What people say
Real reviews, each linked to its source.
“Purchased an upgraded download package; guests later had upload problems and photos were lost.”
“Appeared to load photos easily, then repeatedly failed to load and crashed when adding photos or videos.”
“Used it for a wedding; uploads stopped and customer service did not resolve the issue.”
“The concept was good, but the app was slow, buggy, and difficult to access photos in.”
“Paid for storage, then guests were reportedly asked to pay to upload photos.”
“We collected over 300 amazing guest photos we would not have seen otherwise!”
“Brilliant. They had not come across the service before and liked being able to see hundreds of guest photos instead of only the few they took.”
“A wedding guest said they were asked by a friend to use the app, found it easy, and enjoyed seeing the other photos too.”
“A couple said poor weather limited professional photos, so they valued seeing guest photos and even bought prints afterwards.”
