Share one album link and let friends, family, or clients view and upload without a Google account or Yogile account.
A simpler, more private alternative to Google Photos
Yogile gives you a straightforward place to store and share photos without analyzing or organizing your uploads with AI. Create shared albums that guests can view and contribute to without creating an account, then use the same albums on the web, iPhone, or Android.
Why people choose Yogile instead of Google Photos
Google Photos is designed around automatic backup, AI-powered organization, and the wider Google ecosystem. Yogile is for people who want a narrower service: private albums, simple sharing, predictable storage, and fewer account requirements for everyone else.
No AI scanning
Yogile does not scan photos or videos with AI, generate AI-based categories, or build an AI search index from your uploads.
Account-free guest access
People you invite can open an album, view photos, and upload their own files without creating an account first.
One simple yearly plan
The paid plan includes unlimited photo storage and generous video storage for $44.99 a year.
Shared albums that work for the whole group
A shared album should not depend on every person using the same account provider. Yogile albums open in a browser and can also be managed through the iOS and Android apps, so mixed-device groups can use one place together.
Collect photos from other people
Use one link for family events, trips, teams, client work, or community groups. Guests can contribute directly instead of sending separate download links and message attachments.
Keep the album easy to revisit
The album owner manages the collection while invited viewers get a direct path to the photos. There is no need to teach guests another photo-library interface.
