Built for guests who'd rather not try

Everyone's photos.
One gallery.
Before the night is over.

Guests scan a code, type their name, and land in a shared gallery — no app, no account, no password. Built for phones, low light, and people who are having too good a time to read instructions.

How it works

Three steps, no reading required.

Scan or type six digits

A QR code on the table card, or a six-digit numeric code for anyone who'd rather type. Digits only, on purpose — it's the one format that brings up a phone's big number pad instead of the full keyboard.

Type a name. That's it.

No app to install, no account, no password. A guest types their name and lands straight in the gallery — ten seconds, one field.

See everyone's photos, add your own

The gallery is the destination, not a step on the way to a camera. Watching it fill up with everyone else's shots is what makes people add their own.

What's actually in it

Not a feature list for its own sake — the parts that come up mid-event.

See all features

Disposable camera mode

Hide photos until the host reveals them, like waiting for film to develop.

Sub-galleries

Split a gallery into named sections — the speeches, the dancefloor, the morning after.

Host moderation

Block a guest, remove a photo, hide the whole gallery — findable in seconds, mid-party.

A slideshow for the venue

Point a projector at /tv and let the gallery play on a screen all night.

Per-event themes

Colour, accent, heading font and hero image, from eleven presets or a blank slate.

Photos and video

Guests add both. Old phones, low light, one bar of signal — that's the actual design target.

"No app, no account — a six-digit code and a phone browser get a guest to the gallery in one step."

Set it up before the invitations go out.

Pick a theme, print the code, and the gallery is ready before your first guest arrives.
