I'm going on holiday soon and will be taking a DSLR with me.
In the past I took an iPad mini to back up my photos using the SD card reader. I left it disconnected from wifi and when I got home without having lost any photos I would delete them from the iPad.

Today I ordered an 8+ with 256GB and would like to use this to back up but I don't really need them all to upload to iCloud and I can't keep the device off wifi for 5 weeks.

Is there any apps which will just allow local storage without adding everything to my photo stream.

I would like to keep photo stream etc enabled as a backup for anything taken with the phone itself.
