Personal boards
One phone, your own collections, nobody else looking.
- Unlimited boards by topic
- Photos and video on the same board
- Sections inside a board
- Nothing public unless you make it so
A mobile app for everyday phone users
Save a photo or a video, drop it on a board, find it again in two taps. Your media, sorted the way you actually think about it.
A phone gallery sorts by one thing: the day the file landed on it. That works for a week. It stops working the moment you are looking for the kitchen you photographed last spring, the clip a friend sent you about a bike rack, and the three screenshots you took of the same recipe.
MEDIA BOARD puts a second layer over that pile. A board is a subject you care about — a flat you are renovating, a trip you are planning, a band you keep finding videos of — and anything that belongs to it goes on it. Photos you shot, videos you saved, things people sent you. The file stays where it is; the board is how you get back to it.
Nothing is scored, ranked or pushed at you. There is no stream that refreshes while you are trying to remember what you were looking for. You open a board, you see what you put on it, and that is the whole idea.
Make a board for anything — Bathroom tiles, Climbing trips, Dinner ideas. No fixed categories to squeeze your life into.
Stills and clips sit on the same board. A thirty-second video of a technique belongs next to the photo of the result, not in a different app.
Move items between boards, group them into sections inside a board, and reorder them so the thing you reach for most is on top.
Send one board to one person. They see what is on it and nothing else from your phone.
Open a board up so someone else can add to it — useful when a trip, a move or a wedding is being planned by more than one of you.
Public boards are there to look through when you want ideas instead of a search box and an empty screen.
What a board looks like while it is being built, shared and picked over.
Tell us which of these you are after and we will point you at the right build.
One phone, your own collections, nobody else looking.
For the trip, the move or the project being planned by more than one person.
For people who collect on a subject and want others to be able to browse it.
MEDIA BOARD is in early access — what you get and when depends on the device you use, so ask before you plan around it.
Not twelve. Pick the subject you currently lose things in and name the board after it.
Add from your camera roll, or share into MEDIA BOARD from wherever you found the photo or clip.
Drag items into order, split the board into sections once it gets long, move strays to a board where they belong.
Send the board to one person, open it up so they can add, or publish it for anyone to browse.
After a few weeks the useful thing is not the app — it is the boards. A board called Flat that holds every photo of every radiator, tile and door handle you have considered. A board called Bikes with the four repair videos you keep needing. A board you and someone else built for a trip, still there after the trip, worth opening again.
That is the honest promise: less time scrolling backwards through a gallery, and a place to put the next thing you find so you are not scrolling backwards tomorrow either.
If you want an audience, follower counts and a feed that moves, this is the wrong app. MEDIA BOARD is quiet on purpose. It is for collecting, keeping and handing things to the handful of people who want them.
Leave your name and email and tell us what you would use a board for — it decides what we build next.
Thanks — someone from the MEDIA BOARD team will get in touch shortly with the next steps.
