Photo and video album for events
Create the album, leave the QR code on the tables, and everything your people shoot lands in one place. Your guests download no app and create no account: they scan and they upload.
Live
Three steps
Your guests never have to learn Fotara. They scan, they upload, they get back to the party.
23
Sign in with Google, Apple or a code sent to your email — no passwords, no card — and the QR code is ready that same second. The album is yours, and stays yours even if you change phones.
23A
You get a code to print and leave on the tables, and a link for the group chat. Whoever scans it is in.
24
Every photo and video shows up in the album as it happens. You decide what stays — hide or delete anything.
Where it works
Which is, essentially, every event. These are the ones that come up most.
No friction
They install nothing, they create no accounts, and they never have to work out how it runs. They scan and they upload. You decide what stays.
Photos and video
From the gallery or shot on the spot, with separate buttons, so nobody has to retake a photo they already have. Videos up to 30 seconds.
Likes
Anonymous, one per person. They let the best shots surface on their own, without anyone having to pick them.
Full download
The whole album in one file, at high resolution. It is yours from day one.
Host controls
Hide or delete any photo or video, whenever you want. Whoever uploaded something can remove it too.
Nobody downloads anything
The album opens in the browser the phone already has. No App Store, no updates, no storage taken up.
Nobody can comment
There is no comment box under photos of your family. Nothing to moderate, and nothing you have to keep deleting.
Nobody has to ration photos
We don’t count them. Let everyone upload as many as they like; you take them all at high resolution.
Questions
No. They scan the QR code and the album opens in the phone’s browser, the same on iPhone and Android. There is nothing to install.
Your guests never do. You sign in once with Google, Apple or a code sent to your email — no password, one tap. That is what makes the album truly yours and lets you open it from any phone, even if you lose the one you created it on.
Yes — photos and video, from the gallery or recorded on the spot with the album’s camera.
Only whoever has the album’s QR code or link. There is no search, there are no public profiles, and albums are not indexed by Google.
Yes. As the host you can hide or delete any photo or video at any time. Whoever uploaded it can remove it too.
One button. It builds a single file with the complete album at high resolution, ready to store wherever you want. Photos are optimised as they upload so they make it through even on bad venue wifi, and they are still more than good enough to print.
Creating an album and receiving photos is free — no card and no account. Large events will have a paid plan, and you’ll know before you need it, never in the middle of the party.
The album stays open after the event so everyone can download their own. If it ever has to be archived, we email you well in advance.
Because these are photos of your people, often of children. A comment space there needs moderation nobody can sustain properly, so we would rather not have it.
