Store, Organize, and Privately Share Your Digital Photos and Videos with ibi

This post is sponsored by the makers of ibi.  We were sent a complimentary unit so we could share our real opinions with our readers.

If I told you how many digital photos I have, you wouldn’t believe me. With the rise of smartphones, I know most people are taking more photos than ever before, but I really do think I go a bit overboard sometimes. How can I not?  My family and I are always going places, doing things, and creating amazing memories.  I’d be remiss if I didn’t do my best to document them all.

So yes, after ten years of documenting memories, I have gathered quite a collection of photos.  Unfortunately, they’re a disorganized mess and rarely seen by anyone other than myself.  Remember the days when you would have a roll of film developed and then put the pictures into an album?  I’ve always meant to do that with my digital photos, but the idea of editing and organizing themis overwhelming.  And that, my friends, is where ibi comes in.

ibi is a smart photo manager that makes it easy to collect, find, and share your pictures and videos.  How does it work?  With very little effort.  No, seriously.  Plug ibi in, download the app for iOS or Android, set up your account, and you’re ready to start organizing and sharing.

The first thing you’ll want to do is import the goods.  You can sync photos and videos from your phone, from a USB drive, and from your social media accounts.  Do you currently have memories living in DropBox or Google Drive?  No worries.  ibi works with your cloud storage too.  They even have a desktop app, which is my personal favorite way to go.  With 2 TB of storage, ibi can handle just about any photos you can throw at it.  Once you’ve got everything synced up, you’ll be excited to start setting up your albums.  It’s so easy to do that it actually makes organizing your pictures fun!

I bet you love the idea of ibi already—and we’re only just getting to the best part.  With ibi, you can privately share your albums or individual photos with your friends and family.  Social media has been great for staying connected and sharing what’s happening in everyone’s lives, but some moments are a little too personal to be shared with 600 or more of your closest “friends.” That’s when ibi’s Inner Circle comes in handy.  Use this private space to share your moments with specific people, and you can even invite them to contribute their own photos and videos.

Our family members are spread out among a few states, and they don’t get to see our children nearly often enough.  Using ibi means they never have to miss out on seeing us make memories, but we aren’t giving up any of our privacy.  We have a big vacation coming up, and I know grandma is going to love keeping up with our adventures through the photos.  With the many end-of-the-school year events coming up, I’ll be using ibi to share with my friends too.  I definitely don’t want to plaster other people’s children all over social media, so this is great solution.

However you make ibi work for you, you’ll love the convenience of being able to view your photos and videos from anywhere, whether you’re using a phone, a laptop, or a web browser.  We love to gather around the TV and watch our photos and videos via Roku.  That brings back so many memories of vacation pictures on slides, only now we don’t have to mess with slides and projectors.  This is way easier, and the kids get a real kick out of it.
