How to share a family photo album privately (without social networks)

After a birthday, a birth or a family holiday, the same question comes up: how do you share photos with loved ones without compressing them in a chat app or exposing them on social media?

Why avoid chat apps and social media for family photos

Messaging apps often reduce image quality to speed up sending, and photos end up buried in conversation threads. Social networks rely on advertising profiles and servers located outside Europe.

A private family album, hosted in France

With Mon Écrin, a French sovereign cloud, your albums are private by default and hosted in France with OVHcloud (Paris region), under French law and the GDPR. You choose exactly which family members or friends can view an album, and you can revoke access at any time.

Everyone enjoys original-quality photos

Whether your relatives open the album from the Android app or from their web browser on a phone, tablet or computer, they view photos and videos in their original quality. In a family space, authorised members can also add their own shots.

In short

Sharing family memories can stay simple, warm and strictly private. Explore our Individual and Family plans (with a 30-day free trial) to bring your memories together.
