We got tired of always asking people to share last night’s photos so we built Flik-It. Flik-It’s camera allows users to seamlessly upload photos to an exclusive live feed for everyone at the event. After the event, a 90-second compilation video of the night’s best moments will be curated by Flik-It along with the ability to download any or all of the shared photos. It’s simple. Set the time and date for your event, text your friends the link to join, and start taking photos. Enjoy all the Flik-It features and your custom built video recap. Use Flik-It for your next party, game, vacation, wedding, reunion, or chill Saturday with friends. We’re constantly upgrading the app so if you want your idea on Flik-It; we’d love the feedback.
