FamilyAlbum - Photo Sharing 4+

This app has been such a blessing. Due to its private nature, I have been allowed to maintain my privacy while still being able to share photos of my kid with my family, many of whom have smart phones but don’t use social media. I enjoy the convenience of being able to upload to one place without having to individually text photos to my family. The app and desktop version has allowed for members of my family who aren’t so tech savvy to be apart of experiencing the memories we share as well.
I haven’t used the features of being able to buy the books for the month memories yet but I appreciate the option.
A big thing I enjoy as well is that the photos are grouped by month so it’s not just one large stream of photos and videos.
I would give it 4.8 stars until the app allows uploads to continue even when the app is momentarily closed. I’ve been uploading and leave the app to respond to a text and it’ll pause the upload until I return which annoys me. I also wish that the comment feature had a way to tag the person you are responding to so they become aware of a response directed to them, but that’s hardly been an issue.
Highly recommend for the people looking to maintain privacy and control the environment in which they share their memories without having to resort to sharing over social media or being burdened with potential forgetting to include someone in a group text of pictures.

My wife and I have been using this app since our daughter was born. We love that when we upload a photo, they no longer shows up as an available photo from our camera roll. This simple and intuitive feature makes it extremely hard to upload duplicates (which is fantastic). Another great feature is that all of our close family can see a photos we upload to that child’s album. We are no longer unintentionally spamming our family with cutie little baby photos of our child. They can view it are there our discretion. This app also allows the admin to grant access for family or friends to comment on photos. The admin rights gives the ability to restrict view to some of the more personal photos. We do occasionally use the free 8 printed photos a month for being a premium member. One feature we love is the monthly photo books. We purchase them and just store it away. They are great when friends and extended family visit. Someday in the future, these photos books will surely be a treasure item to flip through. I highly recommend the premium version of this app. I simply can not recommend it high enough and it’s truly a service to behold. If I could give it more then 5 stars I would. Overall a very user friendly app. The app is well coded and has extremely quick response times when navigating through the it.

I don’t often write reviews for apps. It’s just not something I’ve taken to doing. But this app absolutely out-classes every single thing I’ve ever seen or tried to use. It’s intuitive, it’s functional, it’s amazing across devices, the whole nine yards. I LOVE taking pictures. We’re a two-family system with the boys’ Dad and I being married while their Mother is married to someone else. This lets us share pictures with everyone without having the added pressure of Facebook or some other site. I’ve used the free version of this since 2018, but now that the boys are older and I’m even more nostalgic I’ve gotten the paid portion and it’s AMAZING.

We love watching the 1-second movies. Uploading is super easy. Sharing is easy. I love that it separates by month and year and tells you how old they were. I love that it lets you comment on them. And I love that after you upload a picture it doesn’t show that same picture as an uploadable option anymore.

Long story short — you’ve made an AMAZING app. I love it. And I hope it’s around for a LONG time to come.
