Today, Amazon is launching a selection of new Prime Photos features for its Prime members and their family in the US. The update is designed to help users better organize and share their photos with friends and family members.
For starters, Amazon is giving Prime members the ability to share their unlimited photo storage perk with up to five friends or family members, even if they're not existing Prime members. Shared users can then contribute their pictures to the new private ‘Family Vault', which can be viewed and updated by all the family. Amazon is also throwing in 5GB of additional storage for videos, documents, and other files.
To help make organizing a huge collection of pictures a little easier, Amazon has also updated its Prime Photos app with new search functionality. This can now be used to pick out pictures based on people, places, or object, much like the search options found in Google Photos. For example, users can search for pictures of a 'sunset' or 'wedding' and see accurate results. Customers can also browse photos of individual family members and friends in the People view, as well as search and filter by location or date.
Amazon Photos lets you back up, organize, and share all of the photos and videos from your phone, computer, and other devices. You can access all your photos on nearly any device and share them with family and friends. This photo storage app keeps your photos and videos safe, even if.
Unlimited storage is already pretty great, but it's still tough to beat a physical print out when you want to look over a few memories. Amazon customers can now order photo books, cards, and prints of pictures in their Photos account directly though the website. Amazon Print products start at just nine cents a print, ranging up to more than $19.99 for a photo book. All purchases come with free delivery for Prime members. You can find more about Amazon Prints here.
Of course, Amazon Prime is about much more than Photos. Members also gain access to free two day shipping, unlimited Prime Music streaming, and Prime Video exclusives. The membership fee sits at $99 each year or can now be bought for $10.99 per month.
