Albums

You can create personal albums as you like. Go to “Smart albums” to view albums collected from your photos using computer vision.

Personal albums

Create personal albums and fill them with photos from different folders. Showing your photo galleries to your friends is easy — just share your albums with them.

Create an album

There are several ways to create an album:

Click Create → Album.
Enter a name for the new album.
Select photos.
Click the Create album button in the upper panel.

Go to Albums in the left panel.
Click the New album preset in Personal albums.
Enter a name for the new album.
Select photos.
Click the Create album button in the upper panel.

Share album

You can share the link to an album — just like the link to a file or folder. Albums are created private by default.

Note. You can't set link security settings for albums.

If you shared an album and then decided to hide it, the link won't work. If you then decide to make the album public again, people will be able to access it using the same link.

There are several ways to change album permissions:

Go to the Albums section in the left panel.
Click → Share in the upper-right corner of the album thumbnail.
Choose the link sharing option from the list: copy the link, send it by email, or post it in social networks. To get a QR code link, select the corresponding menu item. Move the slider to the left to make an album private.

Open the album.
Click or choose → Share in the upper panel.
Choose the link sharing option from the list: copy the link, send it by email, or post it in social networks. To get a QR code link, select the corresponding menu item. Move the slider to the left to make an album private.

Note. All shared albums are marked with the

icon.

Smart albums

Places and Trips

In the album “Places and Trips”, you can see all photos of your travels sorted and arranged. Photos from your business trips will never mix up with your vacation shots. Photos of your usual places, such as work and home, are also kept separately. Inside, photos are grouped into albums by the location where they were taken.

Beautiful

In this album, you can see your most beautiful photos. They are nice to look at, cause the feeling of nostalgia, and you can share them with your friends.

Sort

In this album, Yandex Disk collects receipts, screenshots from your phone, and blurry and low-quality photos. You can sort them and delete the photos that you don't need.
