Immich
Self-hosted photo and video management
Immich is a high-performance, self-hosted photo and video management solution. With 60K+ GitHub stars, it's the fastest-growing alternative to Google Photos. Upload, organize, and share your memories—all stored on your own infrastructure with full privacy.
Why Immich?
Google Photos and iCloud store your most personal memories on someone else's servers. They scan your photos, train AI on your data, and can change pricing or terms at any time. Your family photos and videos deserve better—you need a solution that keeps your memories private and under your control.
How It Works
Immich delivers a Google Photos-like experience on your own server. It auto-backs up photos and videos from your phone, uses machine learning for facial recognition and smart search, and organizes everything with albums and timelines. All processing happens locally—your data never leaves your infrastructure.
