HOW IT WORKS • Create a capsule for your event and set an unlock date • Invite friends with a 6-character code • Everyone snaps photos during the event • The capsule stays locked until the big day — then it opens for everyone at once WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • A real lock, not a fake one — photos are sealed on the server, so the surprise is guaranteed • Relive the moment with an auto-playing montage when the capsule opens • See each friend's shots as their own story • Save your favourites to your camera roll • Get notified the moment a capsule unlocks Perfect for parties, weddings, trips, birthdays, festivals — any moment worth reliving together. Your first capsule (up to 2 guests) is free. Bigger events unlock with a one-time purchase.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Capsule at none against Capsule's 7. Capsule also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
