What guests do to join
Wedshoots’ help guide tells guests to download its app and select the guest option. OwnPix opens in a browser from a QR code or link, so guests do not need to install an app.
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 WedShoots if your group is comfortable installing an app. Check app availability for your guests and how they receive the album code.
What guests do
WedShoots’ support instructions ask guests to download the app and join the album. That can work well when your guests are happy to install it.
OwnPix guests open the event link in their browser. Test either flow with a family member before printing invitations, especially if guests use different phones or languages.
