How it works
Three steps. That's the whole onboarding.
STEP 01
Create your profile.
Name, email, photo. That's it. No phone number, no birthday required, no friend graph.
Kari Olsen
kari@youremail.com
STEP 02
Start a family group, or join one.
Owners create a group and share a private group code. Everyone else just types it in. No follow requests, no friend lists.

STEP 03
Post everyday life.
Open camera. Take a photo. It's on every family member's feed. That's the entire posting flow.
From the beta circle
Families in the beta say it best.
Kinfeed is a lovely, safe and simple way to keep the family up to date – whatever your age, and however comfortable you are with technology. Little glimpses of everyday life make us feel closer to each other, without taking up time or needing many words. It’s amazing how much of a difference these small updates make to closeness, contact and keeping up with each other as a family.

A note from the founders
Made in Norway, for every family.
We are two brothers from Norway. We grew up in the same house, moved out, started families of our own, and watched the apps our parents joined to keep up with us turn into ad machines.
Kinfeed is the app we wanted for ourselves. We build it the Norwegian way: slowly, honestly, with the kind of design where grandma lands on the right screen without asking anyone. Long winters and quiet trust. That is the product.
No investors are telling us to grow faster. No ad model is telling us to keep you scrolling. Just the photo, the people in it, and the day it was taken.

What is Kinfeed?
Kinfeed is a closed-circle photo feed for your family. You post a photo, and it shows up for the people in your family group. No likes, no comments, no sharing, no algorithm, no ads.
When does Kinfeed launch?
Soon. Kinfeed is coming to the App Store and Google Play, and we will not ship it before it is ready. The articles section is the best place to follow progress.
Is Kinfeed free?
Kinfeed is free during beta, with unlimited family groups and no card required. There will never be ads. Any pricing after beta will be announced well before it applies.
Who can see my photos?
Only the members of the group you post to. There are no public profiles, no search and no discovery. People join a group with a private code that the group owner can rotate at any time.
Can a photo be shared outside the family?
There is no share button, no public link and no export to other apps. What is posted stays inside the family circle.
