Private groups for every set of photos
Not every photo belongs to the same people. Pixchat is built around private groups: one for the family, one for a trip, one for close friends, one for an occasion. Each group only shows its own photos, and only to the people you added.
What Pixchat is
Pixchat is a private photo-sharing app for friends and family. Share everyday moments in private groups with simple reactions — without the noise of a traditional chat. It is a photo-sharing app rather than a messaging app: private groups, photos as the main content, and simple emoji reactions instead of replies. Read more about Pixchat.
Who this is useful for
Families, friend groups, teams and anyone who currently mixes different audiences into one chat or posts publicly because it is easier.
How Pixchat solves it
- Create as many private groups as you need and add people to each one.
- Every group has its own photos, so audiences never overlap by accident.
- Reactions give each group a light way to respond without conversation.
- Nothing is public — a group is the boundary of who can see the photos.
Getting Pixchat
Pixchat is available on Android. There is no iOS version at the moment.
Common questions
Is Pixchat a chat app?
No. Pixchat is a photo-sharing app. You share photos into private groups and people respond with simple emoji reactions instead of a message thread.
Can I share photos privately with my family?
Yes. You create a private group and add your family members. Photos shared in that group are only visible to the people in it — there is no public feed or profile.
Can I use Pixchat without having a traditional conversation?
Yes, that is the point. A photo plus an emoji reaction is a complete exchange, so nobody has to keep up with a conversation.
Is Pixchat useful for sharing holiday photos?
Yes. A trip can have its own private group where everyone adds their photos as the holiday goes on, so the pictures end up in one place instead of on separate phones.
