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.
