The Share tab is where you turn curated memories into something you can download, watch, or post - Story Packs, reels, and high-quality exports.

Story Packs let you mix photos from different Albums into one themed collection without moving the originals.

Story Packs

A Story Pack is a themed mini-album built from photos across any albums - a wedding weekend, a school year, or a vacation that spanned three cities.

  • ZIP download requires at least 6 photos in the pack.
  • Daily download limits depend on your plan.

Unlike many big platforms, exports keep your album organization - not a flat dump of unrelated files.


Reels

Generate a short video reel from a Story Pack with at least 5 photos. Processing runs in the background; the Reel button pulses when the video is ready, then changes to a blue Download button.

Reel creation is an experimental feature - quality and style may change over time.

Save as filter

Tap Filter on a Story Pack to save it as a Story Pack filter in Player Settings. Activate that filter and View plays only photos from the pack across every device in your household.

Owners with Global Filter permission can create filters visible to all members.

Good to know

  • Story Packs are private to your household until you export or sync them yourself.
  • Deleting a pack removes only the collection - never the original photos in Albums.
  • Combine Story Packs with View filters for living-room playback, then grab the same photos on your phone.

Picture this: a great photo appears on your TV slideshow (view-only app). You love it and want to post it. On your Android phone or laptop, open the full Library - same synchronized photos - and build a Story Pack or download the shot in seconds.
