About:
Ente is a secure, end-to-end encrypted photo storage solution that serves as the desktop client for Ente Photos. It allows users to sync, view, and manage their photo library across devices while maintaining complete privacy. The application provides a native desktop experience with features like automatic backup, album organization, and secure sharing capabilities.
Key Features:
  • End-to-end encryption for all photos and videos
  • Cross-platform synchronization across desktop and mobile
  • Offline access to downloaded photos
  • Secure sharing with link-based access controls
  • Automatic backup from local folders
Use Cases:
  • Secure cloud photo storage with privacy-first encryption
  • Cross-device photo library management
  • Encrypted photo backup from desktop computers
Alternatives:
  • google-photos – Google Photos offers more AI features but lacks end-to-end encryption
  • dropbox – Dropbox provides cloud storage but is not photo-focused and has weaker privacy guarantees
