Shared Photo Album for Events Without App Install
Poolr is a web-based shared photo album that lets event guests upload and view photos through a simple link - no app installation required. Guests can contribute photos instantly on any device, and you get a complete, organised collection automatically.
How It Works Without an App
Poolr creates a unique shareable link for your event. You send the link to guests via email, text, or social media. When they tap the link, they land on a mobile-friendly page where they can upload photos directly from their camera roll or take new ones on the spot. No registration, no app store, no friction. All photos sync to your central album in real time, so you see contributions as they arrive.
Perfect for Weddings, Parties, and Conferences
Whether you're hosting a wedding reception, birthday party, corporate event, or community gathering, Poolr removes the barrier that prevents guests from sharing photos. Traditional photo-sharing requires everyone to download an app first - most won't bother. Poolr's link-based approach means participation rates are higher, and you capture candid moments from multiple perspectives without chasing people down for their files after the event.
Organise and Access Photos Later
Every photo uploaded to Poolr is tagged with the uploader's name and timestamp. You can download your complete album as a zip file, search by contributor, and share the final collection with guests. The album stays live for as long as you need it, giving latecomers a chance to add photos days or even weeks after the event.
Mobile-First, Browser-Based
Poolr works on any smartphone, tablet, or computer via a standard web browser. iOS, Android, Windows, Mac - device type doesn't matter. Guests don't need to create an account or remember a password. The experience is optimised for mobile, so uploading is fast and intuitive even on slower connections. This simplicity is why participation on Poolr is consistently higher than traditional app-based approaches.
Privacy and Control
You control who can see and contribute to your album. Set the link to be view-only, upload-only, or both. Decide whether to make the album public, private to invited guests, or password-protected. All photos remain on Poolr's secure servers with automatic backups, so you never lose your event memories.
Start Your Shared Album Free
Poolr offers a free tier to create and manage your first shared photo album with no credit card required. Upgrade to a paid plan if you want unlimited storage, advanced sharing options, or priority support. Most event hosts find the free plan sufficient for single-occasion events. Set up your album in under one minute - create a link, share it, and watch photos roll in.
