GimmePhoto is the easiest way to collect everyone's photos from a trip, party, or event in one place. After a get-together, the best shots are scattered across everyone's phones — and rounding them up means a dozen "can you send me that pic?" texts. GimmePhoto fixes that. Start a shared Pile, invite the people who were there, and everyone adds their photos to the same place. HOW IT WORKS • Create a Pile for any trip, party, or moment • Invite family and friends — they add their photos too • "Gimme" the best shots so the group's favorites rise to the top • Save any photo to your photo library with its original date preserved, so it lands in the right spot in your timeline WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • One shared place for everyone's photos — not fifteen • Private and invite-only: Piles are visible only to people you invite • See who added what and who loved which shots • Download the whole Pile, or just the ones you want Built for families and friend groups who take a lot of photos together and are tired of losing them in the group chat. Start a Pile, invite your people, and finally get every photo from the trip. Piles are private and invite-only. GimmePhoto never sells your photos or your data.
