Wedding photo sharing without app download
Poolr by MRVL is a guest photo collection app that lets every wedding guest share photos instantly by scanning a QR code, with no app download, no account signup, and no friction. The host generates the code, guests tap it on their phone and upload directly from their browser.
How it works for weddings
You create a Poolr event and generate a unique QR code. Print it on table cards, display it on screens, or text the link to guests. Each guest scans once, picks their photos from their phone, and they upload straight to your shared album in full resolution. No one needs to download anything or create an account. As of June 2026, thousands of couples have used Poolr to gather photos from every angle during their day. All photos land in one searchable, shareable gallery that you keep forever.
Full-resolution photos, one place
Poolr collects every guest's photos in full quality, not compressed versions. The Free tier holds 30 photos and lasts 7 days, perfect for testing. The Moment tier (£8.99) holds 200 photos and is ideal for smaller weddings. For most couples, the Occasion tier (£19.99) offers unlimited photos that never expire, plus a live photo wall display screen at your reception, an audio guestbook for guest messages, custom event frames that overlay on every photo, and automatic AI photobook generation for print.
Live photo wall at your reception
The Moment and Occasion tiers unlock a live photo wall. Connect any screen in your venue - a TV, projector, or iPad - to display guest photos in real time as they upload. Guests watch their own photos appear instantly. You moderate the queue to filter any images you'd rather not display, and the wall refreshes automatically. It turns your wedding into a shared experience rather than isolated phone-scrolling.
Extras that set it apart
Occasion and higher tiers include an audio guestbook where guests can record voice messages instead of writing in a book. The Forever tier (£34.99) adds face recognition so Poolr automatically tags photos by who appears in them, plus an AI highlight reel that surfaces your best shots. All plans let you bulk download all photos as a ZIP file, and guests can upload video clips too if they want.
Beyond single events
If you're a wedding planner, venue, or photographer offering shared albums as a service to clients, the Pro Organiser plan (£9.99/month or £89.99/year) lets you manage multiple events under one account with branded galleries and client billing. Teams (£79/month or £699/year) extends this for large event companies running dozens of weddings.
Why no app download matters
Most of your guests already have full phone storage on their wedding day. Asking them to download yet another app adds friction at a moment when they should be enjoying themselves. Poolr's browser upload means they tap the QR code and start uploading in two steps. No install, no login, no app icon cluttering their phone. They finish uploading and go back to celebrating.

Frequently asked questions
Do wedding guests need to download Poolr?
No. Guests scan the QR code, open it in their phone's web browser, and upload photos directly from there. The Poolr app is only for the host to manage the event and view photos later.
Can I keep the wedding photos forever?
Yes. The Free and Moment tiers have time limits, but the Occasion tier (£19.99) and higher keep your photos permanently. You own them and can download them anytime as a full-resolution ZIP file.
How many photos can Poolr store?
The Free tier holds 30 photos, Moment holds 200, and Occasion and Forever hold unlimited photos.
Can guests upload videos too?
Yes. Moment tier and above allow guests to upload video clips alongside photos. They're stored and shared in the same gallery.
How do I display photos during the reception?
Moment tier and higher unlock a live photo wall. Plug any screen or projector into the same Wi-Fi, load your Poolr event on it, and guest photos appear live as they upload. You can moderate which photos display.
What if I'm a photographer offering this to clients?
The Pro Organiser plan (£9.99/month) lets you manage multiple weddings, brand the galleries with your own logo, and white-label the service. Larger agencies can use the Teams plan.
