Photos

Overview

Photos is where you can explore public posts across the community. Open any photo to see details, add it to your favorites, or share a link.

Use hashtags and filters to discover themes, events, and creators you care about.

Browse & discover

Scroll the Photos feed to view recent public posts. Click a photo to open its detail view.

Look for hashtags in captions (e.g., #sunset). Selecting a hashtag opens a page with all related photos.

Open photo details

Select a thumbnail to open the photo page. You can view a larger image, caption, author, taken date, and any attached hashtags.

Where available, you may also see location/time, and an action menu for additional options.

1. Click any photo in the feed
2. Review caption and hashtags
3. Use the ••• menu for extra actions (when shown)

Favorite and share

Tap the heart icon to add a photo to your favorites (if you are signed in).

Use the share menu to copy a link to the photo page and send it anywhere.

Download (when allowed)

Some photos provide a download action. If you see a download button or menu item, select it to save a copy to your device.

If download is not available, the author has chosen to disable it for that post.

Privacy & visibility

Only public posts appear in Photos. Private or restricted posts will not be shown here.

When you post your own photos, choose the desired visibility. You can keep content private or share it selectively.

Hashtags & search basics

Hashtags help group related content and improve discovery. Click a hashtag to see more photos with the same tag.

Later, you will be able to search help content by keyword. This article is stored as plain text so it can be indexed easily.

Troubleshooting

Photo not opening: check your network connection and try refreshing the page.

Photo missing from Photos: it may be private or the upload is not complete.
