Shutterwake
The fastest camera, straight from the Lock Screen
An iOS 26-only camera app that captures straight from the Lock Screen — no unlock required. One tap from a Control Center control or Lock Screen widget opens the camera, and the Action button or volume buttons fire the shutter.

Auto-Save to Photos
Photos taken on the Lock Screen are securely imported into your Photos library as soon as you unlock. Nothing gets left behind.
