From gallery to poster
Snapeen describes a QR album, live slideshow and tools for making posters and collages. OwnPix collects guest photos and videos in an album; creating a poster is a separate task.
Which should you choose?
Choose OwnPix if you want a dedicated photo and video album with a QR code and an optional reveal. Guests can add their moments from a browser.
Choose Snapeen if its gallery and print-style options fit your event. Check upload caps and gallery access on the chosen plan.
Before sending the invitation
| Check | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Upload window | Guests need time to add their photos |
| Album access | Know when to return and download a copy |
| Sharing | A link can be forwarded; tell guests who can see the gallery |
Test the QR code on another phone. In OwnPix, anyone with the event link can view the gallery once it is available.
