QR Code Photo Album Creation Tool for Events
Poolr is a QR code photo collection app that lets event hosts gather every guest's photos into one shared album. Guests scan a QR code on their phone, upload photos straight from the browser, and photos appear instantly in a full-resolution shared gallery, no app download or account required.
How QR Code Photo Sharing Works with Poolr
When you create an event in Poolr, you generate a unique QR code. Print it, display it on a screen, or text it to guests. Each guest scans the code with their phone camera, opens the browser-based upload interface, and selects photos from their library. Photos upload in full resolution and appear live in your shared album. There is no friction, no login step, no friction - guests finish in under 10 seconds per photo. As of June 2026, thousands of event hosts use Poolr to collect photos from weddings, birthday parties, corporate gatherings, and church events without asking guests to email images or use a separate app.
Full-Resolution Gallery and Instant Organisation
Every photo uploaded to Poolr stays in full resolution. Unlike most social sharing platforms, Poolr preserves quality. The shared album organises photos automatically by upload time, so newer images appear at the top. If you choose the Occasion tier or higher, you can enable Reveal mode for a disposable-camera effect, where guests see photos only after the event ends. You can also add custom event frames that guests apply to their uploads before submission, keeping your brand or event theme consistent across the gallery.
Live Photo Wall and Event Display
For event hosts who want to amplify the moment, Poolr's live photo wall projects incoming guest photos on a large display screen in real time. As guests upload, new images appear on the venue screen, creating a shared visual experience. This feature is available on the Occasion+ tier and above. The live wall keeps the gathering energy high and encourages more guests to contribute. Corporate teams, wedding receptions, and church events all use this to celebrate community participation.

Poolr offers a free tier that collects up to 30 photos and keeps them for 7 days, perfect for small gatherings or testing. The Moment tier is £8.99 per event for 200 photos. Occasion is £19.99 for unlimited photos that never expire. Forever tier is £34.99 and includes 2 years of retention, AI face recognition, and highlight reel generation.

Beyond the QR Code Photo Album
Poolr does more than collect photos. Higher tiers unlock an audio guestbook so guests record voice messages, automated photobook generation that turns your gallery into a printed keepsake, face recognition to highlight key moments and people, and bulk ZIP download so you can back up every photo at once. Guest video uploads are also available on select tiers. If you run outdoor or travel content, the Adventure Creator tier at £4.99 per month is built for creators who want to share photos and video from multiple trips in a branded way.
Who Uses Poolr
Poolr was built for event hosts: couples planning weddings, church administrators running services, birthday party organisers, corporate event managers, schools, and sports teams. Professional event planners and wedding photographers also use Poolr to offer shared photo albums as part of their service. The no-app, no-account design means guests from ages 8 to 80 can upload without friction. Every guest photo gets collected in one place automatically, which saves hosts hours of chasing emails and messaging platforms after the event ends.
