Mochi – Instant Camera
Privacy policy
Last updated: 7 November 2026Mochi (“the app”) is an instant camera for iPhone: ten shots a pack, no retakes, and prints that develop slowly. It is built so that your photos stay on your phone. The app is made by Nilmani Kumar, an independent developer.
In short: no account, no servers, no analytics, no advertising,
no tracking. The app never connects to the internet. We do not collect, sell or share any personal data.
What the app uses, and where it stays
| What | Why | Where it goes |
|---|---|---|
| Camera | Take photos in the app | Photos are stored only inside the app on your iPhone. |
| Photo Library (add only) | Save a print to Photos when you tap Save | Only the print you choose is added. The app cannot see your existing photos. |
| Motion | Make prints catch the light as you tilt the phone, and let a shake speed up developing | Used live and never stored. |
| Prints, captions and settings | Your album, packs and preferences | Stored only on your iPhone. Deleting the app deletes them. |
Sharing
When you share a print, it goes only where you send it, through the standard iOS share sheet. The app itself sends nothing anywhere.
Your choices
You can turn camera and Photos access off at any time in the iPhone Settings app. To delete everything the app stores, delete the app.
Children
The app does not collect information from anyone, including children.
