The timeline and posts

The Keepr home timeline is the shared feed of the circles you're in. When someone posts photos to a circle you belong to, it appears there with its caption, and people can like and comment. A post is a deliberate announcement to chosen circles, which is different from simply adding photos to an album — uploading adds them for whoever can already reach the album, posting shows them to people.

The home timeline is the shared feed of the circles you're in — the social half of Keepr, where the archive half is your albums.

What appears there#

Posts from circles you belong to, newest first, with their captions. People can like them and comment on them.

That's the whole model. There's no algorithm choosing what you see, no promoted content and nothing from anyone you're not connected to.

Posting versus uploading#

Worth separating, because they feel similar and aren't.

Uploading adds photos to an album. Everyone who can already reach that album can see them. It's quiet — nothing announces it.

Posting is deliberate: you choose photos, write a caption, and choose which circles it goes to. It appears in their timeline and they can react to it.

So a year of family photos might be hundreds of uploads and a dozen posts. Uploading is for keeping; posting is for showing.

Choosing who sees it#

You pick the circles when you post. Only those circles see it.

If an album is shared with several circles and you want one post to reach all of them, that's what the Keepr Chain is for — and it keeps the conversation in one place rather than splitting it.

Sharing a whole album#

Rather than posting twenty photos, you can share the album itself. The post shows a preview card — a few pictures and a count — and links through to the album.

Better for "here's the whole holiday" than filling a family's timeline with a hundred separate images.

Milestones#

A post can be marked as a milestone: first steps, a birthday, a first day at school. It gets its own title, the date it actually happened — which may not be the date you posted it — and optionally a place.

The point is findability years later. A milestone stays an event rather than becoming "some photos from March", and you can search for milestones specifically.

You can also pin important ones so they stay near the top of a circle.

Likes and comments#

Both, on posts and on individual photos. Comments can be replied to, so a thread stays readable.

Nothing about engagement is public beyond the circle, and there are no counts shown to anyone outside it.

Common questions

What's the difference between posting and uploading?
Uploading adds photos to an album, for whoever can already reach it. Posting is a deliberate announcement to chosen circles, with a caption, that people can react to.
Who sees my post?
The circles you choose when you post it. Nobody else.
Can I share a whole album rather than individual photos?
Yes. Sharing an album as a post shows a preview card rather than reposting every photo.
Can I mark something as a milestone?
Yes — a post can be recorded as a milestone with its own title, the date it actually happened and a location, so it stays findable as an event.
