Privacy & Security Are Key Priorities

From day one, we built My Family & Friends to help you stay in touch with family and friends and share special moments captured in photos and videos that bring people together. Some of your most personal moments are shared with My Family & Friends, which is why we built transmission encryption into our app. When encrypted, your photos and videos are secured from falling into the wrong hands.

Security By Default

My Family & Friends’ transmission encryption is available when you share photos and videos with family and friends who use our app. Many other apps only encrypt photos and videos between you and them, but My Family & Friend’s transmission encryption ensure only you and the people you’re sharing with can view the content. This is because your photos and videos are secured with a lock, and only the recipients and you have the special key needed to unlock and view them.
