GatherPix 
Organize. Store. Share. All without the cloud.
GatherPix sorts your photos and videos into meaningful collections called “Gathers” — based on where and when they were taken — uploads them to your private network storage, and lets you share them with family and friends. No cloud. No subscriptions. Just your memories, organized and shared on your own terms.
Everything you need to organize, store, and share your photos
Stop scrolling through thousands of unorganized photos. GatherPix brings structure to your memories and makes sharing them effortless.
Smart Location Matching
Define a location and radius on a map. GatherPix automatically finds every photo taken within that area, whether it was yesterday or years ago.
Date Range Filtering
Create Gathers for specific time periods — a vacation week, a birthday month, or an entire year. Every matching photo is sorted instantly.
Three Gather Types
Location Only, Date Only, or Location + Date — choose the matching strategy that fits your event. The most specific Gather always wins.
Multi-Protocol Storage
Connect to your Synology, QNAP, or any NAS via SMB, WebDAV, or FTP. Your photos go straight to your private storage — no middleman.
EXIF Metadata Extraction
GatherPix reads embedded GPS coordinates and timestamps from every photo and video to determine exactly where and when it was captured.
Background Sync
Set it and forget it. GatherPix runs scheduled syncs in the background, keeping your NAS up to date with new photos automatically.
Collaborative Gathers
Connect to the same NAS as your family or friends. Import their Gather definitions and contribute your photos to shared event folders automatically.
Remote Media Browsing
See photos others uploaded to shared storage right inside the app. Browse bandwidth-friendly thumbnails and download the ones you want to your device.
P2P Sharing via QR Code
No NAS? No problem. Share a Gather directly over WiFi. The other person scans a QR code, browses your photos, and downloads — no server needed.

- Files transfer directly to your NAS — no cloud relay
- Sharing through your NAS stays on your private network
- P2P sharing works over WiFi — no internet connection required
- Credentials stored in encrypted platform keychain
- No accounts, no sign-ups, no data collection
- Open protocol support — you own your infrastructure
