Wedding photo sharing app with nothing to install
Unposed is a wedding photo sharing app where guests scan a sign and shoot with their own phones. No app, no account, full resolution, one price.
The short answer
Unposed is a wedding photo sharing app built around a printed QR code sign. A guest scans it and a camera opens on their phone, with nothing to install and no account. Every photo goes into one gallery that opens for everyone at the time you pick, at full resolution. It's free for up to 10 guests and $49.99 for any number.
A wedding photo sharing app collects the photos your guests take into one place, so you see the day from every table. Unposed does it with a sign. You print it, a guest scans it, and a camera opens on their phone. Their shots upload to your gallery, and nobody installs an app or makes an account.
I make Unposed on my own, so this page is about how it works and what it costs. For the free ways to collect photos, like a Google Photos album, see how to set up a QR code for wedding photos.
What a wedding photo sharing app has to get right
A couple asking on r/wedding for the best way to collect guest photos wrote that ideally they "would not want them to have to download anything", and that it should be easy to use. Three things decide whether an app manages that:
- What a guest has to do at the table before the first photo.
- Whether every photo arrives, including the ones taken where the venue has no signal.
- What you get afterwards: one gallery, at full size, without a watermark.
How Unposed works at a wedding
- You make the event in the Unposed iPhone app and choose when the gallery opens, for example at nine the next morning.
- You print the sign the app makes and put one on every table.
- A guest scans the sign and a camera opens. A phone that won't scan can type the six-character event code instead.
- Each guest gets a roll of 36 shots and a counter, like a disposable camera. When you make the event you can choose 12, 24 or 50 shots instead, or no limit.
- At the time you chose, the gallery opens for every guest at once.
Nothing for guests to install
On an iPhone the sign opens an App Clip, a small part of the Unposed app that runs without installing. On Android and every other phone it opens in the browser. Neither asks for an account or a password.
That matters at a US wedding, because 46% of US mobile web traffic came from Android phones in September 2026. An app that only works well on one kind of phone leaves out roughly half of your guests.
Photos that arrive without signal
Barns, vineyards and basements can have no reception at all. Unposed saves every shot on the guest's phone first and uploads it when the signal comes back, so a photo taken in a cellar with no bars still reaches your gallery. Each shot shows its state, waiting, uploading or safe, so a guest can see that nothing was lost.
One gallery that opens at the reveal
Until the reveal, each guest sees only their own shots. You see every photo as it comes in, and you can hide any photo before anyone else sees it.
At the reveal, at the end of the night, the next morning or any time you set, the whole gallery opens for everyone. Every photo is the original at full resolution, with no watermark, and a guest can save the whole gallery to their phone's Photos app in one go.
What it costs
You pay once per event, with no subscription, and every price includes every feature.
| Plan | Guests | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Free | Up to 10 | $0 |
| Party | Up to 25 | $4.99 |
| Celebration | Up to 75 | $19.99 |
| Wedding pass | Any number | $49.99 |
A guest counts only when they take their first photo, so a guest who scans the sign and never shoots costs you nothing. If more guests come than your plan covers, you can upgrade during the event and pay the difference.
Other ways to share wedding photos
A Google Photos or iCloud shared album costs nothing if you already pay for storage, and it can work well for a small wedding. Google Photos usually asks guests to sign in before they can add photos, and an iCloud shared album holds at most 100 people. The QR code guide compares them with a Dropbox file request, checked against each company's help pages.
If you'd like the photos to feel like film, with a set number of shots per guest and a reveal, read about the disposable camera app for weddings. It's the same Unposed camera, explained from that side. And for the photos guests post on Instagram, make a hashtag with the free wedding hashtag generator.
Questions
Do guests need to download an app?
No. On an iPhone the sign opens an App Clip, which runs without installing, and on Android it opens in the browser. Guests don't make an account either.
Does it work for guests with Android phones?
Yes. Android guests scan the sign with the Camera app, and the Unposed camera opens in the browser. They get the same roll as iPhone guests.
What happens to photos taken where there's no signal?
Unposed saves each photo on the guest's phone first and uploads it when the phone gets signal again. The guest can see each shot's state while it waits.
Can I hide a photo before everyone sees it?
Yes. Before the reveal you see every photo as it arrives, and you can hide any of them. Hidden photos stay out of the gallery your guests see.
Do I need an iPhone to host?
Yes. You make and run the event in the Unposed iPhone app, which needs iOS 17 or later. Your guests can use any phone.
Is Unposed only for weddings?
No. It works the same way for a birthday, a bachelorette party, a baby shower or a company party. Pick the plan for the number of guests who'll take photos.
