Question 4

Is my data safe? Do you collect my photos?

Absolutely safe! We take privacy seriously. Gallery Roulette NEVER collects, stores, uploads, or shares any of your photos or personal data. All photo selection happens entirely on your device. We can't see your photos even if we wanted to - they never leave your iPhone.

Gallery Roulette requires iOS 18 or later. If you're running an older version of iOS, you'll need to update your device to use the app.

No - that's the fun of it! Gallery Roulette randomly selects from your entire photo library. The randomness is what makes it exciting and helps you rediscover photos you might have forgotten about. It's pure spontaneity!

Question 7

What if I have no photos on my device?
