写真を静かに見るためのSNS。 一般的なSNSでは、写真はフィードに流れていくだけです。通知、おすすめ、広告——写真以外の情報が多すぎる。Archivは写真だけに絞ったシンプルな空間で、1枚1枚をちゃんと見られます。 ■ 台紙に写真を自由配置 1枚の台紙に複数の写真を好きな位置・サイズで並べられます。写真を「組む」ことで、1枚では伝わらなかったストーリーや雰囲気が生まれます。 ■ 連作として作品をまとめる 複数の台紙をまとめて「作品」として管理できます。プロフィールがそのまま自分のポートフォリオになります。 ■ Instagram連携 Archivで作ったレイアウトをそのままInstagramに投稿できます。別途編集し直す手間がありません。 ■ リアクション機能 「構図」「光」「色」など写真に特化したタグでリアクションを送り合えます。「いいね」より具体的なフィードバックが届きます。
