Android

The Android app includes the full Library - browse, upload, search, People, Share, and more - plus View. TV apps (Fire TV, Google TV) are view-only and do not include the Library.

Before you install​

Register on the website first. Account creation and subscription happen on the web app, not in the Android app.

Install​

  1. Join the Play test group (link from your tester invite).
  2. Install Eyedeea Photos from Google Play.
  3. Sign in with the same Google account used on the web.

Upload photos​

The Library Upload tab is hidden in the Android app. Add photos in either of these ways:

  1. Tap the hamburger menu (☰), choose Upload, and pick photos from your device.
  2. Open your phone's native photo gallery, select photos, and Share to Eyedeea Photos.

Prefer photos taken with the phone camera - they usually include GPS for location albums. Photos from messaging apps may have location stripped.

See Upload for limits, Auto Curation, and EXIF tips.

Offline sync​

Android app only

Offline sync is available only in the Android app. The web browser and view-only TV apps (Fire TV, Google TV) do not sync albums to your device gallery.

The Android app can sync selected albums to your native gallery so photos stay available when you have no network connection.

How to sync​

  1. Open an album in the Android app.
  2. Choose Sync to device from the album context menu.
  3. Wait for sync to complete - progress runs in the background.
  4. Open your phone's Gallery app to view synced photos.

You can sync an individual album or an entire album group. See Download an album for details.

Limits​

Offline storage uses device space. Large albums may take time on slow connections.

Account requirement​

You must be signed in on Android with the same account used on the web. Offline packs are scoped to your household.

Settings​

Open the user menu and choose Settings to edit your profile, household members, slideshow timer, and notifications.

The Subscription tab is not shown in the Android app. Manage billing, payment method, and account deletion on the website.

See Settings for details.
