Guest participation

Help your guests share their photos.

A visible QR code and a short explanation give guests a place to add their photos. They can join during the event or open the same link when they get home.

Here is how sharing works when the connection slows down or an upload is interrupted.

When guests upload photos

The network drops mid-upload

Files upload in parts. If the connection drops, Medley can resume from the parts already received. Keep the originals on your phone until the upload is complete.

Several guests uploading together

Files go directly to storage. Upload speed depends on the venue’s connection and the size of each file.

Playing videos on other devices

Medley prepares a browser-friendly version after upload. This can take some time. The original stays available in the complete album download.

Nothing for guests to install

The link opens the album in a browser. Guests enter a first name and choose their files. The WedShoots comparison explains the differences with a mobile app.

Viewing the album on a phone

An album you can try
Try the public example album on your phone to see how to browse and add photos.
Space reserved for each photo

The gallery reserves room for thumbnails before they load, reducing layout movement while you browse.

Images sized for the screen

The gallery uses lighter versions sized for the display. Original files remain available in the complete album download.

Video quality follows the connection

The player adjusts video quality to the available connection. Internet access is still needed; try Wi-Fi or return later if reception is poor.

Before guests arrive

  1. Try it on your phone

    Try the our example album on your phone to see how to browse and add photos.
  2. Check the venue’s connection

    Open the album at the venue and upload a photo. If reception is poor, share the link so guests can also contribute from home.
  3. Explain where to share

    Put the QR code on the tables and mention the album during the event. Tell guests they can add photos and see everyone else’s.

Frequently asked questions

Do my guests have to install an app?
No. The link or QR code opens the album in their phone’s browser.
Do my guests have to create an account?
No. Guests enter a first name to sign their contributions. Only the organiser needs an account to manage the album.
What if the venue has terrible reception?
Uploading needs an internet connection. Try Wi-Fi or mobile data, or add files after the event using the same link. The gallery uses lighter images to reduce loading.
What happens if a guest's upload is interrupted?
Medley can resume the parts already received. Reopen the upload on the same device and follow the on-screen instructions. Keep your originals until the upload is complete.
Does it work on an old phone?
Compatibility depends on the browser and its version, especially for guest book recording. Try the example album on your device before the event.
How long does it take a guest to upload a photo?
Guests scan, enter a name and choose their files. Upload time depends on file size and connection speed. They can continue browsing while files upload.
Can we try it before the event?
Yes. The example album is open without an account. You can browse and try uploading, then test your own album before sharing it with guests. Read more: the example album
