Conferences, summits, and trade shows are too big for one photographer. The keynote happens at the same time as the breakout sessions. The networking happens in the hallway. The best brand moments happen at the booths and the after-party. PartyCam turns every attendee's phone into a contributor — and gives the organizer one moderated album they can clip into next year's marketing.

FAQ
Common questions
No. Guests scan the QR code and the PartyCam camera opens right in their phone's browser — iPhone or Android, no install, no account, no sign-in. The app is optional: it adds video, a nudge when the album is ready, and your name on your photos. Hosts don't need it to get started either — you can create your event and pay right here on the web.
You create the event — here on the web or in the app — then print or display the generated QR code at your venue, and guests scan it with their phone camera. The camera opens in their browser, they shoot, and every photo lands in your shared album. You can download them all afterward.
No. Pricing is a one-time purchase per event — no recurring subscription. Pick the tier that matches your guest count and photo needs.
Yes, at any time. Photos appear in the album as they're taken; you can remove any photo in a tap and pause uploads mid-event, and any guest can report a photo, which hides it until you decide. If you'd rather nothing explicit ever appears, turn on Block NSFW photos when you create the event and it's removed automatically.
Yes. TV mode is a live photo wall for a screen in the room: open your event's TV link on a laptop, press Start the show, and mirror it to the TV with AirPlay, a Chromecast or an HDMI cable - or type the link into a smart TV's own browser. New photos appear within seconds, with the QR code beside them so guests can join from their seats, and the wall shows only what your guests are already allowed to see. It's included with The Works plan, and the link is in the email you get when you create your event. Step-by-step instructions for Mac, Windows and smart TVs are on our TV mode page.
You can download all photos at full resolution, and there's no countdown to do it. We don't auto-delete albums or expire them on a timer — your album stays up until you remove it.
Yes, and guests get the same thing on both: scan the QR, the camera opens in the browser, shoot. PartyCam is also on the App Store and Google Play if you'd rather use the app — that's where video recording lives.
Yes, with one thing to plan for: guests need a bar of signal at the moment they scan, because the link has to open before the camera can - so put the QR code where the signal is best, or share the link with guests before they arrive. After that, shooting needs no connection: in the app every photo is saved on the phone first, and anything still waiting uploads on its own - in the background on Android as soon as the phone has a connection, and the next time the app is opened on iPhone. Guests shooting in the browser should keep the camera page open until their photos show as sent - it re-sends them when the phone comes back online, but closing or reloading the tab loses anything that hasn't uploaded yet. Videos go through the same queue but are far larger than photos, so on a weak connection they land later.
Photos taken or uploaded from the browser are anonymous. Browser guests are never asked to sign in or give a name, so their shots appear under an automatic label like Guest-7K4M2 instead of a person's name. If you want names on photos, guests need to use the PartyCam app and sign in there.
Yes, and it's worth knowing before you pick your tier. Your guest limit counts joins, not people. A guest who shoots in the browser and then switches to the PartyCam app joins twice and uses two spots — and the same happens if someone joins from a second phone or clears their browser data and comes back. Spots can't be freed up once used, so round your guest count up and tell guests to pick one — browser or app — and stay there.
Shared cloud albums require every guest to have the same provider, sign in, and manually upload. PartyCam works for any guest with any phone, with no account needed — and it captures photos at the moment they're taken, not after the fact.
An option you turn on when you create an event. Every photo is checked automatically as it's uploaded, and any photo that looks sexually explicit is removed from the album on the spot. Photos only: videos are not screened. It's off by default, it doesn't block swimwear or party outfits, and it's included on every tier, free events too. If it ever gets one wrong, you can put the photo back from your album.
Guests never need an account, and their photos carry a random tag rather than a name. The album belongs to the host: remove any photo, pause uploads, delete the whole event, or download everything at full resolution. Photos are used to run your album, including the optional NSFW check, and never for advertising.
