Seagate drive
One library: everything with you all the time

We get it; life gets complicated. Memories of work, family, travel, achievements and more are all stored as photos and files on the devices that were handy at the time we produced them. Finding them again means remembering we have them, finding where they are stored, and making sure we have the right equipment to access them.
The memories and stories of our life end up spread out across phones, computers, cameras, drives, disks, the cloud, photo albums and shoeboxes. What a mess! Who has time for all that?
Let Mylio help you turn that mess into one library – private, protected and with you all the time.
Seagate & Mylio: better together

Mylio is the ultimate photo organizer, beautifully displaying your existing folders. Mylio also protects your original files by making sure that you have more than one copy of your original files. The easiest way to protect your entire library is by adding a dedicated Protection Drive (aka Vault Drive) to your Mylio account.
You can protect everything. Connect your new Seagate External USB drive to your computer, and Mylio can set it up to automatically protect your library, preventing you from losing your photos when one of our devices is damaged, lost or stolen.
Seagate One Touch Drives and Photo Drives come with a complimentary subscription to Mylio Create ($50/year value), offering twice the max-library library size as the standard Mylio Free plan. Mylio Create also expands the number of photo viewing devices (computers, tablets and smartphones) available on your account from three to four devices. Get more room to grow your library and access everything wherever you are and on any device.

Rediscover moments that matter

Face Recognition in People View
People – many of the best memories revolve around the people you love and the special relationships you build with them. Mylio’s superb Face Recognition technology automatically finds important people in your life by looking for their faces in all of your photos, with the ability to recognize each person through the many stages of life. Our intelligent software quickly and consistently finds the people you tagged and named in your existing library, and continues to surface their faces as your photo collection grows. It also groups faces you have not yet named so you can quickly tag them at once using our bulk tagging feature.
People View lets you review and tag faces individually, tag faces in bulk, tag undetected faces, and even bulk ignore faces you do not want to be detected in the future. The latest version of Mylio enables you to tag individually and in bulk from any view using the people tag tool.
Imagine the impact... of uncovering lost memories as Mylio reveals pictures of people who have played major roles in your life story.


Dates and Events in Life Calendar
Your life story is a timeline filled with milestone moments and significant events. Mylio helps automatically organize your library by synchronizing with your digital calendars and displaying your media in a beautiful Life Calendar, viewable as decades, years, months and days. Connect your Outlook, iCal or Google Calendar and Mylio automatically groups your images and videos into events. Click an event title, and re-experience the memories. Mylio can display all events from your imported calendars, or only those events that have images and files associated.
Niece's birthday party? Mylio will group all your photos according to the calendar details. Vacation in Europe? Events can span multiple days and locations.
Quickly view your entire library by decade, year, month or day. Rediscover the moments that really matter.
Locations in Map View
We travel to experience life in a different way, and those experiences become the true treasures of our lives. New foods, new friends, new perspectives – Mylio lets you relive those experiences quickly and easily by grouping your geotagged photos into a Map View.
Today, most cameras and smartphones tag photos with GPS location information. Mylio uses this information to display your library on a world map, allowing you to browse memories by location. Mylio even lets you add location information to your photos by dragging pictures to locations on the map, forever connecting your memories to where they happened.
Where have I been? Where I have not yet explored? With Mylio, your photos and videos become a map of your life, sorted by location, and easily accessible in your pocket.

Organize everything — anytime, anywhere
Folders and Albums

Work the way you want to work, organizing once and letting Mylio reflect that organization on any device.
When using Mylio, your content doesn’t live on the cloud like other photo library apps. It lives on your own devices. If your content is already organized in folders, Mylio simply creates a beautiful rendition of those folders, allowing you to see everything and quickly find the exact item you want.
Folders in Mylio are the same folders on your drives. If you organize your folders in Mylio, your file system will reflect the change. Likewise, if you change, move or delete anything using the file browser on your computer, Mylio will detect the changes immediately and synchronize them to all your devices.
Albums enable you to create collections of photos and videos without affecting the folder structure. One photo can be in multiple albums without creating any duplication or wasting valuable drive space. You can remove a file from an album without deleting the actual file from your library.
Accessing everything in a beautiful visual structure makes it amazingly simple to find exactly what you are looking for right when you want it.

Ratings, Labels and Flags
We take pictures for many different reasons: from capturing and preserving the memories of a family vacation to reminders of where we parked at the airport. In other words, not all images are equal. Mylio makes it easy to highlight your best and most important files using Ratings, Labels, and Flags. Once you have marked an image, Mylio will showcase your favorite images on the covers of folders and in your Life Calendar. You can also filter any view to show only files you have marked as important. Of course, the Ratings, Labels, and Flags will synchronize across devices.
Ratings are a ranking system. Rank your images from 0 to 5 stars.
Labels of different colors can be added to any file, and you can decide what each color represents in your own library.
Flags can be easily set as on or off, and are often used to mark the files you want to get back to later.
While you rank, flag and label your favorite images, you make them easier to find. Mylio’s global ranking system automatically update the covers of dates, folders, and albums to show what matters most to you in every view.
Dates, GPS, Keywords and more

Photos have the magical ability to transport us to another place and time. Modern cameras and smartphones enhance this ability by adding details to photos and videos as metadata: information about the photo that is written into the photo file for apps like Mylio to read. Metadata includes not only time and date, but location information and things like keywords and people tags. Mylio takes full advantage of the metadata in your photos and uses it to automatically organize your collection.
Want to see where in the world you’ve taken photos?
Mylio’s Map View will overlay your photos on a world map for you.
Want to see what you were doing during important events?
Mylio’s Life Calendar™ combines the dates your photos were taken with events in your digital calendar (iCal, Outlook, Google Calendar) to show you a visual timeline of your life, highlighting the most important moments.
However, sometimes the information in your files is inaccurate or incomplete. Mylio allows you to view, edit and enhance this information, so you can better tell your story with your media. For instance, when scanning older printed photographs, slides or negatives, the scan date may not be the date you want to remember. Mylio lets you change the date of your files to match when the original image was taken. What if the GPS location information is missing? Simply drag these images to the correct place on the map and Mylio will to generate the GPS coordinates and save them with your files.
Keywords allow you to associate images and files with each other by describing what you know about the image. Do you photograph birds? Add the names of bird species found in each image as keywords to easily find similar bird pictures later using a simple search.
Combine all your data into unique searches or filters. Want to see only the photos of your kids overlayed on a map? Mylio can do that for you!
Finally, all your recent digital shots and even scans from your personal history can share the same richness of information, becoming one stunning and detailed story of your life. And now with Mylio, all that data is always with you, on every device, everywhere you go.

Cloud Storage vs Mesh Network

Cloud services seem convenient because you agree to let a company hold a single library of your files in their system. Your devices become viewports for that information. With Mylio, your files stay on the devices you own, privately and intelligently communicating directly with each other. This type of private communication system is called a mesh network. This technology makes Mylio much more than an app. Mylio turns your devices into a single smart system for managing your media, accessing it on any connected device, while ensuring your data is both private and protected.
Cloud storage has one major limitation: it requires an Internet connection if you want to access all your files. Some cloud services also limit the size and quality of your content, automatically lowering the resolution of your photos in order to conform to their specifications. When you find yourself with poor or no connectivity, or in areas where it is costly to be connected, you simply resigned yourself to not having access to your collection. Or worse, not being able to safeguard those new photos you just captured.
Mylio is different. Mylio creates a smart network from your independent devices. Any time two or more devices have Mylio running, your own private network is activated and the devices stay synchronized. You can achieve access and protection without needing to have all devices connected at the same time. You can even sync your files and information between devices on a plane or in the wilderness when you don’t have access to the Internet. Mylio protects you where a cloud-based system can’t be accessed.
Encrypted Connections
To prevent unwanted access to your information, Mylio transmits your data using 256 AES Encryption. When you add devices to your Mylio account, they instantly become part of your own private mesh network. Mylio’s smart networking system either creates direct encrypted connections between devices over your local network (LAN), or they can find each other across the Internet, connecting two or more locations into the same a private mesh network, protecting your data with the same encryption. While being transmitted, encryption makes your data unreadable by anyone that isn’t you. This encryption makes it impossible to know what kind of files or how many files are being transmitted without the private decryption key. This key is safely guarded within Mylio, ensuring all your data is only visible inside devices you have added to your own account.

As a photo organizer, I can’t go without an amazing tool that allows me to sync and view my entire iPhone Photo collection on a completely separate platform. My go-to? Mylio Photos. I love Mylio Photos because of the folder structure and backing up outside of Apple Photos.

I finally have the complete overview...

Getting close to 1.4 million images...
Getting close to 1.4 million images that Mylio Photos keeps track of for me. No other program was able to handle this many files. All in one catalog to boot.

I’m sort of obsessed with how easy Mylio Photos functions. This is actually such a good application. Just trying to get the rest of my stuff off Google Drive next so I can clean up all my devices.
