## What is DailyAlbum?

DailyAlbum keeps one photo a day and hangs it in a frame. A spare iPhone or iPad, or your TV, becomes the frame that shows today's photo.

Use it for family moments, kids' growth, pets, trips, everyday life, plants, creative work, or any small change worth remembering. Open a date, choose one meaningful photo, and let your saved days fill in — no photo editing or social feeds getting in the way. Empty days can even fill themselves: DailyAlbum quietly suggests one good photo — favoring people and pets, skipping screenshots and document shots — all on your device.

◆ Display it
Frame Mode shows today's photo full screen with its date and note. Stand up an iPad or an old iPhone and it becomes a family photo frame. At the start of each month, replay last month as a monthly album.

◆ Never lose it
Turn on iCloud Sync (free, optional) and your photo choices and notes are stored in your personal iCloud, so they survive a new phone or a reinstall. Notes hold up to 300 characters, and you can search them to find that day again in seconds.

◆ Revisit and share
Add the widget to meet a saved moment on your home screen, and get a gentle note when a photo from this day in past years exists. Turn any day into a beautiful card — photo, date, and note — to share in messages or social apps.

◆ Share it with family (DailyAlbum Family)
With the DailyAlbum Family subscription, invited family can view your days in DailyAlbum — one photo per day, like a photo frame in their home. You choose exactly what to share: all daily photos, or only days with a tag you pick. It's view-only, always free for the family you invite, and you can see when they last looked. All Plus features are included while the subscription is active.

◆ Privacy
No account is required. By default DailyAlbum shows photos straight from your photo library and doesn't upload them. With iCloud Sync on, your choices and notes are stored in your personal iCloud. If you turn on photo sync (Plus) or share with family (Family), a copy of just those photos is kept in your own iCloud too — never on the developer's servers, and never readable by the developer.

DailyAlbum Plus (a one-time purchase) adds DailyAlbum Archive (a copy of each chosen photo saved inside the app, for steadier and faster viewing), unlimited Frame Mode, unlimited monthly album replays, and multi-device sync. The calendar, photo picking, notes, iCloud Sync, and note search stay free.

DailyAlbum Family is an auto-renewing subscription (monthly or yearly). Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, and the subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings. Viewing is always free for invited family.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 3.3.5 — 2026-09-12

Fixed cases where, when using DailyAlbum on more than one device, a photo or note you changed could revert, or a day you removed could come back.

Fixed a case where, after changing a day's photo on another device, the old photo could keep showing.

Fixed a case where deleting a tag you were sharing with family left already-shared photos on their side. While sharing, changes to the sharing scope now take effect with "Apply Sharing Scope".

Fixed a case where, depending on the connection, a purchase could be treated as not purchased.

Widget photos now keep their full color on tinted Home Screens.

Added "How do I turn an old iPhone or iPad into a photo frame?" to the FAQ, and rewrote the explanation of where photos are stored so it is accurate for each feature.

### 3.3.4 — 2026-09-10

Faster launch. The calendar appears sooner, and heavy work like re-checking auto-picked photos now runs after the screen is up.

You can see what's loading. Days whose photo hasn't arrived yet, plus the memories row and the on-this-day cards, now show a loading state.

Lighter day-to-day use. Saving a chosen photo and rebuilding the calendar are now batched.

### 3.3.3 — 2026-09-08

Fixed photo transitions in Frame Mode. In full-screen display, photos no longer appear to stretch when the orientation changes. Frame swaps now simply fade out and rise back in, without any zoom.

Also fixed the Memories widget sometimes not changing its photo.

### 3.3.1 — 2026-09-06

Frame Mode changes photos more quietly. The frame stays still while the photo inside slowly fades to the next one. When the orientation changes, the whole frame gently fades out and the next one rises into place. TV output and the family frame behave the same way.

### 3.3.0 — 2026-09-04

iPad now uses the whole screen: a large single column in portrait, two columns in landscape.

Frame Mode works with your TV. Connect with AirPlay or HDMI and the TV shows only the framed photo with its date and note, while your iPhone becomes the remote.

The frame itself is new: a wooden moulding with a mat, and the date and note now sit right under the frame. Gallery White is the default frame style for new setups (your saved choice stays). The FAQ on widget sizes has been rewritten.
