Cluster makes it possible to create private spaces where you share photos and memories with the people you care about. Create your own space with family, a group of friends, coworkers, people from your home town, or anyone else!


Great for:
• College Students! Share memories with friends not appropriate for other social networks
• New Moms! Share photos of a new baby with close friends and family without spamming everyone on other social networks
• Families! Keep in touch even if you’re not in the same place.


Tons of people already trust Cluster. Here’s why:

• Private & secure: Only invited members of the space can see what you post.
• An app for everyone: Award-winning apps for Android, the web, and more.
• Relevant notifications: Know when people you invited post new things to the space.


How it works:

1. Create a group space.
2. Add the people you care about.
3. Watch those people join and contribute.

The press LOVES Cluster:

• Featured by the NYTimes, TechCrunch and many more!

Update 5-16-26. I tried the app again today. This time it let me log in and it seems to be working. So I bumped up my rating, will try it a while and see if it works again. Dec 2025: I have used this app for 8 years, and it no longer seems to work. what a shame. it used to be so nice. Just reinstalled on my phone and now I can't even sign in. I guess i will need to try to download any photos that others posted from my computer, then find another service.

Since 2017 my family has been using this app to share family pictures and videos safely. We live in Alaska, Illinois, Florida, Mexico and Cuba so it's really amazing to share these moments are our kids grow. But now, this app is trying to make us pay to upload quality videos. The new, free option looks like videos shot from a 90's cellphone. What a shame they chose the ruin this amazing app.

pretty bad technically, seems to take forever to upload photos, and switching to another app stops the process.
