United StatesSave your photos from accidental — or deliberate! — deletion by toddlers, clients, or anyone that can't be trusted. Peek-a-View is a read-only photo gallery. Using Peek-a-View, you can always feel safe sharing your photos with anyone, because there is literally no way to have Peek-a-View delete your photos. In fact, Peek-a-View does not write ANY data back to your photo library. When paired with the Guided Access feature on iOS and iPadOS, you can lock your device into Peek-a-View, ensuring that the only thing that device can do is look at photos, until you decide otherwise. By default, Peek-a-View will show your most recent photos in your photo gallery, but it can be configured to only show a specific album. Furthermore, access to Peek-a-View's settings is automatically restricted when Guided Access is started. Peek-a-View will show you your 20 most recent photos for free; a one-time in-app purchase will remove that limitation. Peek-a-View fully supports Dark Mode, Dynamic Type, Live Photos, videos, and animated GIFs. With purchase, it also supports several alternative icons. Born from a trip to an amusement park with a very independent toddler, Peek-a-View was written so that my wife and I can give our phones to our precocious two-year-old and know that she won't accidentally delete any of our precious memories. Without Peek-a-View, we'd have to hope that she didn't figure out how to delete anything, or spend time fiddling with the Guided Access settings to block out the delete features on the Photos app. With Peek-a-View, we can simply open the app, start Guided Access, and hand her the phone. No deletion, no modifications, no worries.

don't give this guy your money
United StatesFinally fixed the bug where it couldn’t see albums
1. I’m a paid user 2. Couldn’t use the feature to pick a different album than Recent for years 3. Now it started working Casey was very kind and apologetic when I reached out, but we had been unable to tell what was wrong. Now it’s working and I’m happy!
United StatesPretty good; interactions are a little finicky
Both me and my toddler find ourselves swiping photos away when we try to swipe left and right between photos. My phone also seems to get hot when using the app — maybe it’s related to the loading the live previews? I’d love an option for a more traditional grid as the photo cropping is odd. And a black background when viewing photos.
United StatesPerfect for controlling access to pictures and videos on your device
The app makes handing your phone over to another person to view photos much less fraught. While it is geared to allowing kids to play with pictures and videos in a controlled setting, it also works great with sharing a curated set of pictures with adults. It transforms your phone, in the best way possible, into a single use device: a picture (and video) frame.
United StatesGreat app for kids!
I love being able to let my little guy just mess with my phone and look at pictures on his own (which he loves to do) without worrying that he might delete something. The simpler UI is also good because he can navigate it well by himself.
United StatesGreat for my 4 year old!
Loves to take and look at pics, so now I can let her have some independence with that.
United StatesGood idea, useful app
Good idea for an app that we use frequently. Does exactly what it says it does which is provide a way to see photos and videos without providing any ability to destroy to create new. We use it for our toddler.
United States
Some freshening up, mostly in Settings.
