Good until I couldn’t use it anymore

When my little one was born, I stumbled upon this app and really enjoyed its functionalities. We have a large family that is in love with receiving these photos and updates. However, recently, after months of using this, there is now a restriction of uploading any videos unless you have the Pro subscription… I wish I knew this before committing months of memories of photos and videos to one place as the subscription price is rather steep for just needing video. Outside of that, it was good while it lasted but will need to find another app unfortunately.

Best Family Photo Sharing App

I’ve had such a wonderful experience with TinyNest. The app has made it so easy to share photos and videos of my baby with family and close friends in a private, organized space. Instead of sending pictures individually, everyone can stay updated and enjoy watching my little one grow, and I love knowing our memories are all in one place. This was especially helpful with sharing the news of our newborn son and his daily silly faces he makes. It’s such a gift to share his special moments on a secure app to everyone with a click of a button!

App only lets you select full access to photo album. I have a separate album on my phone for these photos but app doesn’t like selected photos only. Very sus.

Hi there! Sorry that you went through the trouble. Photo permission is required so the app will work. For selecting photos from an album, we are fixing that. Could you contact us so we know how we can help out? support@tinynestai.com

No point

You can’t access the app at all without purchasing the subscription. Makes you make an account to not even be able to see if the app is worth the money without automatically going into a subscription (yes it have 7 days free) but we all know how that works. You forget to cancel and get charged. Not worth the time if you can’t even see if it’s what you want to begin with

hi Brittani, we designed the whole experience so that you can try out and see if it’s a good fit for you. “You can’t access the app at all without purchasing the subscription” goes directly against what you mentioned “yes it has 7 days free”. Plus, even if you decide to cancel you can still use the free features, but for premium features like unlimited uploads, memory generation, you do have to be a subscriber. Otherwise it’s impossible for us to pay for our developers and our server costs

Not free

I read through all description and at no point does it say you need a subscription to use the app. Got all the way through setup before the Free trial popped up and that’s when I learned that I have to pay to use it. Won’t recommend to others.

Hi Annabel, Thanks for the review. Unfortunately we have to pay for the servers and as a team of dads and moms, we also have family to feed. You can also try out the app and if it’s not a good fit, you can still use it for free. The AppStore page also has enough information for in-app subscription. We do understand it can be stressful financially when times are tough, especially with a newborn. So if you’d like, please email us contact@tinynestai.com and we will see how we can help out

Solid app

I love the app, we got tiny nest to protect our little ones from being seen by the outside world, we don’t want our babies shared or posted online and we really liked that there is a no screen shot feature, we do not like that you have to wait for a member to accept your invite before you have to manually go through each members profile and set the no screen shot function and their ability to share or post your babies photos. By the time you realize that your 20 family Members have accepted the invite, everyone has already screen shotted and sent your babies photos all over the place. You should be able to turn that setting off before you send the invite. We have a new baby and it’s a lot of work, it can be hard to manage a baby and each member of your families profile at the same time. We got this app for protection, for our little ones. I feel like that one little feature is more complicated than it needs to be, it’s nice that you can see who screen shotted your photos and can revoke their ability to screen shot further but you should not have to watch your notifications and hop on your app as soon as they log on to remove their ability to screen shot and or share/send your photos. For as expensive as this app is, they should make a few changes. Everyone who is not an admin should automatically not have the ability to share, screen record or screen shot photos from your collection. It can get out of hand fast. But overall it’s a really cool app. I love that the fam can like and comment on your photos. They can also upload photos they have taken. It’s a really cool app for the most part!

Thanks for the detailed review! As the CEO of TinyNest, I read every single comment and this is one of the greatest out there! Very thoughtful suggestions and I've already asked the team to start taking your suggestions in our roadmap!! I'm really glad TinyNest is helping you save memories as the baby grows and get she/him protected! Please let me know if you have any other suggestions and I'm always all ears (tap the contact support in the app will send an email straight to me) Thank you!

Good app

I like this app more than the others I’ve tried so far. Some changes I really wish they had: I don’t like that you have to toggle on the “HD” button every time you want to see a photo not blurry/in high quality, I wish there was a setting to just keep it enabled. Secondly I wish you could filter your photos when you go to upload new ones, like by favorites or specific albums, instead of just recents. Going to add some family so we’ll see what they think!

Hi Kittycat, My name is Eddie and I'm the CEO of TinyNest - Family Album... Thank you for the suggestions! I really appreciate them! For HD-feature you mentioned - yes we have already put the persisting-HD toggle on our roadmap and it will be out in August update. For the filtering - do you mean selecting specific albums on your phone, when uploading? Please email me at eddie@tinynestai.com and I'll make sure we add what you're asking for

Sucked into yearly

Started a trial and ended up not liking the product. Was not notified about the subscription start and asked for a refund. Have heard nothing back from Apple or the developer when asking for a refund.

Not Free

Once you get signed up, it’s not free like they market it to be. There’s a limit to how many photos you can post before having to pay. The FamilyAlbum app is way better since it’s free.

Response from developer

Hi Abbyster, Unfortunately TinyNest is a small company and with a team of a few engineers (all dads & moms!) we have mouths to feed. We also offer a much better app experience, richer features and much better support than FamilyAlbum so it all add up. Remember, you're comparing a multi-billion dollar company with a much smaller team yet they offer a lesser app. That being said we do allow you to use it for free though.

It’s great!

The only thing I wish it did was clear all of the notifications at once instead of opening every single one to clear that notification.

Thanks so much for the review! We appreciate it and will keep shipping features for our lovely users like yourself! Regarding the clear notification, could you try the “mark all read” button in the activity page? It should be able to clear all notifications. Please kindly email our CEO directly if it doesn’t work as expected and we will prioritize a fix eddie@tinynestai.com

Friendly user app/connivence

This app is worth the subscription for big and busy families. Instead of having to send photos to 20 different family members, we can add the photos to the app and allow family members to control which photos they want to download. It also keeps up with milestones and lists all photos/events by date. It’s very organized. It has made our parenthood a lot easier as fresh parents. Our bundle of joy is the first and only baby on both sides of the family; therefore, everyone wants an update consistently. We have greatly enjoyed this app. Thank you!

Thank you so much for the review. We are delighted that you and your family are enjoying the app. Seeing our users enjoying the precious moments with their family brings us so much joy and let us feel recognized. We appreciate that! Thank you so much for your support!

LOVE THIS APP

We use TinyNest daily to share new updates with grandparents who live in other countries. It’s easy to use, and we paid only one time for the whole family. It lets us easily manage permissions and everything just works. Lastly the developer is super responsive when we have questions and issues. We felt heard.

Best family album app out there!

TinyNest is such a great app. It serves as our family album app now. Granted it’s not free and you have to pay for the unlimited storage feature. However, i think it’s 100% fair that the payment is for the whole family, and it’s much cheaper than alternatives like iCloud, TinyBeans and FamilyAlbum etc. we tried them all and TinyNest is hands down the best with the best security features. For example, you can control each family member if they can upload, screenshot photos etc. love the app!

Don’t waste your time

They market this like there is a free option with unlimited uploads, but once you get to 200 uploads they will paywall you and no longer allow you to upload more than three photos at a time or any videos without upgrading to a subscription. I’m a busy mom and super mad about how much time I wasted transferring photos from family album jist to find this out. Was going to switch for the no screenshot feature but it’s not worth it if I can’t even upload videos.

Thanks for the review. Please understand storage and engineering are not free. Like you, we have a family to raise and food to put on the table. We try our best to provide as much free trial period for parents as possible, but we never market it as free for unlimited uploads.

Lovely app

Our families have loved this app & we love that it keeps our baby somewhat private. When I reached out with a question, the co-founder messaged me back within an hour & within a week, they pushed out an update! I can tell how much they care ♥️

Laggy app and forces you to pay

The premise of the app is great but I am finding it quite laggy (I couldn’t see my feed without adding family members, however I’m still pregnant) and I don’t like that I can’t X out of the suggestion to use the paying version. I had to delete the app and redownload it.

However I do like the cybersecurity aspect of the app. If the app is still too laggy, I recommend to move to familyalbum.

hi BlueFlower92, thanks for the review. I’m the CEO of TinyNest and I’m wondering could you please email the support@tinynestai.com for the laggy experience that you had? I will definitely look into it and make sure your experience gets better. Regarding the paid version, you can try the app without paying and if it doesn’t fit your need or if you think the app is not worth it, you’re free to use the free version. However, the app has no ads and we have an engineering team to feed. As you mentioned the cybersecurity aspect is delightful, and that’s because the team put a lot of effort into it and we want to make sure you feel safe when posting your baby’s photos. That being said we think it’s fair to charge for the premium features (unlimited upload, unlimited backup, full quality upload etc) without any ads interrupting you or your family while they are enjoying the cute smiles of the baby. I’d love to see if you could change your mind and give us another chance. Please feel free to email the support email, and I’ll make sure issues get resolved for you and your family

Great product

It’s such a convenient family album app! We use it to share baby photos with grandparents who live in UK. The app is super easy to set up and you can configure all the privacy settings like screenshot control etc. highly recommend for new parents!

Irritating and useless notifications

Downloaded the app bc of my brother and SIL. The sheer number of nonsense notifications I get is ridiculous. Someone liked someone else's picture! Look back on the baby! Look at the memories! The baby isn't even born yet and no one has posted pictures for 2 weeks, why am I still getting daily notifications???? All I want to know is when there are new pics :(
