Vacations
Vacation photos from the whole group — no app needed
Ten people, ten phones, ten albums you'll never see. The best shots end up in a story for 24 hours. One link before you leave changes that — and photos sort themselves by day, just like a trip diary.
What you get
Not an upload box. The whole event in one gallery.
A gallery sorted by day
Photos sort themselves by the day they were taken — Day 1, Day 2, Day 3 — not by who uploaded first. Just like a trip diary.
A map of the trip
Photos with location show up on a route map. At the end of the trip you see the whole journey at a glance, not a folder of files.
One link, no app
Send it to the group chat before you leave. Nobody signs up — works for grandma and the friend with no storage left on their phone.
Uploads even without signal
Mountains and boats rarely have wifi. The photo waits in a queue on the phone and sends itself the moment you connect — nothing gets forgotten.
Video too, and iPhone-friendly
Diving clips, cycling, the evening campfire — and HEIC from iPhone with no conversion, no "unsupported format".
Photo of the day, and a recap at the end
The group votes with a heart for the best photo each day. After the trip, the gallery puts together a short highlight reel on its own.
From experience
How to get the most out of it
- Send the link to the group chat the day before you leave — not once you're already there and signal is weak.
- Set a password on the gallery — vacation photos aren't for the whole internet.
- Extend uploads to the length of the trip plus a week after you're back — that's when photos arrive from whoever sorts them at home.
- Traveling in several cars? Send the link to each one — no need to wait until the whole group is together.
