Shared photo albums · iPhone & iPad

Nights end.
Lore doesn’t.

Every party. Every you-had-to-be-there.

One album for one night. Everyone who’s actually there opens Picful, sees the party, and taps to join — then all their photos and videos land in the same place.

The Picful album for a party called Good Company, hosted by Yuri at Yuri’s place in Williamsburg.

How it works

Open the app. The party’s already there.

  1. Someone starts the party

    Name it, drop a pin, set when it starts and ends. That’s the album — pinned to this night and this place.

  2. Everyone else just opens Picful

    The party is sitting right there under Nearby, with everyone who’s already in orbiting around it. No group chat, no link to hunt for, no code to scan. Tap once to ask in — the host waves you through, or walk straight in if it’s open.

  3. The photos land all night

    Photos and videos up to a minute, added during the party, in the taxi home, or over coffee the next day. Uploads finish in the background.

The album

Every angle of the same night

Nobody gets the whole evening on their own camera roll. Filter the album by the friend who was holding the camera, swipe through full screen, zoom in, and save the ones you want to keep.

The album grid filling with photos, with a request to join at the top. A full-screen photo of friends watching a sunset, credited to the friend who took it. A full-screen photo from the dinner table, with a thumbnail strip underneath.

Why not a shared album

The guest list changes. The album shouldn’t.

No album sprawl

Five of you last weekend, seven of you this one. Each gathering gets its own album under its own date and place — instead of one shared album everyone keeps getting added to.

Nobody stands around AirDropping

No circle of people passing files to each other before anyone can go home. Everyone adds in their own time and the uploads catch up on their own.

Only the people who were there

The host approves who gets in, and once the party is over nobody new can join it. Whoever was in the room keeps the album; whoever wasn’t never sees it.

Tonight becomes the group chat’s favourite album

Set up a party in under a minute. Everyone there finds it on their own.
