### 5/5 — The best for sharing photos

*2025-04-07*

So seamless and super well organized! The automatic face detection feature makes finding pictures of myself and friends super convenient, and I love how easy and accessible it is both on phone and web.

I was introduced to this app by B & H Creators. This app holds all of my favorite moments of the B & H Creators albums in one place. Evan even create my own albums of things I enjoy doing. The best thing about this app is you will not lose any of your favorite moments on the app.

### 5/5 — The best shared photo album app!!

*2025-08-17*

I had been looking for a long time for a good alternative to share photos with friends, but most popular apps were too difficult to use and not user-friendly.

When I found SWSH, it was such an easy app to use! It has cool features like video recaps, chat, reactions to photos, locked albums, approval requirements for photos and comments. It’s literally super friendly and designed in a super cute way.

I also had some difficulty accessing the app from another country, but I submitted a help form at 3 a.m., and by 10 a.m. the same day, the problem was already resolved.

It’s honestly the best app for so many occasions. I’m now using it with my sorority, friends, and family. I love SWSH!! <3

### 5/5 — Love this appp

### 5/5 — Amazing app for photo sharing

*2025-04-07*

I use swsh with my sorority and friends and it just makes life easier. Sharing photos has never been more seamless, being able to easily find photos of myself or my friends. Honestly so fun to customize the groups and albums and it having it work on the web and app. I highly recommend for everyone, not just greek life.

### 5/5 — swsh is in, photocircle is out

*2025-04-07*

Recently started using swsh for a couple events I host and it’s miles ahead of photocircle, the platform i used previously. 

Takes literally 2 seconds to find all your photos and it’s organized well. Let’s me find pics to promote my events with ease on social media.

I also like how users can attach their social media handle, allowing people to connect after the event rather than fumbling with the search bar mid conversation. 

Overall great app from a company perspective and my attendees love it too.

### 5/5 — Best Photo Album App

*2025-04-07*

Been using swsh for almost 4 months, best app my fraternity has used by a long shot. Easy to use and share with others, and love the automatic tagging feature. Makes connecting and posting 10 times easier! Definitely worth the switch from google drive! Love the app!

### 5/5 — best photo app hands down

*2025-04-07, version 1.0.75*

i’ve been looking for an easy way to share and receive photos after parties and get-togethers, and this is the perfect one. it’s so easy to download photos and i can even find photos of myself automatically. best app i’ve downloaded, makes everything stress free
