How QR Code Gallery Sharing Works
QR code sharing is the easiest and most popular way for guests to get their photos. No typing, no forms — just scan and go.
How It Works
- Guest taps the QR Code button on the share screen
- A QR code appears on the iPad screen
- Guest opens their phone camera and scans the code
- Their phone opens a browser link to the online gallery
- Guest can view, download, and share their photos from the gallery

What's in the Gallery?
The gallery link contains the guest's photos from their session — both the original captures and any AI-effected versions. Guests can:
- View all their photos
- Download individual photos or all of them
- Share directly from their phone to social media
Auto-Open QR
Want the QR code to pop up automatically when guests reach the share screen? Enable Auto-Open QR in your settings.
- Go to Settings
- Find Auto-Open QR
- Toggle it on
When enabled, the QR code appears immediately — no need for guests to tap anything. This speeds up the flow significantly.
Why QR Codes Work So Well
- No friction — Guests don't need to type their email or phone number
- Instant — Scan and you're there
- Universal — Every smartphone can scan QR codes
- No setup required — QR sharing works out of the box with no third-party services
Tips
- Make sure the QR code is big enough — It should be easily scannable from a comfortable distance
- Good lighting helps — A bright screen in a dark venue can glare. Adjust screen brightness if needed.
- Tell guests what to do — A small sign saying "Scan to get your photos!" helps at unattended booths
- Internet is required — Both the booth (to upload) and the guest's phone (to access the gallery) need internet
What's Next?
- Setting Up SMS Sharing — Send gallery links directly to guests' phones via text
- Setting Up Email Sharing — Deliver gallery links to guests' inboxes
