In Onlime, there are two ways – or views – of your content in the cloud; Files and Photos.

If you use Photos, access the timeline and create albums here, they will be separate from the actual way you have organized the folders from your computer and subsequently transferred to Onlime.


You can create albums with images from your own folders with albums from your devices in two ways:

First method: Add photos from timeline to album

  1. transfer your folders/files to Onlime

  2. select your photos on the Photos timeline at https://cloud.onlime.dk/photo and add them to a photo album.

Second method: Transfer your photos via our website directly to a new album

  1. Create a new photo album by selecting "New album"

  2. Drag and drop photos and videos from your computer into the new album

  3. Make sure to close all other web pages and application for the most stable transfer. If you have many hundreds of images, transfer less than 100 items at a time.
