Common follow-up questions
- Do guests need WhatsApp to open it?
- No. WhatsApp is just how you send the link. It opens in their normal phone browser, and no app is needed.
- Can I change the message?
- Yes. Edit it before sending, or write your own. See what to say when asking guests to upload.
- Will the link preview show the photos?
- The preview shows the album, not the photos inside it. Your album stays private to people you share it with.
- What if someone opens it inside WhatsApp and cannot upload?
- Ask them to choose Open in browser. See why a guest cannot upload photos.
