ROLLA — The disposable film camera, reimagined for the moments worth waiting for. No previews. No filters mid-shoot. No instant gratification. Just one finite roll, shared with the friends you love, locked until you develop it together. HOW IT WORKS • Create an event — your wedding, your trip, your dinner, your night out • Pick a roll — 12, 24, 36, or 48 shots • Invite up to 4 friends with a QR code • Shoot blind — no one sees the photos until the event ends • Develop together — reveal the roll as a group on the host's signal WHY ROLLA Phone cameras killed the moment. Everyone's reviewing, deleting, re-shooting. Rolla brings back the magic of waiting — the anticipation of a developed roll, the thrill of seeing what your friends actually captured. PERFECT FOR • Weddings and engagements • Bachelorette and bachelor parties • Group trips and festivals • Birthdays and milestones • Family gatherings and Eid • Concerts and nights out FEATURES • 3 cinematic film looks — Kodak Gold, Portra 400, Tri-X B&W • Group events for up to 4 shooters • QR code and link invites • Locked photo vault until reveal • Save in HD, share to Instagram, print at home • Arabic, Spanish and English • Designed in the UAE, made for everywhere PRICING • Free: 1 event/month, 12 shots, solo • Weekly: $4.99 — unlimited events (3-day free trial) • Monthly: $7.99 — flexible, cancel anytime • Annual: $29.99/yr — best value (7-day free trial) Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends.

A camera that hides its photos.Until the cake is cut. Until tomorrow at noon.Then every shot, from every guest, unlocks at once.Capture together. Develop together. Filmly turns any event — wedding, birthday, graduation, trip — into one shared camera roll. Everyone shoots from their own phone, every photo lands in one private album, and nothing reveals until the moment you set. ― HOW IT WORKS ― 1. Host creates an event in 30 seconds. Pick a reveal time. 2. Guests scan a QR code, tap to join, start shooting. 3. Each guest has a limited shot count — intentional, like a disposable camera. 4. At reveal time, every photo unlocks for everyone at once. ― WHAT MAKES FILMLY DIFFERENT ― • Reveal countdown. Photos stay blurred until the host's chosen time — anticipation is the best filter. • Lock-screen Live Activity. See remaining shots and the reveal countdown without unlocking your phone. • Real attribution. Every photo carries the photographer's name. • AI Reel. Filmly stitches the best shots from all guests into a 30-second highlight video. One tap to share. • Zero social. No followers, no algorithmic feed. Just the people at your event and the photos you took together. • Privacy first. Photos live in your private event album, visible only to invited guests. Delete the event and they're gone. All plans include reveal countdown, Live Activity, AI Reel, full-res download, host moderation, and web guest mode.
