Photos that come back to you.
Some photos exist only so you can find them again later: the warranty receipt, the meter reading, the label of a wine you liked. Others you simply want to see again one day – your child on the first day of school, the garden a year ago. Fotowecker keeps both for you and speaks up exactly when the day comes.
In three steps
Pick photos, or share them to Fotowecker from another app. Set a day and a time – tomorrow, in a year or in ten. That's it. On that day the notification arrives, with a preview.
What the app does
Widget with countdown
The next reminder on your home screen, and on the lock screen as a line or a circle. On the lock screen deliberately without a photo.
Siri and Shortcuts
“Next reminders in Fotowecker” asks for the current state. Reminders can also be created with a photo from a shortcut.
Yearly repetition
For anniversaries and birthdays: the reminder stays on its day and comes back every year.
Every photo in the notification
Expand the notification and every photo of that day appears as a gallery – without opening the app.
Surprise
The preview stays blurred until the day, and the notification gives nothing away – not even to someone glancing at the lock screen.
Camera at full resolution
Shoot straight inside the app, without the detour through your library. Those photos stay in Fotowecker.
Your photos stay yours
Fotowecker has no server of its own, no user account and no sign-up. There is no advertising, no tracking and no analytics. Your photos and reminders live on your device and – if you use iCloud – in your private iCloud database, which only you can access.
The app deliberately asks for no read access to your photo library: it only ever sees the images you pick yourself.
What it costs
Three open reminders are free forever. If you need more, Fotowecker Pro unlocks them with a single purchase – no subscription, no follow-up costs. iCloud backup is always included, purchase or not.
Please note
Fotowecker stores its own copy of your photos and is not a substitute for a backup. Please keep the originals in your library. What that means in detail is set out in the important notice.
Requirements
iPhone or iPad running iOS or iPadOS 26 or later. German and English. Syncing between devices needs iCloud; without iCloud everything stays on the device and the app works just the same.
