One QR from golden hour to after midnight
Guests keep shooting stills through dinner, countdown, and the last song. No guest video, no extra app.
New Year's Eve guest camera
Midnight stills you can actually download in January.
Countdown parties in New York, London, Sydney, and Toronto all have the same problem: the best photos stay on someone else's phone. PicShots is photos only. Free for 10 guests (5 shots each). Larger events pay a one-time fee by guest count. Hosts download all photos as a ZIP.
Built for New Year's Eve parties
Why NYE photos disappear
- Midnight is chaos — nobody is collecting files
- Stories expire before you sober up enough to save them
- Group chats compress every sparkler photo to mush
- You wanted one ZIP, not 40 AirDrops at 1 a.m.

Put it on the invite so people scan on arrival, not during the countdown.

NYE runs late. Paid tiers include more shots per guest than the free 5-shot plan.
3 Download the ZIP on 1 January
Reveal once, send the gallery link, and keep a local backup.
FAQ
Common questions
Is PicShots photos only?
Yes. Guests shoot stills into your shared gallery. There is no guest video upload. Hosts download all photos as a ZIP.
What does the free plan include?
Free for 10 guests, 5 shots each. Larger events pay a one-time fee by guest count ($16 (up to 50 guests), $32 (up to 100 guests), $40 (up to 150 guests), $65 (up to 250 guests)) — not a subscription.
Do guests need an app?
No. They scan a QR or open the link, type a name, and shoot in the mobile browser. Only the host needs a PicShots account.
Does this work in the US, UK, Australia, and Canada?
Yes. PicShots is built for hosts worldwide. Paid plans are priced in USD. Guests join from any phone with a browser.
Is there a New Year discount?
HOLIDAY20 is 20% off paid plans from 15 November through 5 January. The code is shown on this page only during that window.
Will it work with weak venue signal?
Uploads need a network connection. Place the QR near Wi-Fi, and guests can retry if a shot fails in the crush at midnight.
