What makes us different from the competition
Unlike Google Photos which scans and analyzes your photos for advertising and AI training, PixyVue uses zero-knowledge encryption. We can't see your photos, even if we wanted to. Your memories stay private and are never used for advertising or data mining.
While iCloud Photos only works on Apple TV and Amazon Photos only works on Fire TV, PixyVue works on all major TV platforms including Samsung, LG, Roku, Apple TV, Google TV, Fire TV, and more. Watch your memories on any TV you own.
Google Photos shows you targeted ads based on your photos and activity. PixyVue has zero advertising - not in the app, not in emails, and we never sell your data. Your subscription is our only source of revenue, so we're focused on serving you, not advertisers.
PixyVue offers 15GB of free storage, while iCloud and Amazon only offer 5GB (and Google's 15GB is shared with Gmail and Drive). Our free tier gives you a full 15GB dedicated to your photos and videos.
Unlike iCloud Photos which works best in the Apple ecosystem, PixyVue is truly cross-platform. You can access your photos seamlessly on iOS, Android, Web, and any TV platform. You're never locked into one ecosystem.
PixyVue is fully GDPR compliant, giving you complete control over your data. You can export all your data, delete it permanently, or request information about how it's stored. Your data rights are always protected.
