in a protected viewer. Free basic version, a 7-day Plus trial, profiles, slideshows, sleep timer and quiet mode. No subscription. PhotoViewer makes sharing photos and videos simple and safe — especially for families with children. You decide which media can be viewed. While browsing, photos and videos cannot accidentally be edited, deleted, moved or shared. The protected parent area uses a personal PIN or, optionally, iPhone authentication. FREE BASIC VERSION • View photos and videos full screen • Swipe through media with simple controls • Show all media, photos only or videos only • Protect the parent area with a personal four- or six-digit PIN • Allow iCloud downloads on Wi-Fi only or disable them completely • Light and dark appearance matching the iPhone setting • No advertising, tracking or user account PHOTOVIEWER PLUS PhotoViewer Plus adds useful family features: • Create separate child profiles • Select specific albums for each profile • Run automatic slideshows with adjustable intervals and random order • Open the parent area with Face ID, Touch ID or the device passcode • Show or hide a compact thumbnail preview • Adjust the protected hold duration for leaving the media viewer • Limit a media session to 1–60 minutes • Extend expired usage time after protected parent confirmation • Use a profile-specific sleep timer from 5 to 120 minutes • End playback calmly and allow more time only after protected confirmation • Use quiet mode without thumbnails, time displays or video controls • Show photos in full or crop them to fill the screen • Choose a black or ambient background • Optionally start videos muted PhotoViewer Plus is a one-time purchase. There is no subscription. TRY PLUS FREE FOR 7 DAYS The complete Plus feature set can be tried once for seven days at no cost. The trial ends automatically, does not renew, starts no purchase and causes no charge. The free basic version remains available afterwards. Saved profiles and settings stay on the device, while Plus-only features remain locked until Plus is purchased. GERMAN AND ENGLISH PhotoViewer automatically uses German when the iPhone language is German and English for every other device language. You can also choose German or English manually in the app settings. PRIVACY PhotoViewer requires no account and contains no advertising, tracking or analytics. Photos, videos, profiles and settings are not uploaded to developer-operated servers. iCloud media is loaded only through Apple services. Tip: For an especially restricted viewing experience, also use Apple Guided Access. Step-by-step instructions are included in PhotoViewer.
