Features
A complete photo library, built for photos — plus a few ideas of our own.
The Fotomania extras
On top of everything you'd expect from a modern photo library, we added what felt missing.
The album name, right on the photo
A subtle badge on every thumbnail shows which album(s) a photo belongs to — personal or shared. See where each image lives at a glance, without opening it.
The file name on hover
Hover over a photo to see its original file name — handy to check or find a specific shot.
Rename your photos
Give your images a clear name ("Lea's birthday") instead of an unreadable IMG_2043, and find it easily with the search field.
Hosted in Europe, protected by the GDPR
Your photos and videos stay on European servers. No data reselling, no advertising analysis.
A shared space for the family
One subscription, a shared space, and everyone keeps their private corner — up to 5 members.
Interface and support in English
Localised interface and human support; features useless outside Europe (Google Cast) are removed.
Desktop apps we build ourselves
Unlike most photo libraries, Fotomania has its own native macOS and Windows apps: your photos are directly accessible from your computer, like a folder.
And everything you expect from a photo library
Automatic backup
- Backup from your phone (iOS & Android), in the background, the moment a photo is taken
- Photos, videos, RAW, Live Photos and motion photos
- Import from your computer (web and desktop apps)
- Original quality and metadata (date, location, EXIF) preserved
- Automatic duplicate detection
Organisation & search
- Chronological timeline, by year and month
- Smart search: objects, scenes, places, even text inside images
- Text search (OCR): find a photo by the text it contains — a poster, a menu, a receipt, a handwritten note.
- Face recognition and grouping by person
- Map: find your photos by location
- Memories: "on this day", a year ago, two years ago…
- Mark your favourite photos with a heart to find them instantly
Albums & sharing
- Personal and shared albums, with comments and likes in shared albums
- Share with a loved one: their photos appear in your library
- Secure share links (password, expiry)
- A space for each family member
On all your devices
- iOS and Android mobile apps
