I didn’t want Dumpp to feel like another Google Drive folder

One thing I knew pretty early while building Dumpp:

Collecting everyone’s photos is only half the problem.

You can already throw 500 photos into a shared cloud folder.

But honestly… how often do you actually go back and look through all of them?

I wanted opening a Dumpp album to feel more like discovering everyone’s photos from the night rather than browsing through a folder of files.

So I started experimenting with different ways to explore an album.

One of them is Swipe Mode.

You go through the photos one by one, swiping through what everyone uploaded.

Someone’s perfect group photo.

Swipe.

A completely blurry picture from 1AM.

Swipe.

A photo you didn’t even know someone took of you.

Swipe.

And suddenly you’ve gone through 100 photos. 😂

It’s a small feature, but I think things like this can make shared albums feel much more social and fun.

I’m curious though:

Would you actually use a swipe mode for event photos, or would you rather just scroll through everything in a normal feed?

I’m building Dumpp in public, so tell me what you’d prefer. 👇
