Do Guests Need an Account to Upload?

No! Guests can upload photos without creating an account or signing up for anything. The process is completely frictionless.

How Guest Uploads Work

  1. Guest scans your QR code or opens your upload link
  2. They select photos from their phone
  3. Optionally add their name and a message
  4. Tap upload - done!

No email, no password, no sign-up form. It works directly in their phone's browser.

Optional Information

Guests can choose to add:

  • Name (up to 50 characters) - Helps identify who took the photo
  • Message (up to 200 characters) - A caption or well-wishes

Both are completely optional. Anonymous uploads are totally fine.

No App Required

Guests don't need to:

  • Download any app
  • Create an account
  • Enter their email
  • Remember a password

Everything works in the mobile browser.
