Navigating Your Shelf

A quick tour of your personal shelf.

Your Shelf

After signing in, you'll land on your shelf. Here's what you'll find:

  • Your Albums — Every Album you're part of, in one place. Each card shows a label so you can tell at a glance whether you're the Owner, an Editor, or a Member.
  • Recent Activity — The latest photos, videos, and messages added to your albums.
  • Quick Actions — Shortcuts to create a new album, invite friends, or manage your account.

Your role on each album

  • Owner — You created the album. You can manage everything: invite people, approve members, change settings, and view stats.
  • Editor — Someone invited you to help run their album. You see the same controls and alerts as the owner, so you can add content, approve requests, and keep things moving.
  • Member — You've been invited to an album someone else put together. You'll see a friendly card with a View Album button so you can jump in anytime.

When you're part of enough albums in more than one role, a handy filter appears above your list so you can show just the ones where you're the Owner, an Editor, or a Member.

Tap any album to open it and start adding memories!
