The Shared. App is a simple, universal way for anyone with a smartphone to sync cameras at in-person get-togethers. There is no need to worry about sending photos, they’ve already been shared. How it Works: Download and create a shared account. Quickly create an account by using a unique phone number or via google / apple automatic login. No need to share personal information to sync cameras. My Shared ID. Each person is provided a unique sharedID Code. Create a Get-Together. By simply naming the Get-Together and location, you are now the host with the most. Set the timer. A host sets the duration and starts a Get-Together. Whether you head home early or stay for the after party, we got you! Add more time to a Get-Together or stop it at any time. Add friends on the fly. To join the Get-Together and sync cameras, a host scans each friend’s Shared ID. Take photos in the app. Any photos taken in the sharedcamera app will be synced instantly to the group. PhotoStream.Think of a stream of consciousness but with photos, each added the moment they are snapped. Tag and search for your friends by name and view your favorites. Download and share photos anywhere, they are, after all, your photos. Best F#@king Filter. Looking for photos of a certain person? Tag your friends and filter the photostream by tagged friends. Also filter by who took a photo, Get-Together name, date, or location. No need to create or organize folders. #NotByYourselfie. Every photo contains a story. Relive moments or start conversations between friends who were with you. Favorite photos and tag friends to make photos easier to find. Post to social media from the app. Make it Personal. Choose from a selection of musically inspired colors, multiple languages, and even choose a lefty or righty button. What happens in Vegas Mode, stays in Vegas Mode. Right out of the box, your Shared. App will sync your photos automatically. However, we all know there are times it may be more prudent (#WinkWink) to review a photo before it syncs. Turn on Vegas Mode to approve every photo before it is synced with the group or download to your private camera roll.
