Press Kit

Rando is a privacy-first photo discovery app for Mac and Windows. Random discovery surfaces forgotten photos. Drill into any moment, then zoom back out. Multi-display slideshows on every screen, zero setup. All processing stays local. Perfect for parents and hobbyist photographers with large archives on external drives.

Rando transforms how people experience their photo collections by combining random discovery with intentional exploration. Most users have tens of thousands of photos from the DSLR era (2000-2015) sitting on external drives they never open.

Unlike cloud services, Rando processes everything locally. Users point the app at folders on their computer, external drives, or NAS, and forgotten moments start surfacing. When a photo catches their eye, they can drill into that folder, explore that trip or birthday, then zoom back out to random. No other photo app does this.

Key features include multi-display slideshows (different photos on every screen, zero setup), quick delete/culling from slideshow, multi-source mixing, full keyboard control, custom tagging, and filesystem-level scanning that loads tens of thousands of photos in seconds. Works completely offline. Supports all common formats including RAW and animated GIFs.

Rando offers a 7-day free trial with Pro features priced at $4.99/month, $49.99/year, or $109 lifetime. Available now on the Mac App Store and Microsoft Store.
