In their own words
EventPics
EventPics collects guests’ event photos and videos in a shared album reached by QR code or link. Guests can upload through a browser or app without creating accounts, and files can be downloaded in their original quality. Hosts can set separate viewing, upload, and download permissions, and choose to approve uploads before they appear in the gallery. New uploads can flow into a live slideshow shown in a browser on a TV or projector. The free plan includes 2 GB of storage, unlimited guests, automatic Google Drive backup, a REST API, and a Folder Uploader for photo booths and photographers. Free events expire after six weeks if started immediately, or four weeks after a planned event date; expired events have a seven-day recovery period. Premium starts at €4.99 per month for 10 GB, with larger storage plans listed. EventPics is available on Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, web, and through an API. It is aimed at weddings, birthdays, company parties, family celebrations, group trips, festivals, and other events.
