Ratings and Reviews
Open source, reasonable pricing, and gives control back to the users
This is a great alternative to Big Tech which is slowly consolidating control over all digital services.
I was a long time user of Google Photos and was pulled in originally by their false promise of free, unlimited storage. Now Google Photos caps it at 15GB and constantly reminds you to upgrade and pay them while also adding more and more advertising for other services. Google Photos and iCloud also make it much harder than it needs to be to export your data or back it up to other locations such as an external hard drive.
This app on the other hand is transparent with their pricing from the start and make it easy to export your data for back up elsewhere. I also like the grass roots nature of this app. Too many apps and companies use VC funding to offer too good to be true services only to later do a rug pull once they corner the market and then start to raise prices, lower the quality, and treat their employees poorly.
If you want a photo app that offers a great service and you can feel good about as well, get Ente!
$2 a month for 50 GB of storage?!
Yeah this app is fantastic, and i haven’t had a problem with it saving images in a lower quality like google photos does. also unlike google photos, you don’t have to back up your entire device on it every time you open the app just to save a couple photos to it. i wish it was a little more clear on what photos are actually “uncategorized” but other than that this thing is amazing. there’s even a way to delete duplicate images!
has great promise
as good as google photos is, Google has shown it can't be trusted with user information. ente is young but has the promise to become a good replacement. i hope they continue to follow their principles of data portability and preventing vendor lock-in. i also hope to see some more robust permissions and sharing features for various social situations. the price is steep compared to the alternatives but if it results in a sustainable business that does not require venture capital, then the high price is justified.
