Longsnap

Privacy Policy

Effective 23 October 2026

Short version: your photos and screenshots never leave your iPhone. Longsnap stitches them on your device. There is no account, no advertising and no tracking. The only thing Longsnap sends is anonymous crash reports.

What Longsnap accesses

To stitch screenshots, Longsnap asks for access to your photo library. It reads only the screenshots you pick in the photo picker, and their details (date and size), on your device. With Limited Access it can only use the photos you allowed. You can change access at any time in Settings › Longsnap › Photos.

When you tap Save, Longsnap adds the stitched image to your library. When you choose to delete the original screenshots, Longsnap asks iOS to delete them; iOS shows its own confirmation first.

What stays on your iPhone

Longsnap keeps your recent stitched images and which screenshots they came from, plus your settings, inside the app on your device. This data is never sent anywhere. Deleting the app removes it.

What Longsnap does not do

Feature requests

Settings › Feature Requests opens Longsnap's public board on Canny in Safari. Longsnap sends nothing to it; anything you post or vote there is between you and Canny, under Canny's privacy policy.

iCloud Photos

If a screenshot you pick is stored only in iCloud ("Optimize iPhone Storage"), Apple's Photos framework downloads it from your iCloud so it can be stitched. That happens between your iPhone and Apple, under Apple's privacy policy; Longsnap receives nothing else.

Deleting screenshots

Longsnap only deletes screenshots after you confirm in the iOS system prompt. Deleted items move to Recently Deleted in the Photos app, where you can recover them for 30 days.

Crash and performance reports

To find and fix bugs, Longsnap sends crash reports, reports of the app freezing, and a sample of performance measurements to Sentry, an error-monitoring service. They contain technical details only: the error and code location, app version, iPhone model, iOS version and memory or disk state at the time. They never contain your photos or screenshots, screenshots of the app, your library, your IP address or anything that identifies you. Sentry's policy: sentry.io/privacy. If you share analytics with app developers in your iPhone's settings, Apple may also send us anonymous crash reports.

Children

Longsnap does not ask for personal information.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
