What people say
Real reviews, each linked to its source.
“We were already drowning in wedding planning, so the last thing we wanted was another app for guests to download. Eventoly was honestly so easy. We put the QR on the welcome sign and people just scanned it. By the next morning we had over 400 photos and videos, including stuff we never would have seen otherwise.”
“I've tried a bunch of these for clients and most ask guests to download something nobody wants to download. With Eventoly the QR just works. I had a 70-year-old uncle of the groom upload three videos on his own. That sold me.”
“For my 30th I really didn't want to chase everyone for their photos like I always end up doing. The QR code went on the table cards and that was it. A week later I downloaded everything in one zip. Way easier than texting 15 different group chats.”
“Best decision for our wedding hands down. We got over 600 photos from our guests that we never would have seen otherwise. The photographer only captures so much, but our guests caught all the candid moments - my dad crying during the speech, our friends on the dance floor, everything. So worth it!”
“We put the QR codes on each table and within 10 minutes people were uploading. By the end of the night we had hundreds of photos. The best part? No one had to download an app or create an account. My tech-challenged uncle figured it out in seconds.”
“Used this for my wife's 40th surprise party. Had 80 guests and almost everyone uploaded something. She cried looking through all the photos the next day. The slideshow feature was amazing - we had it playing on the TV during the party and everyone loved seeing their photos pop up instantly.”
“Perfect for our baby shower! So easy to set up - literally took 5 minutes. Our guests uploaded the cutest pics and videos throughout the party. Now we have all these precious memories in one place. Already planning to use it again for the christening.”
“Our company holiday party had 200+ employees. Eventoly made it so simple to collect everyone's photos. No more chasing people on WhatsApp groups. Just one QR code and boom - all photos in one album. Our marketing team loved it too for internal comms.”
“I was skeptical at first but wow. We received 847 photos and 52 videos from our guests! The quality is amazing and the unlimited uploads meant no one had to pick and choose what to share. Already recommended to three other brides in my group chat.”
“Celebrated our 25th anniversary and wanted a modern way to collect memories. This was it. Even my 80-year-old mother managed to upload photos without any help. That says everything about how easy it is to use.”
“My son's 1st birthday party was magical and thanks to Eventoly we have photos from every single guest. I was too busy hosting to take many photos myself so this saved us. The download feature made it easy to create his birthday album afterward.”
“Used it for our 20-year high school reunion. People who couldn't make it could still view the photos which was brilliant. We ended up with 400+ photos documenting the whole weekend. Worth every penny and then some.”
“The free tier was perfect for our small baby shower - 20 photos was enough to test it out. We loved it so much we upgraded for the main event. The themes are gorgeous and it matched our party aesthetic perfectly. No brainer really.”
“Our photographer was great but couldn't be everywhere. Eventoly filled in all the gaps. We got photos from the getting ready rooms, the after party, and moments between that professional cameras missed. Some of our favorite shots came from guests!”
“We organize 3-4 company events per year and this has become our go-to solution. Setup takes minutes, everyone can participate without downloading anything, and we get a complete album every time. Their support is incredible too - Julie helped us with a billing question at like 11pm and was so patient and friendly. You can tell they actually care.”
“We used this for our guests traveling into town for our wedding and all of the events throughout the weekend. The results were incredible. Highly recommend.”
“We have so many hilarious and amazingly beautiful pics from our guests throughout the day thanks to POV. It was easy for everyone to use.”
“We are looking at pictures of the best moments of our wedding and seeing all of our people genuinely enjoying their time.”
“This was the best thing we could have added to our wedding. It was very easy and user friendly for our guests.”
“This app made it a breeze to create an event, print customized QR code cards, and see all the photos of the day.”
“We used this for our wedding and loved it. Got hundreds of authentic, fun pictures we could not have gotten any other way.”
“I reached out via text message and had a response from a real human within five minutes on a Sunday morning.”
“It was great to see photos from everyone’s POV from our day and get some pictures before the professional ones were edited.”
