The Best

Nothing else to write. Photo Party Upload and all of the LAPP software AND hardware is the best.

Social sharing software

We use this daily. It’s amazing for sharing the green screen videos and photos we create at film premieres and concerts. It’s fully GDPR compliant. Been using it for 8 years!

Very stable and easy interface! BUT...

After trying tons of other photo sharing software, PPU has proven itself the most stable and the easiest to use. Two gripes: I wish the SELECT button on the photos was solid, not semi-opaque. Guests can’t find it and end up tapping all over the screen when we’re not there to assist. Second of the gripes: The DONE screen after guest sends their pics needs to time out after 8 seconds or so. The next folks almost always click the Email button again and send someone else’s photos-the previous person’s photos. Thanks! Hope to keep working with you!

Good

Works well overall, has some bugs & glitches here and there. Hoping the iOS 8 version comes out soon!

Very good

This version cures a nasty bug that appeared in vet 3.0. That aside, the app is very good and combined with the companion server app is a powerful tool for professional event photo work.

Good but not now!

This is a great app, but DO NOT DOWNLOAD at this time. IT DOES NOT WORK IOS7! I have an event next week where my client has paid for photos to iPad and it appears I have to issue a refund. I know PPU is working on the issue, but there is no way of knowing when the app will be fixed or updated.

Best photo booth social media app

Photo Party Upload offers more professional features than any other app I have found. I have been able to get more clients and charge them more because of this app. Great support too. They answer the phone every time I call.
They are always releasing new features. Can't wait to see what they have in store for the next update

Excellent App, Outstanding Customer Service

I use this app in conjunction with my photo booth in order for guests to upload their photos instantly. It's incredibly user friendly, speedy, and easy to set up. Jason and Brian are also lightning fast and incredibly helpful should you need to ask them a question or two. Even on a Sunday morning before a big event. I highly recommend!

Awesome App!

Photo Party Upload is by far the best app to use with my Photo Booth when i want to do social media sharing or emailing! I've been using this app for quite a while now and my guests LOVE it! They are amazed that they can post their pictures in real time right to their social media page. Have I mentioned how amazing the customer service is? Kudos to Brian for being by far the best at helping you anytime you have a question. I've emailed him a few times and within 20 mins max he's responded back with a return email and even a phone call! He's never too busy to answer my questions!
This is a must to download if you are a Photographer or Photo Booth owner! Even if your not, its still amazing to use!

Thanks PPU for putting out a fantastic app! Cant say enough great things about you and your customer service!

Awesome App!

PPU is an awesome app! It effortlessly transfers photos wirelessly to your iPad(s) seconds after they are taken. Guests can immediately review them and choose which ones to send to their Facebook, Twitter, or e-mail accounts, or to your printer. Photos can even be automatically branded with an event name or product logo. Updates are posted frequently. Well worth a try.

Best Event Photo Solution!

If you're an event Photographer, this software is a MUST-HAVE! This is an easy up-sell to clients, and adds an incredibly valuable service to your business with a very minimal investment. Guests love it because they can share their photos immediately, before interest fades. Clients love it because you facilitate a great return on their investment by spreading awareness of the event and their brand through the social media outlets. You love it because not only can you charge your client for it, but you can also set it up to charge guests for sharing and/or printing the images. If you're running an onsite-print operation, you can eliminate the need for a Technician by allowing guests to select and print their own images via the print feature. I've used PPU for over a year now, and each update of the software adds more stability and more super helpful features. It's worth mentioning that you can also brand the user interface and the photos with your own (or a client's) logo to put the cherry on top. This is, by far, the easiest, cheapest, and most effective way of integrating social media adding guest interaction into event photography today.

Looks promising but....

I haven't used it yet but it has a great idea. It only gets 1 star because the instructions are misspelled and look like a child wrote them. I plan on a full review soon.

Dangerous app

This app only works in conjunction with a helper application installed on a PC. In the installation instructions they tell you that you must permantly disable the firewall on the PC to enable photos to be transferred from the PC to your iPad running this app. This is ridiculous. Expecting their clients to leave a PC used for business purposes permantly exposed on the internet without a firewall is completely irresponsible.

In addition, this app is very poorly written. It doesn't even support auto rotation.

Um....?

App doesn't do anything! No instructions. No direction on how to access pics from camera. Asks you to "log in" --- ah, log in to what, exactly?

Great, but give yourself time to set this up

Thanks to Brian for a great unique app for event photogs! I just shot a party and guests LOVED seeing their photos and uploading them to FB and email. Client loved the viral marketing for their brand.

But be sure to give yourself days between your first paying gig and download to set this up. It's far from intuitive, but the web site's instructions and Brian's personal service will get you up and running. I'd love to see this integrated straight through the Apple Camera Connection Kit and ditch the netbook intermediary... But I also understand the reasons for needing the netbook. It gives this a LOT of power!

Also note: Nikon users, you'll need to get capture software to tether your camera with. The Nikon version runs over $100. Lame when Canon provides it free. Not Ppu's issue, but a caveat all users should note. Also, don't plan on adding or switching cameras to your setup easily.

For big events, you can EASILY add multiple iPads per photographer! This is essential because people are slow on entering their info on an iPad.

Best app for event photography!

Its the perfect addition to any event!

Photography integrated with Social Media, & Data Capture...this app is the "first of it

Today companies are all about finding new ways to get exposure through social media. This program enables us to use photography as a "tool" to capture data, drive traffic to our clients Facebook sites, and brand their product, message, and company through social media outlets such as Facebook, Twitter, and Email. We also offer the program for our photo booths and non corporate clients, it allows the guests to immediately interact with their image on the ipad(s) and upload to their favorite social site. As a event photography company with 60% corporate based clients, this fit into our companies profile perfectly, it was exactly what we were looking for!

Maybe not quite ready for primetime.?

Love the concept, and am looking forward to seeing further versions of this. It is not possible to test the app without entering email and agreeing to a agreement.. which is layout-text no words yet, Im sure this will be in the next revision.

Think the "first of its kind" claim is forgetting solid app's like ShuttlerSnitch.?

Best Photo Uploading App Ever!

Photo Party Upload will change your life!

I recently used this app in my booth at a trade show in lieu of a photo booth. It quickly became clear that it was one of the best things at the entire trade show! The setup was quick and easy and was super simple and compact. Everyone walking by asked us what we were doing and immediately jumped into our booth for a picture when they heard they could upload directly to Twitter and Facebook from the iPad!

People who used it said it was the "best thing ever" and "so much fun"! It definitely made our booth stand out from the rest!

The watermark turned out awesome too and it is such a great tool for marketing and promotion! The interface is sleek and attractive looking. The program also allows you to customize the upload options and have preset messages to send with your photos.

Overall, this app is wonderful and I would highly recommend it! It seems like it is the only app of its kind out there and if you ask me, it's clearly the best one!

Brilliant!

I had been searching high and low for a program like this, so I was beyond thrilled when this app was released. The interface is so user friendly and it syncs perfectly with our booths. This social media marketing tool will significantly improve my yield and make our service stand out amongst the sea of competitors. Nicely done, and thank you!
