Gallerya: Photo Backup

Only what is new gets copied — onto a USB drive you own. No iCloud, no storage subscription, no account, and an archive any computer can read.

Back up your photos and videos to a USB-C drive you own. No iCloud, no storage subscription, no account.

Plug in a USB flash drive, an external SSD or a memory card reader, pick a folder, and Gallerya copies the new photos and videos out of your library and onto it. The drive is the archive. The app is a window onto it.

ONLY WHAT IS NEW Every run copies only what the drive does not already hold. A second backup right after the first copies nothing — no duplicates, no re-copying 40,000 photos to add yesterday's.

FREE UP SPACE ON YOUR IPHONE Once a photo is safely on the drive, Cleanup can delete it from Photos. Every item carries a badge saying whether the archive already holds it, so freeing space never means losing a picture.

THE ORIGINALS, NOT RE-ENCODES Full-resolution HEIC, JPEG and RAW. Original-quality video. Live Photo pairs kept together. Edited and unedited versions both.

VERIFIED, NOT ASSUMED Every file is hashed while it is written, then size-checked afterwards. Nothing enters the catalog until it has been verified, and you can re-verify the whole archive whenever you like.

YOURS TO READ WITHOUT THIS APP The archive is ordinary folders and files, sorted by date, with a plain-text catalog beside them. Any computer can open it. If Gallerya disappeared tomorrow, your photos would not.

BROWSE WHAT IS ON THE DRIVE Your archive as a proper gallery: grouped by year and month, albums preserved, full-screen viewer, video playback with scrubbing and speed control. Share anything back out, or copy it back into Photos.

WORKS COMPLETELY OFFLINE There is no server and nothing is uploaded. Gallerya has no idea whether you are online, which is the point: a backup that needs a signal is not a backup you control.

Free to try: your first 200 items transfer, and your first 50 cleanup deletions, with nothing to pay and nothing to cancel. Whatever it copies stays on your drive whether or not you ever pay.

Unlock the full version for a one-time $4.99 and it is yours for life — no subscription, no renewal, no expiry.

Cleanup is an optional subscription, $0.99 a month or $7.99 a year, which covers deleting from Photos and removing from the archive. It renews automatically, monthly or yearly, until cancelled, and you can cancel any time in your Apple Account settings.
