Pica: Save Links & Screenshots · dk.elhoj.pica · Updated 19 October 2026
Everything stays on your iPhone.
Pica has no account and no server of its own. Links, images, notes, tags and collections are stored in the app on your phone and, if you turn on iCloud, in your own iCloud account. There are no analytics, no advertising identifiers and no tracking.
One exception. On iPhones that cannot run Apple Intelligence, tagging falls back to Google's Gemini: the text of a saved item (its title, URL path, page excerpt, screenshot text and your note) is sent to Google so it can suggest tags, and for nothing else. Phones that run Apple Intelligence never send anything.
Shared collections.
If you share a collection, its items are copied to your iCloud private database and shared with the people you invite through Apple's CloudKit sharing. Apple's iCloud terms apply. Pica never sees the data.
Purchases.
Pica Pro is sold through the App Store. Purchase status is handled by Apple and RevenueCat, which receives an anonymous app-user identifier and the receipt, nothing about what you save.
