TetherQR.

At meet-and-greets, everyone asks the same thing: when do I get my photo? With this, they get it on their phone while they're still at the event.

How it works

Shoot, scan, done.

  1. Shoot tethered like normal. The camera saves to the laptop and TetherQR watches that folder.
  2. Type the guest's name. A big QR code pops up on a second screen for them to scan.
  3. Their page fills up as you shoot. They can scan before the photos even exist. Only their own photos show up.
  4. Gone after a week. Photos stay online for 7 days, then delete themselves.

Made for real event days

Things go wrong. It copes.

Bad venue wifi

Uploads wait in a queue that survives dropouts, crashes and even a power cut. Delivery slows down, nothing gets lost.

A backup on the laptop

Every photo is also filed into a folder with the guest's name, so you can always find someone's set.

Quick fixes

Forgot to type the next name? Move the last few photos to the right guest in a couple of taps.

Group mode

For sessions run in fixed groups, print QR slips days before. Pick the group on stage and their photos go to their page.

Double-click to run

Packaged for Windows and Mac, so whoever's operating doesn't need to install anything.

Private by default

No emails or phone numbers collected. Just a name for the day, and everything is deleted afterwards.
