Built for birthdays

Why birthday photos always disappear

  • You always say 'send me the photos' and never get them
  • Group chat photo dumps die in the camera roll
  • The best shots are scattered across 8 phones you'll never see
  • Shared albums are too much friction for casual guests

What you get

Tuned for birthdays in London

  • Built for the cake-cutting

    Guests can shoot the candle moment from every angle, all into one shared roll you'll actually look at later.

  • Works for kids' parties and milestone bashes

    Same flow whether it's a 6th birthday at a trampoline park or a 50th at a restaurant. Hosts who used disposable cameras finally have a digital version that works.

  • Free for up to 10 guests

    Most small birthdays stay on the free tier forever. Pay once only when the guest list goes bigger.

  • Photos that won't expire in your camera roll

    Your gallery stays put long after the party ends. Pull it up next year for a throwback or hand-pick prints for the wall.

Setup tips

Setup tips for a great party galleryLondon

  1. 1

    Drop the QR on the favors table

    Or tape it to the cake stand. Guests scan when they're already standing there, not when you remind them later.

  2. 2

    Skip the per-guest limit for short parties

    Under 3 hours, a generous shot allowance works better than a tight one — there's no time for spam.

  3. 3

    Reveal the gallery during cake

    Live shared gallery while everyone's still in the room beats sending a link two days later that nobody opens.

  4. 4

    Mention privacy on the QR card

    UK guests appreciate a one-line note that uploads are private until the host reveals the gallery — it raises participation noticeably.
