I'm looking to set up a way for my siblings and I to share photos with my elderly parents. My first thought was a shared flickr account - but I found that the interface had too many tiny clickable icons, and the photo thumbnails were also small. Parents are old, and have no built-in conception of the mouse as an input device, or tabs / folders / links / etc. as metaphors. But my dad successfully navigates the "smart" radio/cd changer in his 2015 model car, so I believe I can train him to wake up the computer, launch an app, and click on pictures. Parameters below... Parameters:
1) simple viewing interface requiring no menu navigation, etc. Just pictures with captions. Defaulting to newest-first order is ideal.
2) some sort of phone app which multiple people can use to contribute. (email is o.k., too)
3) does not require photos to be accessible to the public, or mined by google.
4) parents' computer is an aging imac.
5) I hate Facebook.
