QR code best practices

  • A QR code is created automatically; need custom design? Use the QR Code Generator.
  • Print several copies and place them at the entrance, tables and bar/buffet.
  • For TV/projector: open the web app and run the slideshow in full-screen.

Storage & retention

  • 2 GB (about 500 phone photos) free, kept for 6 weeks.
  • Premium: unlimited retention, more storage, guest downloads.
  • Upgrade anytime – see Pricing.

Moderation & privacy

  • Remove uploads or close the event at any time.
  • GDPR-compliant storage; EU servers for EU users.
  • Share a download link after the event so guests can save favorites.

Formats & quality

  • Photos and videos stay in original resolution, no compression.
  • Perfect for photobooks, thank-you cards or social exports.

API & photobooth

Photobooths or custom apps can upload automatically – ideal for weddings, company events or trade shows.

Troubleshooting

  • QR code won’t open? Check connectivity and share the link as fallback.
  • Uploads stuck? Reload the browser/app; retry when on better signal.
  • Storage full? Upgrade to Premium or delete unneeded uploads.
