2021-08-22 GreatAlbum Update for Pioneer Incubator

Created by Seema on 20-Aug-21
Updated by Seema on 27-Aug-21

Summary

The team has been really focused on two main priorities:

  1. Rebuild MVP on AWS with newest version of OpenSocial distribution of Drupal
  2. Implement the new Figma designs for the MVP

We're hopeful that as we quickly rebuild GreatAlbum MVP, we'll finally wrap up our current sprint, so we can re-launch our private beta

KEY FEEDBACK FROM PIONEER MEMBERS:

I backup photos on icloud and onedrive. Although my sharing portal is usually google drive, and not pictures. Checked your website and indeed what you're doing is great. Being too busy and nerdy these days, I rarely even remember to take pictures nor share them, although have shared some pics in time past, but I think I'll do more in the near future, likely a new habit coming. Well done for your last update.

I'm in the 2000 - 4000 photo range. And so far I've just slapped them all onto various external hard drives
My photo storage is a mess lol...some day I'll need to go through all of them and sort them proper. Made a note just now to check out your work here again when I do haha

@whiskdating

I back up more than 10k photo/videos to iCloud. I almost never share albums with others, I typically just airdrop or send over iMessage. There's really nothing holding me back from sharing albums, I just don't feel much of a need to.

Love that. You may focus on expatriates or emigrants wanting to remain connected with families abroad (I've experience as expat). Focus on security but also simplicity (grandparents shall be able to use it)....good one!
