Hidden Cam - Price £1.19 ($1.99)
Hidden Cam lets you take pictures without anyone else knowing.
The viewfinder is hidden on a screen that looks like a regular dialpad. Just tap the "Call" button to snap a photo to the camera roll. Unless someone is looking *very* closely, nobody will know you just took a picture!
(Make sure you set your iPhone to vibrate to disable the shutter noise!)
Works with iPhone OS 2.1 and 2.2
When I first saw this app, I thought it would be ideal for getting those snaps without your subject knowing, however the only user review for this app in the App Store suggests this app is very poor, scoring it only 1 star. The reviewer indicates that the home screen is poor, and that it takes 8-10 seconds to take a photo. If this is the case, then this is not good, but if you know different, then let us know by posting your comments, good or bad.
