### 4/5 — First try for myself

*2026-07-22*

Tried once and I quite like it. I’m just thinking whether we can have more timestamp options with less opacity in the setting? I love time stamps - nostalgia! For example brand | date only or date with time stamps or timestamps, etc. I love the date formats like YY M DD (26 07 23) :) thanks

### 5/5 — 10/10 for weddings ⭐️

*2026-06-26*

We had around 220 guests at our ceremony and this app was a hit. Everyone had the best time taking the most hilarious moments - kudos to the team for such an amazing product. The photos were high quality and we loved the vintage filter.


Planning to use it again during my baby shower and my sister’s wedding. Recommended it to all of my friends!!

### 5/5 — More people free

*2026-05-11*

Have a group of 10 but not paying 4 dollars

### 5/5 — Best event photo app!

*2026-04-29*

I used once for my bridal shower as a test run for my upcoming wedding on May 09th and loved every minute of it. It’s easy to use, my guests LOVED it and the photos are so amazing to see from everyone’s pov. I cannot wait to use it for the wedding next weekend!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your review!

We're so glad you had a great time taking lots of amazing photos during your bridal shower and wedding. Our team will continue to do our best to build the best product that provides the best experience for capturing the best moments :)

### 5/5 — TOTALLY WORTH IT

*2026-04-22*

We used Once at my wedding and it was a total hit! All we did was to place the QR code at the entrance and literally everyone joined in including my grandpa (he had the most fun 😂).

All the photos were hilarious and lovely at the same time. Now all my friends are planning to use this at their weddings haha 

Shoutout to the team for fast and professional support when we had some questions at the start!

### 5/5 — Loved it !!

*2026-03-29*

This app is great and easy to use and also very cheap my bachelorette party didn’t have a photographer but everyone was one for the event who he’s I loved seeing everyone’s pictures.

**Developer response:** Glad to know that you enjoyed everyone's photos! If there is anything we can do to make the experience better, please feel free to reach out to us :)

Thank you for the review!

### 3/5 — Watermark Should Be Optional / Paid To Remove

*2026-02-24*

Really liked the UI and playing around with this camera! However the once watermark on all exported photos wasn’t ideal for me / didn’t fit my preferences. Ended up going with a different app for my event!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review! Regarding the timestamp watermark on the images, they can be easily removed in the film settings. Hope we get to see you soon for another event :)

### 5/5 — Perfect for weddings!!

*2026-01-08*

We used this at my sister’s wedding and it was the highlight of the event. Everyone including our parents had sooo much fun taking photos with the disposable camera experience!

Highly recommended ❤️

**Developer response:** Glad you enjoyed using Once at your sister's wedding! Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make the experience even better 😊

### 5/5 — Absolutely love Once!

*2026-01-05*

Loved using Once. Super easy everyone just scanned the QR and started dropping photos. We used it for a birthday, but it’d be perfect for weddings, trips, or even house parties. Honestly just makes sharing pics way less annoying. 100% recommend this app!

### 1/5 — Lost photos

*2026-08-20*

Used this app for my bachelorette and was planning to for my wedding but it lost over half the photos from bachelorette so not worth money at all and don’t use if you want to see the photos again

**Developer response:** We’re so sorry to hear this and this isn’t the experience we want for anyone. Unless the photos were not uploaded to our servers due to bad internet, it's likely that we can recover them! Could you please contact us at hello@once.film with your event details so we can investigate for the photo recovery?

If we’re unable to recover them, we’ll would like to provide a full refund. We really appreciate your feedback and our team will continue to do our best to improve our product.

### 1/5 — Not uploading

*2026-08-03*

Took 50+ photos, only 12 uploaded, gone forever! Cool

### 1/5 — Awful, unusable

*2026-07-30*

Absolutely the worst app I’ve ever used. Good luck opening it in less than 15 seconds, good luck staying logged in, and good luck trying to enjoy this terrible excuse for an app. I don’t know how they’ve managed to make an app that signs you out whenever it feels like it, and that has no redeeming qualities, but they have. You’re better off closing your eyes and missing every event you’d like to photograph, because at least then you won’t have to deal with this app

**Developer response:** Unsure if you're being sarcastic but our app works quite well, currently capturing memories across 1000+ weddings and events per day! Please feel free to reach out at hello@once.film if the app is not working well on your device as we would like to resolve this issue for you.

### 1/5 — Missing photos

*2026-06-19*

I took so many photos at my friend's wedding and a lot of them are missing when I've come home later, special moments that I could have captured on my own camera that are apparently lost? Very disappointing for an app that's marketed to capture someone's special day. There are only 14 'moments' after the event but before we drove home I only had 7 pictures remaining on my 'disposable camera' so where are they all?

**Developer response:** Hey there, we're sorry that your experience wasn't up to expectations. 

As we communicated through email, our team investigated your album in detail and found that the venue’s weak internet connection alongside the app being closed during the photo upload process was the root cause of the issue. Similar to other apps, our app cannot function (i.e. upload photos) if the app is completely closed.

Our team is working our best to make sure all photo uploads happen safely and as quickly as possible. We hope you get a chance to try out our app again, as we would love to help you take the most amazing photos and have a great experience.

### 1/5 — Video Not creating & No option to contact support

*2026-05-22*

I had one video created, I started my second project and the video is not created. I have my photos but no video. Now I am trying to see a contact email id to contact support and there is none. The company pages redirects to other apps. Pls help.

### 1/5 — horrible

*2026-04-27*

installed this with high hopes, big mistake it seems, all the pictures look as if a grainy snapchat filter has been slapped onto them. the quality is so bad im very very disappointed do not waste your time awaiting for the reveal at the end of your event, your better off just buying a real disposable camera.

### 2/5 — Glitchy

*2026-07-27*

Glad I tested this before my wedding. Won’t be using the app is so glitchy. Wouldn’t open all the time. Froze a lot and it was a 3 day even we tested it over and it kept making me resign up when I wanted to just snap a pic.

### 2/5 — Cool concept terrible execution

*2026-04-19*

Love the idea but with the quality of the photos uploaded it’s best to just have people take their own pictures and send it to you. Feels like I wasted my money.

### 2/5 — Great idea but needs further developing

*2026-02-09*

I think this is a great idea and I’ve been testing it before an event just to make sure it works properly before I put a very important event photos in the hands of technology and I’m glad I ended up testing it before. Firstly - it doesn’t work without internet connection which is not ideal and is super slow when you want to take a picture so the moment might be gone by the time you open it and take a photo, secondly some pictures just never appear after the film is available to be shown and thirdly in the latest film I created only 1 photo showed up in the album after the reveal time even though I took about 20 photos. Please look into all the flaws and if you are going to have a wedding and get multiple people take pictures on it, might be a bit risky.

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for trying Once and the detailed feedback.

We're sorry to hear you ran into issues. We'd love to help you and look into the issue you faced - could you reach out to us at hello@once.film? With a few details about your film, we can investigate to get things sorted. This issue has never happened before and we would like to make sure it never happens again.

We're constantly working to make Once more reliable for the moments that matter most, and your feedback really helps. Thank you for this feedback, and looking forward to you email!

### 3/5 — Not worth all that money

*2026-06-06*

I love the concept of this and it’s a good idea!

You have to pay for more than 5 people which I think isn’t very fair as you’re already spending enough money on the actual event.

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2026-08-27*

Easy to set up and great customer service. I had a last minute issue where my event was going to expire they replied straight away to sort it. Captured some great memories from the night.

### 5/5 — Great for events big and small

*2026-08-26*

We used this for our wedding and it was perfect! The guests loved it and we were able to enjoy photos immediately without waiting for the edits from our official photographer. They also captured moments the photographer would never have seen. It was so good we decided to use it for our honeymoon even though it was just the two of us!

### 5/5 — Perfect event camera

*2026-08-25*

I loved using it the app for my wedding day ( I was the bride) . I’d recommend the app to my friends and family for events and perfect for sharing pictures. Also a very helpful team when you have slight issues on the app. 10/10 🩷

### 5/5 — Wedding

*2026-08-25*

I love Once! I got to collect all the photos in all different angles and people. Love how its not all saved in their phones until they delete, I get to keep them and saved me tons of money!

### 5/5 — Excited to use for my baby shower! Easy to set up

*2026-08-24*

I’m preparing for my baby shower and scrolling through IG for ideas and saw how ONCE can be used to capture moments at parties! I am reserving a PhotoBooth, but I love the idea of capturing moments in time and sharing with others. I checked it out and it was so easy to sign up, I was able to choose the theme, number of pics per guest, edit the background and set the date for the event. 
For some reason, I missed choosing the number of guest during their enrollment, but I was able to modify soon after. 
I like that my guest will not have to download the app. I was able to download the QR code and order table cards that my guest will be able to scan.
I can’t wait for my event, I’m
Excited to see the final pictures.

### 5/5 — Amazing!!

*2026-08-17*

Absolutely amazing product that is fantastic for a wedding! It was so beautiful being able to get voice notes for our special day.

**Developer response:** Glad to know that you enjoyed using Once! We hope you made the best memories during your wedding :)

### 5/5 — Perfect for Bachelorette

*2026-08-17*

So easy to use! Made capturing my bachelorette so special. Everyone had fun! Way more affordable than buying everyone disposable cameras & getting them developed

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! Glad to know everyone had lots of fun :)
Our team will continue to build the best product to capture memories.

### 5/5 — Best one out there 🤍

*2026-08-04*

I just had my wedding 2 weeks ago and Once was the best thing we prepared for our wedding. We tried out all the apps out there but Once turned out to be the most reliable and high quality. 100% recommended for soon-to-be brides! I’m planning to use this for all of our family events ❤️

**Developer response:** We're so glad you had a great time taking lots of amazing photos during your wedding! Our team will continue to do our best to build the best product that provides the best experience for capturing the best moments :)
