What people say
Real reviews, each linked to its source.
“Everything was very easy to use.”
“This was amazing. We added the qr code to multiple things around the wedding. Cards, signs, and menus. It made it very easy to get all of the photos people took of our wedding”
“We are very disappointed as the app did not allow most of our guests to upload their photos so they had to share via different apps.”
“Straightforward set up, easy access for admin and guests. Easy to view and download photos. QR codes provided for upload. Very positive experience.”
“The ease of use for guests was a welcomed convenience. The ability to have an aggregate of each person's perspective of my event shared in one place made photo sharing extremely easy and convenient.”
“We used this service for a funeral for the family to gather photos to be shown at the service. It was easy to use and easy to share.”
“I purchased their $45 “upgraded” download package, which was a complete waste of money and time.”
“That said, great idea, needs some improvement.”
“Used the app for my wedding and loaded 80% of my photos. System stopped loading photos. Customer service kept saying for a whole month that they were working on the problem.”
“Unfortunately, despite paying for the full premium experience the application appears to be riddled with bugs. It's often slow and I cannot access all the photos”
