What it does

Everything you love about
cloud photo apps. On your hardware.

Your home server does everything a cloud photo service does — automatic backup, smart search, face recognition, memories, map view — except it all runs on a small device in your home. Your photos never leave your network. No one else sees them.

📱
Automatic backup
Install the free app on every phone in the household. Every photo taken from that point forward backs up automatically the moment your phone connects to home WiFi. Nothing to remember. It just happens.
Unlimited · Free forever · No storage limits
🔍
Smart search
Search for what's in the photo — "beach," "birthday cake," "dog," "sunset." Your home server understands what's in your photos and finds them instantly. Everything runs locally. Your photos never leave your home to make this work.
Local · Private · No cloud processing
👤
Face recognition
Your device automatically groups photos by the people in them. Search by name and find every photo that person appears in — across your entire library. Runs privately on your own hardware. No face data is ever sent anywhere.
Local · Private · No cloud processing
📍
Map view
Every photo placed on a map based on where it was taken. Browse your life by location — every trip, every city, every memory plotted geographically. All your GPS data stays on your device.
Local · Private · No cloud processing
🌍
Access from anywhere
Your library is accessible from your phone anywhere in the world — a hotel room, a coffee shop, a friend's house. Securely connected to your home device without anyone else's servers in the middle. Your booklet walks you through the five-minute setup.
Private connection · No subscription
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
Everyone gets their own space
Each person in the household has their own private library — their photos, their search, their face recognition. A shared family album collects photos automatically. And each person's photos are on their own drive, which goes with them if life changes.

Your past library

Start today. Add your
history whenever you're ready.

Your server ships with your parent drive formatted and ready. From the moment you plug in, every new photo backs up automatically. You don't need your historical library to get started — the server is immediately useful from day one.

When you're ready to bring your past home — every photo from Google Photos going back years — we copy it onto an archive drive and ship it to you. Plug it in alongside your parent drive and your entire history appears. Past and present, together, privately.

The archive drive is yours to keep. It can be unplugged and taken anywhere, passed down, or stored as a permanent offline backup. Just like the parent drive — it belongs to you unconditionally.

Day one — server arrives with parent drive ready. Plug in, connect phones, start backing up immediately
When you're ready — order your archive drive with your past library loaded
Plug in the archive drive — history appears alongside new photos. No duplicates.
Adding a family member? Same idea — their archive drive plugs in, their library joins the server. Their drive is theirs to take if they ever leave.

What ships to you

Everything configured.
Nothing to figure out.

Most home photo devices arrive as a blank slate. You spend a weekend installing software, configuring settings, and wondering why nothing works. Most people never get there.

Your Unchained Home device ships completely set up — software installed, configured, and tested. Your parent drive is formatted and ready inside. Plug in, scan the QR code on the bottom, set your password. The whole thing takes about five minutes.

From that moment, every photo you take backs up automatically. Your parent drive is your home base — sized for years of memories, yours unconditionally.

Want to add your past library? Order an archive drive — it plugs right in alongside your parent drive and your history appears. Keep using Google Photos exactly as you do now. Your server is your second copy.

Access from anywhere

Your library goes
wherever you go.

One of the reasons people stick with cloud photo apps is simple: their photos are always there, on any device, anywhere in the world. Your home server does the same thing — except your photos are on hardware you own, not a company's server.

We set up secure remote access before your device ships. Your booklet walks you through a five-minute setup — download one free app, sign in, done. After that your phone is privately connected to your home library wherever you are. No complicated setup. Nothing technical.

Traveling and want to pull up a photo? It's there. Want to show someone a picture? Open your phone. Your entire library — privately, on hardware you own.

No subscription. No extra charge. Remote access is included. The setup is in your booklet.
At home — open any browser on your WiFi, your entire library is right there
On your phone — new photos back up automatically every time you get home
Traveling — full library on your phone, anywhere in the world
Family members — each person has their own private space on their own devices
The public internet — your device is completely private. Not exposed. Not searchable. Not accessible to anyone but you.
