A private family cloud for photos — built for the whole clan

Invite-only storage that belongs to the family, not a single phone login.

Personal cloud vs family cloud

iCloud and Google Photos are excellent for one person's devices. A private family cloud is different: everyone you invite shares one archive on purpose — grandparents, cousins abroad, siblings with their own kids — without forwarding endless album links or depending on Mum's Apple ID forever.

What you get

One vault. Separate logins. Photos old and new in the same place. Names and people attached so the cloud is searchable as a family archive, not a dump of unsorted files.

Privacy that matches the word private

Nothing here is for advertisers or public timelines. You choose who joins and what they can do. Search engines do not index your vault. When someone leaves a job or loses a phone, the family's photos stay in the cloud you control.

Questions about a private family photo cloud

How is a private family cloud different from Google Photos or iCloud?

Personal clouds centre on one login. A private family cloud is invite-only for the whole clan — shared on purpose, not by accident through one person's account.

Who owns the photos in our family cloud?

Your family. You choose who joins and what they can upload. We do not sell your memories to advertisers.

Can grandparents and cousins join the same cloud?

Yes. Each person you invite gets their own login to the same private vault, so albums from different households live together.

What happens if someone loses their phone?

The photos stay in the vault. They sign in again from another device — the archive is not trapped on one handset.
