Everpix – One Stop Photo Cloud Storage Solution?

Everpix™ (free) lets you have all your photos in the cloud, automatically uploaded, organized and curated. View, rediscover, and share your best photos all in one place, effortlessly. Both the Mac uploader and the iPhone app are free.

All Your Photos, In The Cloud

You have thousands of photos spread out across various devices and web services: your computer, phone, Facebook, Flickr, Instagram, etc.

Setting up Everpix once will automatically, and continuously, import all your photos to the cloud, where they can be accessed in one place: anytime, anywhere.

Curate Your Photos With One Click

Photos are about capturing memories, but organizing them and finding the best ones can be a real chore.

Everpix automatically organizes your photos by moments, and resolves any duplicates you may have in your collection. You don’t have to organize a thing.

Their exclusive Assisted-Curation feature is able to recognize photos that are out-of-focus, or improperly exposed, and hide them for you. The curate function can also examine series of photos of the same scene and pick the best one.

Super Simple Photo Sharing

Photo sharing is complicated: you have to configure complex share settings, understanding privacy settings, wait for photos to upload… the list goes on and on.

With Everpix, all your photos are private until you decide to share them, and once you do, it’s literally one click to get the job done. [now this is far better than iCloud]

Everpix is the best way to publish your photos to Facebook and Twitter, as well as send photos via email attachments. Select the photos you want to share, click publish, and you’re done. It’s that easy.
