Stingle Photos
Your Private Cloud for Memories
• A fully open‑source, ad‑free app that lets you store, back up, and share photos and videos with end‑to‑end encryption.
• Your media stays safe, your data stays yours.
Why Choose Stingle Photos?

• Minimal metadata – we keep only what’s essential: email, registration date, plan, device count, and encrypted‑file stats.

• You alone control access – even if the servers are breached, the content remains unreadable.
