Memories has been built ground-up for high performance and is extremely fast when configured correctly. In our testing environment, it can load a timeline view with 100k photos in under 500ms, including query and rendering time!
Some features to highlight:
- A timeline similar to Google Photos where you can skip to any time in history instantly.
- AI-based tagging that runs locally on your server, identifying and tagging people and objects.
- Albums and external sharing.
- Metadata editing support
- A world map of your photos, supported both on mobile and the web
- Did I mention it's extremely fast?
