Before you choose

What to check before choosing a photo sharing service

Do guests need an app?

No. Guests scan your QR code and upload in their phone browser, with no app and no account.

Can guests upload video?

Yes, on Gold and Custom, as clips of up to 2 minutes. Bronze and Silver are for photos only.

Are photos full quality?

Yes. You receive the full-quality originals, not the compressed versions a messaging app would send.

How long are photos kept, and can I download them?

Your gallery is available for 12 months on every plan, and you can download everything as one ZIP.

Can I control what appears?

Yes. You can remove anything instantly on every plan. Gold also adds a content filter.

Is there a live slideshow?

Yes. The Live Gallery runs on any big screen on every plan, and photos appear as guests upload them.

Is it a subscription?

No. You pay once, from £20. If you're not happy, you can ask for a full refund before your event date.

Can't find what you need? Get in touch.

Do colleagues need an app?

No. Everyone scans the QR code and uploads directly in their browser — no app, no sign-up needed.

Can remote colleagues contribute?

Is this a good retirement gift idea?

Absolutely. A shared gallery of career photos, party shots and video messages is a meaningful, lasting keepsake.

Who owns the photos?

You do. You and your guests keep ownership of what you upload. We only use it to run the service for your event.

Can guests see each other's photos?

Yes, that's the point of a shared gallery: guests with your QR code or link can view what others have uploaded. You can remove anything you don't want shown.

Can I remove a photo?

Yes. You can remove any photo or video instantly from your dashboard, on every plan. Gold and Custom also screen uploads for explicit images.

What happens after 12 months?

Your gallery stays available for 12 months on every plan. We email you before it's deleted, so download everything as one ZIP before then.

Is QRPix GDPR compliant?

QRPix is based in the UK and handles personal data under UK GDPR. You can read how in our privacy policy.
