About

Imagine that you just met friends or family. Some people took photos. You would like to have them. But getting them is a mess: Some people send pictures in low quality via WhatsApp. Others put them in a shared album on a cloud service you don't have. Most people don't do either of those things, because it is so tedious. The result is that you miss out on many nice memories. Picture Bee solves this problem. Its name is inspired by a bee that collects nectar from flowers. Here is how it works: 1. You create an album for your event. You give it a title. Importantly, you also specify when the event took place. 2. You upload your pictures from the event. Because Picture Bee knows when the event took place, it can automatically show you the right photos to select. 3. You share the album with your friends. When they join it, their pictures from the event are similarly shown to them. This means that your friends can give you their photos with just a few taps. It could not be easier. Each person receives the photos on their phone, as if they had taken them themselves. You don't have to use Picture Bee to see them. What's more, your phone automatically backs up the pictures to your usual photo storage, whether it is iCloud, Google Photos or something else. Picture Bee is free and does not require creating an account. Try it now!
