Do photos appear automatically?

Yes, as guests upload them. If approval is on they appear once you approve. See [approving photos](/help/manage-your-gallery/approve-photos-before-gallery).

Does it need a good connection?

Yes, since it pulls new photos as they arrive. A wired connection is more dependable than venue wifi.

Can a co-host run it?

Yes. See [inviting a co-host](/help/manage-your-gallery/invite-a-cohost).

Can I control what appears?

Switch on approval beforehand if you want to review photos before they reach the screen.

Q: How do I show a live slideshow at my event?

Open Photo Wall from the toolbar on Manage or the gallery. It gives you a slideshow view and a URL you can open on any screen, and new photos appear as guests upload them. It works on anything with a browser: a laptop plugged into a TV, a smart TV, or a projector.
