Your moments,
your people.

yooya is a private photo and video community for the groups that matter: family, friends, events. No public feeds. No algorithms. No strangers.

Made for real moments,
not public feeds.

Social media is noisy. yooya is quiet: a dedicated space for the photos you actually want to share, with exactly the people you want to see them.

🔒

Truly private

Every group is invite-only. Your memories stay exactly where they belong.

📸

Beautiful stream

A silky-smooth photo feed with swipeable multi-photo galleries, double-tap to like, and instant comments. All offline-ready.

Independent. Private. German.

yooya is built and operated by moabeach labs — a small, privately held company based in Germany. There are no investors, no advertising business, and no platform interests that compete with yours. Your photos are stored on servers in Germany, never analyzed, never used to train AI models, and never shared with anyone outside your group. What you share stays exactly where you put it.

That moment belongs to your people.

Share it before the night is over.

Create the group
before you go.

No Dropbox links, no "send me your photos" a week later. Set up a yooya group before the trip or night out — everyone shares directly into it, and the photos are all in one place before the weekend is over.

For the occasions
that call for more.

Weddings, baby showers, birthdays: each event type unlocks a dedicated info page your guests can open right inside yooya. No separate website needed.

Photos that look
like memories.

Most apps quietly compress your photos the moment you upload them. We don't. yooya preserves every shot (colors, highlights, and depth) exactly as you captured them.

  • Full HDR photos on iPhone 12 Pro and later
  • Vivid HDR on supported Android devices
  • Beautiful quality for every other device
  • HDR10 HEVC video with H.264 SDR fallback
