About Acini Photos
Photos for your inner circles — family, friends, weddings, trips. No algorithm, no ads, no strangers. A kitchen table, not a stage. Sharing a photo should feel like showing someone your phone at dinner, not publishing to the internet. That's what Acini is for. HOW IT WORKS Create small, invite-only circles for the people in your life — family, close friends, colleagues, a team. Post a photo to one or more circles. Only the people you chose will ever see it. For weddings, vacations, reunions and other shared occasions, create an event: a temporary circle with a cover, date range and guest list. Everyone drops their photos in the same place, plays them back as a full-screen slideshow, and can reshare a favourite to their own circles. Likes are private — only you can see who liked your photo. Comments are shared within the circle, or send a direct comment to start a quiet one-to-one conversation. WHAT MAKES ACINI DIFFERENT No algorithm. Your feed is chronological, always. No ads, ever. You are not the product. No strangers. Every person in your circles was invited by you. No follower counts, no public likes, no engagement metrics. Passkey login with Face ID / Touch ID. No passwords. Acini is free. A Standard subscription (€0.99/month or €9.99/year) unlocks higher posting limits, video sharing, and hosting multiple events at once. The name comes from the Italian word for the tiny drupelets that make up a raspberry — small things, close together. That's the whole idea.

What’s new
Version 1.6.2 · Updated August 25, 2026
- Inside an event, you can now save any photo or video to your own Photos library, in full quality. Look for "Save to device" in the post menu. - Posting feels calmer: caption first, then one simple "To" section for where your photo goes. The edit menu got the same treatment, and comment and caption boxes now grow as you type.
