1. 5/5Perfect for Long Distance

   This is perfect for those long distance relationships. My husband is away for a year for certain circumstances and this app is perfect for sharing pictures of our daily routine and life away from each other. We don’t have social media except for Facebook, but we were looking for something photo oriented. We tried Google photos and to our luck we shared 3 photos and then it said we reached our limit. So I started looking for an app that was free to hopefully help us through this tough time being away for so long, and I came across this app. It’s literally perfect. You can take Live Photos and videos, you can put a caption in the images/videos you capture and share, you can comment and even react with an emoji to the other persons photos. You can even make more albums if you want to share photos with friends and family, or possibly just to make different albums for different occasions. I do not know if it costs anything for more than one album, I’d like to say no? But I have only used it for one album. There is no limit on the photos/videos which is prefect and what we were looking for as I like to share every detail lol! It also doesn’t automatically save it to your photos, which is a bonus since it doesn’t take up your photo storage. And if you even want, you can save the photos to your camera roll. Even my husband likes it and he doesn’t like taking pictures often. It’s definitely keeps us included in each other’s lives as we are so far from each other. And a bonus feature is anytime someone uploads a photo or reacts to it, it notifies you, so you never miss something being uploaded. If you’re looking for something to get you through long distance that isn’t social media and is private, this is the app. Now I wouldn’t put anything explicit as I’m sure the creators can see the content, but in the way we use it as sharing our lives together it’s perfect!

2. 4/5🩷 AMAZING 🤩

   I love this app is perfect for sharing with people that you trust. My church has one when ever we go on a mission trip so that way we can all share photos and pictures with everybody and everybody can see them. We also do one for a family get together in Reno getting together for a little bit it a great way then you’ll have to send them to everybody and you can save them right to your phone or just browse and I love how you can kick people off of it who were invited without consent from the moderator that’s really nice. I have had to use that a couple times especially with my youth group because I invite people who aren’t from our church, which is really annoying, but I could just kick them off and then I’ll need to know who did it also if you can have like a little picture of yourself and you can customize your name and that you can comment on the photos or just leave an emoji and that says a lot is great for him. I’d say teenagers not really younger kids cause you know you have to be like trusted and like not post pictures or put pictures on there without their consent cause yeah you can always take photos down if you need to, but it is better. I say for older teenagers so you know like the little kids don’t get into it but yeah, I’m really nice. I think I would say there’s way too many ads like cut back on the ad that it would be fine. That’s my honest review. Hope it helps. Bye-bye babies.

3. 5/5Amazing App!!! Highly recommend for all events!

   I started using this app about a year ago when I traveled overseas with friends. We all uploaded our photos during our trip. It is fun to go back and look at our memories in one private album only we see. Since then, I have become a huge fan and use the app to privately share photos with me family living far away. We also used the app for our engagement party recently and will set up a PhotoCircle album for all our guests at our wedding. That way, everyone will get to upload the photos they take during our wedding and we will be able to see them instantly and capture photos all our guests took for a lifetime of memories. Love, love, love PhotoCircle! Update: We now share photos of our son with family and friends. We literally have his whole life documented in one album. PhotoCircle allows us to maintain privacy and control who sees our son’s photos. I love the new version of the app. Very modern and much faster. One minute long videos are amazing!

4. 5/5I absolutely love PhotoCircle!

   I absolutely love PhotoCircle! I’ve been using it since January, and it has quickly become one of my favorite apps. As a travel advisor, I’m constantly taking photos on trips, at events, and during family gatherings, and PhotoCircle has made organizing and sharing those memories incredibly easy. One feature I especially love is the ability to create separate circles for different events, trips, or occasions and invite only the people who need access. Everyone can upload their photos in one place, and you can save or download the ones you want without endless texting or searching through messages. Recently, I completed a 14-day Mediterranean cruise with stops in multiple countries and ports. Instead of having hundreds of photos mixed together, I was able to organize everything into dedicated circles, making it easy to keep track of which photos belonged to which part of the trip and share them with the people who traveled with me. I’ve used PhotoCircle for both large events and small family moments, and it works beautifully for both. It’s simple, organized, and incredibly convenient. The fact that it’s free is amazing. I honestly can’t say enough good things about it. If you want an easy way to collect, organize, and share photos with friends, family, travel groups, or event attendees, I highly recommend PhotoCircle. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to use. Organized. Great for travel. Great for families. And best of all, it's free. 😊

5. 5/5Perfect way to share.

   I've had Facebook and Instagram. Originally used those apps to share pictures with friends and family. But, before long I was "friends" with lots of people I really didn't want to share my pictures with. Most of the time, I just wanted the original small group of people to see what I posted. This app solves all the problems! No one can "search" me out and send a friend request. The only people in a circle are the people I invite in. I have several circles. All with different groups and all with clear boundaries and no crossing over. One with friends, one with immediate family, and one with the whole family. You can have a "work friends" circle etc.... Best of all no hurt feelings when you don't "friend" someone. Easy peasy. Best social media app ever! Thanks. Never change it!
