Collect and share event photos from guests

How does it work?

For your guests it takes just two steps, and that is exactly what the video on the left shows. For you as the host it takes three.

For your guests

1

Scan the QR code

Just point the phone camera at the place card. The album opens instantly: in the app if installed, otherwise as a preview or directly in the browser, depending on what you set as the event creator.

2

Select photos and upload

One tap on Upload, select pictures, done. They appear in the gallery right away.

For you as the host

1

Create your event

This is where you need a free account. You set the title and date, choose a custom or random link and assign the permissions. Optionally, every upload must be approved by you first.

2

Share the QR code

Print it on place cards or send the link. Ready-made templates are included.

3

Keep the gallery

All your guests' photos end up together in your event. Save them as a ZIP or automatically to Google Drive, and show the best moments as a slideshow.

Prefer step by step? The tutorial explains every step in detail, from creating the event and managing access to the ZIP download.

Try it on a real demo event

Two public sample albums, nothing you need to set up. You see them exactly as your guests will see them later.

Photos from the public demo wedding album

Wedding

A gallery with albums for the ceremony and the photo booth, just as your guests see it.

Photos from the public demo birthday album

Birthday

A 40th in the garden: all guest photos in one shared album.

Both QR codes are real: scan them with your phone and you are in the album.

Uploading is deliberately disabled in the demo albums, which is why the upload button in the bottom right corner is missing there. For your own event you decide who can view, upload and download.

What users say

Real events, real albums – guests share via QR code without scattered chats.

Wedding

„It's a great app and the customer service is one of the best I've ever experienced! Highly recommend for any bride/groom to use for their big day!“

Family gathering

„When you have an open house gathering and all your family members are hosting, topping up food/ drinks etc, you dont have time to take photos of the guests who attended. With eventpics, just print a bunch of QR codes, scatter them all over the house and just watch your album filled up with pics of happy, well fed guests.“

Support

„This app worked well for gathering pics from 2 events. The only downside is that once uploaded you can't see who uploaded them. We had a small issue logging on initially but support was quick and solved. I judge a site by its service and they did well!“

Available on all platforms

Guests and hosts simply use the device they already have with them: iPhone, Android or the browser on a laptop.

iOS App

The native app for iPhone and iPad. Uploads in original quality keep running in the background, even when guests upload many photos at once.

Apple App Store Button

Android App

The same app with the same feature set for all Android devices, from phones to tablets.

Google Play Store Button

Web App

Runs in any browser, on the phone as well as on the laptop. Guests who don't have the app land here automatically when they scan the QR code.

Web App Button

What the app adds over the browser

You stay in control

Who can join, who sees what and what ends up in the gallery. You decide, for every event.

🔗

Random link or custom link

By default your event gets a random link that is practically impossible to guess. If you like, it gets a readable custom link instead, such as event.pics/wedding, easy to remember for posters, invitations and social media. Neither variant is listed anywhere or indexed by Google. A custom link is, however, easier to guess than a random one.

👥

Access codes with their own permissions

When creating the event you set up an access and decide whether visitors can view, upload and download. Downloading always requires viewing. You can create several accesses, for example one for the family including a family album and one for all other guests. For most celebrations a single access is enough.

✅

Approval before publishing

Optionally, every photo and video must be approved by an admin before it appears in the gallery. If you like, you get a push notification as soon as something is waiting. Uploaders see their own picture immediately, marked as “Not reviewed yet”. Ideal for larger celebrations and company events, when you want to know what lands in the gallery before everyone sees it.

Multiple admins possible: You can make other people admins who approve uploads and manage the event. The creator keeps all rights and is the only one who can delete the event.

Everything included

WhatsApp group, cloud folder or EventPics?

The three ways guest photos come together today. The difference is less about storing them and more about what you can do with them afterwards.
