A countdown on every photo
White means later, charcoal this week, red under a day.
No ads. No account.
The temporary camera
For the photos you need only for a while. Pick how long each one lives. It slowly fades, then deletes itself. Your gallery stays clean.

Every photo has a countdown. As the time runs out, it fades, a little more each day, until it's gone.

Bin · 48h
Gone for good
It waits in the Bin for 48 hours, in case you change your mind. Then it's deleted.
Expiring today
For the things you need only today
Where you parked, a receipt, a Wi-Fi password, the whiteboard after a meeting, the price tag you want to compare. Useful now, clutter tomorrow.
Keep what matters
Not everything should fade. Open a photo to see exactly how long it has left, and change your mind in one tap.
- Extend it by an hour, a day, a week or a month
- Keep it forever: save it to your gallery
- Add a short note: "Level 2, B14", "Bring the form"
- Select several photos to keep, extend, share or delete
Capture from your home screen
Three widgets, a Quick Settings tile and app shortcuts open the camera from anywhere.
- Latest photo: your newest or pinned photo, with its countdown
- Next to fade: the three photos that disappear soonest
- Quick capture: one tap into the camera, with its own expiry
48 hours to change your mind
When a photo expires, it moves to the Bin. Restore it, or delete it right away. After 48 hours it's gone for good.
One quiet notification a day tells you when photos are about to expire, only if you want it.
On phones and tablets
More photos at a glance on a bigger screen, in light and dark.
Private by design
Not in your gallery. Not in your backups.
Fadio has no internet permission, so nothing is uploaded and nothing is tracked.
No internet accessFadio can't send your photos anywhere. There's no server and no account.
Kept inside the appPhotos stay out of your gallery, where other apps can't read them.
No cloud backupsPhotos and notes are left out of backups and device transfers.
Optional app lockFingerprint, face or screen lock. While it's on, widgets hide your photos.
No ads, no analytics, no tracking. Read the privacy policy.

Deleting is the pointOnce a photo leaves the Bin, nobody can get it back. If it matters, tap Keep to save it to your gallery.
Uninstalling deletes everythingAll of Fadio's photos go with it, Bin included. Save anything you want first.
Timing can drift a littleAndroid may delay background work to save battery, so a photo can expire a bit later than its countdown, for example while your phone is off.
Once it leaves, it's not temporaryA photo you keep, share or screenshot is outside Fadio and isn't deleted.
No location in photosFadio doesn't add where you took a photo.
Snap it. Forget it.
