PennyCam

A camera made for little hands.

What it does

PennyCam takes a photo with both cameras at once. The back camera fills the screen, and whoever is holding the phone appears in a small bubble in the corner — so one photo captures what your child pointed at and the look on their face.

How to use it

Take a photo — tap the big pink button, or tap anywhere on the screen.
Move the selfie bubble — drag it anywhere you like. It stays where you put it.
Find your photos — they save straight to your normal Photos app.

Common questions

Nothing happens when my child taps.
There's a short pause of about half a second between shots, so rapid taps don't flood your camera roll. Wait a moment and tap again.

The screen is black.
PennyCam needs permission to use the camera. Open Settings → PennyCam and turn on Camera.

Photos aren't saving.
Open Settings → PennyCam → Photos and make sure adding photos is allowed.

How do I stop my child leaving the app?
Use Apple's Guided Access: Settings → Accessibility → Guided Access. Turn it on, then triple-press the side button while PennyCam is open to lock them in.
