Private photo gallery for Android and iPhone
The Facet app keeps screenshots, documents and private photos out of your everyday photo gallery, automatically. Everything happens on your phone.

How it works
On your phone
Your photos
Read in place and never changed. New photos are analysed as soon as you open Facet, the rest in the background.
Each photo is analysed
- Scene
- People

Default is cautious. Relaxed is less strict about beachwear.
Library
Looks fine.
Review
Not sure, or couldn't be read.
Filtered
Looks sensitive.
You decide
Move any photo yourself. Your choice always wins.
Unlock to open
Filtered and Review need your phone's own unlock.
New on iPhone
Photos and videos
Facet sorts photos, Live Photos and videos on your phone.
Utility
Documents and text-based screenshots go to their own place, behind your fingerprint, face or screen lock.
Facet Pro
Facets, album rules, schedules and app icons. The rest of Facet stays free.
What Facet doesn't do
Facet is a separate gallery. It doesn't change what Google Photos, your Photos app or any other app shows, and it never moves, edits or deletes a photo. Open Facet when you show someone your phone.
Facet sorts the obvious photos automatically and asks you about the rest. It sometimes gets one wrong, so check Review now and then.
Facet or a photo vault? →Questions
Does Facet upload my photos?
No. Your photos are analysed on your phone and Facet collects no data. A photo only leaves your phone if you share it yourself.
Will it move or delete anything?
No. Uninstall Facet and everything is exactly as it was.
Does Facet work on iPhone?
Yes, on iOS 18 or later. On iPhone, Facet uses Apple's own tools to analyse photos on the device.
Does Facet work with videos and Live Photos?
On iPhone, yes. Facet looks at them on your phone, the same way it looks at photos. Facet for Android checks photos for now.
Is Facet a photo gallery app?
Yes. It is a gallery you can open in front of other people, with private photos kept out of view. Your photos stay where they are.
