Share photos in three steps

01

Create a circle

Give it a name: Family, Friends, Ana's wedding, Lisbon trip… It takes ten seconds.

02

Invite with a link

Send it on WhatsApp or show the QR code. Whoever opens it is in.

03

Drop your photos

Dozens at once, from your phone or your PC. Everyone gets a notification and sees them instantly.

Private or public: you always know who sees your photos

Every circle, every photo and every post button carries the same label. Green with a lock is private. Orange with a globe is public. Nothing becomes public unless you confirm it.

🔒

Private circle

Members only
  • Only the people you invite see the photos
  • Never shown on your profile, in Explore or on Google
  • A photo's link doesn't work for anyone who isn't a member
  • The default when you create a circle
🌍

Public circle

Anyone can see it
  • For hobbies and topics: sunsets, cars, your city…
  • Anyone can see the photos and join with one tap
  • Always marked in orange, including when you post
  • We ask you to confirm before anything goes public

A circle for every group in your life

Ways to share photos as a group →

Easier than a cloud drive. Tidier than a group chat.

Cloud drives like Google Drive or Dropbox are built for files and folders. Group chats are built for talking. fotos.red is built for one thing only: sharing photos with groups of people.

No folders, no permissions

No folders to create, no “viewer” or “editor” to pick, no access requests. A circle is the group and the album in one.

Photos don't get lost

Every photo stays in the circle's album, in high resolution and sorted by date. Download one, or all of them as a ZIP.

You know who has seen them

“Seen by” on every post, likes, comments and a phone notification when someone adds new photos.

Frequently asked questions

What is fotos.red?

fotos.red is a free website for sharing photos with groups of people. You create a “circle” (for example Family, Friends or Lisbon trip), invite people with a link or a QR code, and everyone can add and view photos in one shared album, with comments, likes and “seen by”.

What is the easiest way to share photos with a group of friends or family?

Create a private circle on fotos.red, send the invite link on WhatsApp and drop your photos in. There is no app to install, no folders to create and no permissions to manage: whoever opens the link joins the circle and sees the photos in high quality on their phone or PC.

Who can see my photos?

You decide for every photo. “Only me” keeps them in My photos. In a private circle only its members see them. In a public circle or on your public profile anyone can see them. Private is always marked green with a lock and public orange with a globe, and we ask you to confirm before anything becomes public.

Is it an alternative to Google Drive, Dropbox or Google Photos for sharing photos?

Yes, for sharing photos with groups. Cloud drives store every kind of document in folders with permissions. fotos.red does one thing: photos shared with groups of people, with a feed, an album, notifications and “seen by”. If what you need is a backup of all your files, a cloud drive is a better fit.

Do photos lose quality?

Very little. Photos are kept in high resolution (up to 2560 px on the long edge), sharp on any screen and without the heavy compression of chat apps. You can download them one by one or all together as a ZIP.

Is it free? Do I need to install an app?

It is free, with 2 GB of space per person, and it works in the browser on phones and computers. There is nothing to install, though you can add it to your home screen like an app.

Do the people I invite need an account?

To join a private circle, yes: a free account that takes half a minute, so that only invited people see the photos. Public circles can be viewed without an account. You can also send a private link to specific photos, which opens without an account.

fotos.red is a simple way to share photos with a group: with family, with friends, with wedding guests or with the people you travelled with. Instead of sending compressed photos through a chat or setting up shared folders in a cloud drive, you create a circle, invite with a link and everyone has the same album.

Private circles are for the people you choose. Public circles are for hobbies and open topics. And if you also want to show your work, you can publish photos on your profile, enter the weekly challenge and explore other members' public photos.
