Every guest sees the same moment differently. Recap turns your event into a shared disposable camera experience. Everyone gets a limited number of shots, adds their perspective, and comes together in one shared gallery. Create an event and invite your people with a QR code, link, or invite code. Guests can take photos in Recap or add favorites from their camera roll when uploads are enabled. Fewer shots. More intention. Set a photo limit for each guest, just like a disposable camera.
