Pixbox vs Google Photos
Updated 2026-11-08
Google Photos stores and backs up the camera roll in a Google account. Pixbox is a shareable box: albums and a link-in-bio presence on the Photographer hire. It is the page you send someone, not the dump of every photo on the phone.

Send a box
Pixbox is for the set you want seen: a gallery, a presence page, a community album. Google Photos is for keeping every shot searchable in Google. Many people keep both.
Media stays on the hire
Album images live on the Photographer media store. The public page is pixbox.io or the photo.cloudcrew.si twin.
When Google Photos is the right tool
Use Google Photos when backup, search, and phone sync are the job. Open Pixbox when the job is a box someone can visit.
