A private photo gallery for the household
A private shared photo gallery for the household. Upload photos, create named albums, and browse memories together. Adults can manage albums and delete; everyone can upload and browse.
What Family Photos does
A shared gallery that belongs to the household and nobody else: no public profile, no algorithm, no strangers. Everyone can upload and browse; adults manage the albums.
Photos sit in your household's own storage, alongside everything else in the hub.
How it works
- Upload by button or drag and drop, from any household member.
- Named albums: birthdays, trips, milestones.
- Full-screen lightbox with keyboard and swipe navigation.
- An All Photos view across albums.
- Adults create albums and delete; everyone uploads and browses.
Who it's for
Families who want to share photos with each other and not with a platform.
