Your friends' photos, hidden until the reveal. Latent is a shared disposable camera for any trip, dinner, party or night out — everyone shoots, nobody peeks, until it's time to develop. Remember the disposable cameras that used to circulate at every party? Latent brings that back for the group-chat era — except now the whole event shares one roll, and the anticipation of waiting for photos to "develop" is part of the fun again. HOW IT WORKS Create a roll for anything — a trip, a birthday, a dinner, a night out, a weekly hangout Guests nearby scan a QR code to join instantly via App Clip — no download required to shoot Or join automatically based on location if you have the app Shoot photos and short videos — everything stays hidden until reveal No one can see any photos while the roll is live — not even you Once the event ends, the gallery reveals for everyone at once Buy the individual shots you love, or unlock the whole gallery TRAVEL ROLLS Heading somewhere with friends? Start a travel roll — no location limit, share the QR with your group anywhere in the world. Shoot for a day or two weeks, and the roll reveals automatically when the trip ends. YOUR LATTE IS READY The moment your roll develops, Latent lets you know — even if the app is closed. Open it and every photo is waiting. BUILT FOR REAL EVENTS Latent uses your event's real location, so only people who were actually there can join and shoot. Set a shot limit per guest, a custom radius, and exactly when the reveal happens — hours later, or the next morning. AI HELPS THE BEST SHOTS RISE Every gallery is quietly reviewed the moment it's revealed — blurry, dark, or empty shots get filtered out automatically, so what everyone actually sees is the good stuff. RECURRING OR ONE-TIME Running the same weekly night at your bar or café? Set up a recurring roll once, and it resets itself automatically — new roll, new QR code, no extra setup, forever. Or spin up a one-time roll for a single event and let it run its course. YOUR MEMORIES, YOUR CALL Buy just the photos you're in, or the whole gallery if you want everything. Everything you purchase gets saved permanently to your Negatives — your personal archive of every event you've been part of, even after the shared gallery disappears. FOR VENUES AND ORGANIZERS Own a bar, run a weekly event, or hosting something special? Create a roll, share the QR code, and that's it — no ongoing management, no app to check. Latent runs the reveal, the countdown, and the gallery automatically. Download Latent and bring back the magic of waiting to see how the photos turned out.

WeWere is a shared disposable camera for your events. Create an event, put the QR code on the tables, and every guest becomes a photographer: no account, no app required for guests (the QR opens right in their browser). Everyone's photos land in one shared album, live. HOW IT WORKS • Host an event in 30 seconds, pick the occasion, print the table card. • Guests scan the QR. They join with just their name and start shooting. • Photos appear in the shared album in real time, with a film look applied live in the camera. • Or go disposable-style: photos stay hidden and "develop" all together at the reveal time you set. MADE FOR THE MOMENT • Film looks applied live. Each guest picks their own. • Flash, tap-to-focus, pinch-to-zoom, review before it uploads. • No photo lost to bad venue WiFi: shots queue on the phone and upload when the network returns. • Shot limits like a real film roll: per guest, or one shared roll for the whole party. • Likes, push notifications, and a nudge to get the dance floor shooting again. AFTER THE PARTY • A recap video with music, generated in the app. • Save everything to your Photos in one tap. • The album stays for everyone who was there. PRICING Free for events up to 10 guests. Every feature included, no watermark. One-time purchases (no subscription) unlock bigger events: 15, 25, 100 or 250 guests. The projectable live wall is included from the 25-guest size. Photos are private to the event's members. WeWere is made in Europe.
