In short
  • Star the photos you like.
  • Your stars are yours, not everyone’s.
  • Download favourites gets just those.
STEP 1

Star as you scroll

Open the Room and tap the star on any photo you like. You don’t need an account; your picks are kept in your browser.

STEP 2

Each person picks their own

Your friends star their own photos at the same time. Nobody’s picks change what the others see. Sign in and your favourites follow you to other devices.

STEP 3

Download only your favourites

Switch to Favourites to see your picks, then tap Download favourites. You get just those, in original quality.

Questions

Can others see what I starred?

No. Favourites are your own picks in that Room.

What if a favourite gets deleted?

Download favourites leaves it out and tells you, and downloads the rest.
