Capture without attention

Features & Capabilities

Discreet - Black Screen Camera lets you capture photos and videos without drawing attention. With Black Screen and Custom Screen modes, you can shoot without lighting up your surroundings, while 4K video, autofocus, image stabilization, burst mode, and Apple Watch control keep your workflow smooth. Instant access is provided via the Lock Screen widget, and media stays private in a local gallery with no cloud uploads.

Designed for privacy-conscious use, it's ideal for concerts, street photography, and events where a low-profile setup is preferred. Use responsibly and follow local laws; the app does not upload media to the cloud, and the developer isn't liable for user actions.

User Reviews

Summary: Users praise the discreet black-screen concept and easy photo capture, with some positive feedback on support. However, recurring issues dominate: videos sometimes don’t save or export, recording stops early and audio can drop, zoom and image quality are inconsistent, a green recording indicator stays on, and the app experiences stability issues across updates and iOS versions. Common requests include better camera controls (exposure/stabilization), 48MP support, and options like screen-lock during recording and a browser-like interface.

Pros

Discreet black screen capability with the option to display a custom image and high-resolution video (4K/60fps).
Easy one-tap photo capture (tap anywhere on the screen to take a picture).
Positive feedback and responsive support from the Discreet team.
Generally solid app with discreet design and straightforward use.

Cons

Video data often doesn't save or finalize, and exporting data is blocked.
Zoom/quality issues: .5x equals 1x, wrong zoom on iPhone 15, and lack of 48MP support.
Recording can stop early or lose audio on longer videos.
Persistent green indicator light remains on, compromising discreetness.
Stability and compatibility problems after updates and on newer iOS versions; crashes or unusable camera.
