Guest page, album and live wall
The guest page is where people upload, the album is where they look, and the live wall is what you put on a screen in the room. All 3 sit behind the same code.
The guest page and the album are on from the start. The live wall belongs to the Celebrate and Grand plans and has no on/off switch: it runs wherever you open its address.
The guest page: where uploads happen
This is what a guest sees after scanning. It offers photos, video and a voice recorder, in whatever combination you have allowed, and it asks for nothing before the first upload. It is designed to be finished in under a minute.
It carries your event name, the wording that matches your event type, and your accent colour. What it never carries is a sign-up form.
- Share the guest page. The printed code and the shared link both lead here. This is the only address guests need.
- Open the album to guests. It is public from the start. Switch off “Album link” under Album → “Public”, or add an album password, if you would rather it were not.
- Open the live wall on the screen. Only if you have a screen or projector in the room. There is nothing to switch on: open the wall’s address on that screen.
The album: where everyone looks
The album shows contributions that are ready and not hidden. Guests reach it from the same link, and the page offers it directly after an upload — which is how someone finds their own photo among the rest. It is public from the moment the album exists.
You can close it entirely by switching off “Album link” under Album → “Public”, or set an album password of at least 4 characters that every viewer types once. Both are your switches, not the guest’s.
The live wall: the screen in the room
The live wall fills a screen or projector and brings new contributions up on their own, with no one operating it. Seeing a photo appear is what prompts the next one, which is the whole reason it exists. It belongs to the Celebrate and Grand plans and has no on/off switch: it shows as soon as you open its address, as long as guests can see the album.
It is a display surface, not a control surface. Nothing you do on the wall changes the album.
| Setting | Options | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Display | Slideshow, collage or polaroid | Slideshow |
| Code in the corner | Always, only when idle, or never | Always |
| Caption | Name and time, time only, or none | Name and time |
| Slide interval | Adjustable | 6 seconds |
| Spotlight interval (collage) | Adjustable | 9 seconds |
Leaving the code in the corner turns the wall into a second invitation for anyone who has not scanned yet.
Why it is 1 code and not 3
A guest holds a phone, not a map. Giving them 1 address and letting the page offer the next step is the difference between a code that gets scanned and a code that gets ignored. Everything else is reachable from there.
For you, this also means a reprint is never needed when you change how the album or the wall behaves.
What the review step changes
With review switched on, a contribution goes to a queue instead of straight to the album — and the same applies to the live wall. Nothing reaches a screen in the room until you approve it, which is the point of using it at a public venue.
By default nothing is queued: uploads reach the album and the wall directly. That suits most private parties.
Which of the 3 you actually need
Every album needs the guest page. Almost every host wants the album open, because guests looking at what is there is what makes them add more. The live wall is worth it when there is a screen already in the room and someone will notice it.
A projector in an empty corner adds nothing. A screen behind the bar changes the evening.
Common questions
Do guests need a separate link for the album?
No. The same code leads to the guest page, and the page offers the album from there.
Is the album public by default?
Yes. Switch off “Album link” under Album → “Public”, or put an album password in front of viewing it.
Which plans include the live wall?
Celebrate and Grand. There is nothing to switch on: the wall shows wherever you open its address.
Does the live wall show items awaiting review?
No. With review on, nothing reaches the wall before you approve it.
Can I change the wall settings during the party?
Yes. The wall is a display surface, so changing it affects nothing in the album.

The live wall will not open
Send us the album name and your plan. If “Album link” is off, the wall cannot open either.
