How to share photos between iPhone and Android

Updated 2026-11-03

Short answer

Synz works on both iPhone and Android, so everyone can join one shared album and add their photos no matter which phone they have. If you need the full original files, use a file transfer app or a cloud link instead.

Share an album across both phones

  1. One person creates an album in Synz and sends the invite link.
  2. iPhone users get Synz from the App Store, Android users from Google Play, and everyone signs in with Apple or Google.
  3. Everyone adds photos from their own phone, and both sides see the same album.
