The gap

You open a new tab dozens of times a day and see... nothing.

"Everyone hangs photos of their family around the house. Nobody thought to put them on the screen you look at the most."

The digital photo frame is a $2.6 billion market precisely because people want to be reminded of the people they love. Aura and Skylight charge $150 to $300 for a device that sits in one room.

Fondly is that feeling, free, on the surface you open all day, on every device, that travels with you. An infinite photo frame that goes wherever your browser goes.

How it works

Simple in three steps

Add Fondly to Chrome, pick your photos, and open a tab. That's it. No account. No upload. Your photos never leave your device.

Step 01
🖼️

Add your photos

Drop in photos from your camera roll - your family, your wedding, your kids. They stay on your device, always.

Step 02
✦

Pick a daily word

Choose a gratitude prompt, a mantra, or write your own. One quiet line that greets you with every tab.

Step 03
🌅

Open a tab, see your people

A different photo every time. Your family behind the clock, every morning, every afternoon, every time.

What you get

Built for the people who matter most

Your people

Your photos, rotating

Your own photos drift gently behind the clock. A different one every tab, a different memory every time you open your browser.

On-device only
Daily word

Gratitude, mantras, or your own words

A quiet line at the center of every tab. Choose from curated gratitude prompts, calming mantras, or write your own intention for the day.


"Begin where you are. That is always enough."
Private by design

No account. No upload. No feed.

Your photos live on your device. Nothing is ever sent to a server. No one can see your family but you.

Stories

People who start every day fondly

I open a new tab and see my daughter. It sounds small but it actually changes how I start my morning. I didn't expect that.
Sarah K.
Mom of two, Chicago
I sent the gift link to my parents. They installed it and now they see our kids every time they open their computer. My mom texted me crying.
Marcus T.
Father, Atlanta
I open probably 80 tabs a day at work. Every one of them now starts with a photo of my family. It grounds me. I actually look forward to it.

FAQ

Common questions

Your photos stay on your device. They are never uploaded to any server, never stored in the cloud, never seen by anyone but you. Fondly reads them locally and that's where they stay. You don't even need to create an account.
Fondly is free. Always. The core experience - your photos rotating, a daily word, private by design - costs nothing and always will. Pro ($4/mo or one-time) adds shared albums, AI curation, cross-device sync, and the full gift flow for people who want more.
With Pro, you design an album of your photos, add a daily word or note, and we generate a private gift link. You send that link to someone, they click it, they install Fondly, and your album loads on their new tab. They see your family every time they open their browser. No account needed on their end.
Chrome is live today. Edge works through the Chrome Web Store. Safari (Mac and iOS) is in development. A web version is coming for any browser. We want Fondly on every device you use.
Yes, with Pro. You can create a shared album where multiple contributors - a spouse, siblings, grandparents - all add photos. The album then rotates everyone's photos on every new tab. Great for families who are far apart.
