Your personal library

The Personal area of Keepr is your own side of the app, separate from anything shared. It holds your albums — including any that live in a Family Hub — the photos and posts you've saved to come back to, and any transfers where someone has asked you for photos or offered you theirs. Albums here that aren't in a hub or shared with a circle are visible only to you.

Personal is your own side of Keepr. It has three parts.

Albums#

Every album you've created, whether it lives in your personal storage or in a Family Hub.

An album is visible only to you unless you've done one of three things with it: put it in a hub, shared it with a circle, or invited someone to it by name. Nothing is shared by default and nothing becomes shared without you doing it.

You can reorder albums so the ones you open often sit at the top.

Saved#

Photos and posts you've bookmarked, in one place, so something you wanted to come back to isn't lost in a library of thousands.

See Saved photos.

Transfers#

Where ownership changes get handled — someone asking for photos of theirs that you uploaded, or offering you theirs. Anything waiting on you appears here, and nothing changes hands without both people agreeing.

See Ask for photos of you and Give your photos to someone.

How much space you're using#

Personal is also where storage lives: how much you've used, what's using it, and the tools for getting some back — reviewing duplicate stacks and removing originals you no longer need.

Worth knowing before you upgrade: those two together often free more than people expect, particularly on a plan that keeps original files.

Common questions

Is my personal library private?
An album is visible only to you unless you've put it in a Family Hub, shared it with a circle, or invited someone to it by name.
What's the difference between Personal and a Family Hub?
Personal albums use your own storage and are yours alone by default. Hub albums use the hub's shared storage and are visible to its members, unless you mark one private to you.
What are transfers?
Requests to change who owns a photo — either someone asking you for photos of theirs in your album, or offering you photos of theirs.
