Everywhere else in Keepr you look at sharing from the album's side: who can see this? Connections looks at it from the person's side: what can they see?
That's usually the question you actually have.
What it shows#
Everyone you're linked to, through a circle, a shared album, a Family Hub or an invitation, in one list.
Open a person and the two of you are on one screen:
- Photos you both see. Only photos you can both open. A photo hidden from a circle, or in an album only one of you can reach, is not counted. Photos with people in them come first: Keepr can tell that a photo has people in it, never who they are.
- Where you're together. The circles, Family Hubs and albums you're both in. The ones that are yours say so.
- Keeping in touch. How many of each other's photos you have liked and commented on.
- Where it started. The first photo you could both see, and when.
Changing it#
Share more opens a list of your own circles and albums they're not in yet. For an album you choose whether they can only view or can also add photos, and who pays for the storage of what they add. They get an invitation, and nothing is shared until they accept.
To take them out of one place, tap ⋯ on one of your own circles or albums and confirm. Or, at the bottom, remove them from everything you own at once.
Doing it here is usually faster and less error-prone than working album by album, and it's the only view that shows you the complete picture for one person.
Removing access doesn't remove their photos#
If someone added photos to your albums, those stay where they are. They put them in your album, and revoking access doesn't withdraw their pictures.
If you want the photos gone as well, that's a separate action. Worth thinking about rather than doing reflexively — they're someone else's photographs, and in a family album they may be photographs other people were counting on.

They are told#
When you take someone out of a circle or an album, or out of everything at once, Keepr sends them a notification saying so. They stop seeing what you removed.
Invitations live here too#
Invitations you've sent and invitations waiting for you both appear alongside your connections, so someone half-way through joining isn't invisible until they finish.
See Invitations.
Worth doing occasionally#
Sharing accumulates. A circle made for one holiday, an album shared with someone at work, a bundled link sent to a person who's since drifted away.
Looking through Connections once or twice a year is the quickest way to notice anything you'd rather tidy up — and it's the same list that answers "who can actually see my children's photos?" if you ever want to check.
