Accepting an album invitation

When someone invites you to their album, you'll see an invitation page the first time you open the link.

  1. Open the album link.
  2. Tap Accept to join. You'll see the album right away.
  3. If you'd rather not join, tap Not right now — you can always come back later.

Once you accept, you'll be able to read posts, leave a memory, and react to other people's posts.

I'm signed in to a different account than the invitation was sent to

Invitations are tied to the email address or phone number they were sent to. If you're signed in with a different account when you open the link, we'll send you back to the sign-in page with a friendly note asking you to sign in with the matching account. Once you do, the invitation will pick up right where you left it.

The link doesn't show an invitation page — it just opens the album

If the invitation has already been used, has expired, or was cancelled by the album owner, we'll quietly drop you onto the album as a regular visitor instead of showing the accept screen. You won't see an error — you'll just see whatever the album has set up for guests. If you think there's been a mix-up, ask the person who invited you to send a fresh invitation.

I tapped a "Leave a memory" button before signing in — what happened?

If you tapped a button on an album page before signing in, we'll bring you right back to it after you sign in. The composer you tapped will be open and ready for you.
