Gather with one link, and keep every photo in one album, as originals. RoostDay is a shared album for your group. Invite people with an invitation or a link, and the photos scattered across everyone's phones come together in one album, in the order they were taken. Your phone's photo library gets sorted by people, tags and places, and group photos can be saved at original quality, whoever uploaded them. ■ Organize your phone's photos — by people and tags · Faces in your phone's photos are grouped person by person. Name them, and pin yourself and the people you see most to the front. · Tags like Travel, Autumn leaves, Beach, Birthdays and Dogs come from what's in each photo, and the place it was taken becomes a tag too. Add and edit tags yourself. · Combine people, tags, places and years to find the photo you want right away. · Burst shots are grouped as similar photos so you can pick the extras and clear them from your phone (to the phone's trash). · Send picked photos straight to other apps. · Analysis happens on your phone only. Faces, tags and locations aren't sent to our servers. ■ Suggested albums · missing photos · Days with the same people, or a trip, are suggested as group albums. · Photos missing from albums you already shared are found and added in one tap. · In a group's Library, link faces to members to see the photos each member appears in, and the ones several of them are in together. ■ Easy photo sharing, group by group · Create a group and send a link — that's it. Each get-together adds an album. · Photos from many people merge by when they were taken, and late uploads drop into their place on the day. · The same file is kept once, and similar shots stand as one set. If someone's camera clock is off, you're offered a one-tap fix. · People who get a share link can look around the group's albums, photos and plans first, without signing up. · Members save anyone's photos at original quality. In the app, they go straight into your photo library. · Relive the day with Highlights (most-loved photos and moments shot together) and the Feed (a day-by-day summary). · Play an album like a photo frame, or put it on a TV or laptop screen to watch together. ■ Default album — free in every group · Every group has a default album for everyday photos (up to 300 photos you add yourself, free). · Photos taken with the camera in the group chat collect there automatically. ■ Free invitations too · Invitation templates for weddings, first birthdays, birthdays, 60th birthdays, openings and gatherings are free. · Guests need no app and no sign-up. RSVP and a guestbook live inside the invitation. · Guests who come in through "Join the group" at the bottom add their photos to the same album. ■ Where the group keeps going · Group chat, a shared calendar, polls, to-dos and a bucket list in one place. · New photos and news arrive as notifications. · The Hotspots map shows where people take the most photos, and where your groups' photos were taken. ■ How your photos are kept safe · Only group members can upload photos and save originals. · Where photos were taken is shown on the map to group members only, and never sent to people viewing through a share link. · Deleted photos stay in the trash for 15 days, so they can be restored. · Albums and photos are kept out of search engines. ■ Pricing Groups, invitations, plans, chat and the default album are free. The album you make for each get-together uses an album pass (S 300 · M 1,000 · L 3,000 photos) that keeps originals for 5 years — and when one member pays, everyone in that album gets it. Start with your Kakao, Google or Apple account. You must be 14 or older to sign up.
