About Synology Photos
Synology Photos runs on a Synology NAS and organizes photos and videos into albums stored on your own hardware. The Android and iOS apps back up photos from a phone to the NAS, and the library can be viewed from any browser.
You can share a single photo, a video or a whole album through a link, with optional passwords and expiry dates. Shared Space lets selected users work on a folder-based library, with access and editing rights set per folder. It suits households and small teams that already own a Synology NAS.
