Questions
Everything hosts ask us.
How do guests actually share their photos?
They don't have to — that's the point. Guests scan the QR code on the table card or invite, the camera opens in their browser, and every shot they take lands straight in the event's shared roll. There is nothing to upload, forward, or remember afterwards.
Do guests need to install an app or create an account?
No. PicBunch runs entirely in the browser — Safari, Chrome, or the browser inside WhatsApp and LINE. Scanning the code is the whole onboarding, which is why grandparents and eight-year-olds both manage it.
How do guests get the photos afterwards?
When the album reveals, every participant receives the album link on WhatsApp or LINE, and it also opens right on their phone. Guests who left early get it too — the album finds them, not the other way round.
We have both iPhone and Android guests. Does that matter?
Not at all. iCloud shared albums lose Android guests and their invites famously fail to arrive; group chats compress everything. PicBunch is just a private web page, so every phone shoots and every phone receives the same full-quality album.
The venue's signal is terrible. Will we lose photos?
No. Every shot is saved to the guest's phone first, then uploaded and verified when the connection allows. A basement banquet hall costs you nothing.
Can we control which photos end up in the album?
Yes. The host's control room shows every shot before the reveal — hide anything you'd rather not keep. You also set how many shots each guest gets, which keeps the roll intentional.
How is this different from renting a photo booth?
A photo booth is one corner of the room with a queue, and the prints leave with whoever grabbed them. PicBunch turns the whole room into the booth — every table, the dance floor, the lift lobby — for a fraction of the rental fee, and the album reaches every guest.
How is it different from disposable cameras on the tables?
Same ritual, none of the logistics: no cameras to buy, collect, and develop, no film that runs out before dessert, no waiting a week for scans. Shots stay sealed until the reveal, so you keep the surprise — and everyone gets the album, not just whoever kept the prints.
How long does the album stay up, and what does it cost?
You pay per event, not per month: Starter (HK$88 / NT$360) keeps the album 30 days, Signature (HK$188 / NT$760) 90 days, Studio (HK$388 / NT$1,560) a full year. Guests can download their favourites before it closes.
Who can see the album?
Only people with the event link — it's never public and never a social feed. You can archive or delete the whole event at any time, and everything is removed with it.
