One camera. Everyone invited. 12 photos each. Cliché turns your night into a disposable camera. Your guests scan a QR code, everyone shoots, and nobody sees a thing until it's over. Then the roll develops and you all get photos of the same night. WHY IT BEATS THE GROUP CHAT ALBUM - 12 photos each, not one more. Every shot counts, so people put their phones away and actually show up. - Nothing to see until the end. Nobody's comparing photos at the table, nobody's begging you to take it again. - Bluetooth picks up who you were with. You get your moments, even the photos you didn't take. HOW IT WORKS - Create the roll and hold up its QR code. Your guests are in within seconds. - Everyone shoots their 12 photos during the night. The roll stays closed while it develops. - You open it when the party's over, up to a week later. Forget to, and it opens on its own. - You get the whole roll, everyone else gets their moments. MADE FOR - Weddings, birthdays, festivals, bachelor and bachelorette parties - At work: conferences, trade shows, offsites, company parties and happy hours - Weekends away with friends, housewarmings, family reunions - Or just a Saturday night, for no reason YOUR PHOTOS STAY BETWEEN YOU - No feed, no followers, no ads - Only the people who were there see the photos - You pick how many photos everyone gets, 12 by default No photographer. No 2,000-photo album where you don't recognize anyone. Just your night, developed for the people who lived it.

Your guests all have a phone. Time to Flash turns them into disposable cameras. Put a QR code on the tables. Everyone scans it, takes a limited number of shots, and sees nothing until the reveal. The next morning, or a week later: you decide. WHAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE: THE LIMIT Five photos per person, not fifty. Nobody snaps away, everyone chooses. Those choices are what make the memories, and that is why a wedding album filled by many hands beats a folder of 800 photos that nobody will ever open again. ONE ALBUM, FILLED BY EVERYONE Every photo lands in the same place. You discover your party through your guests' eyes: the table at the back, the kids under the buffet, the fit of giggles the photographer missed. NOTHING IS REVEALED WITHOUT YOUR SAY-SO An awkward photo? Remove it before anyone sees it. You also set the moment of the reveal, and you can move it. FIVE FILM STYLES Disposable, retro, black and white, instant, or the photo as it is. With the date printed in the corner, like the prints of the old days. The look stays with the photo, right down to the file you download. YOUR GUESTS INSTALL NOTHING They scan, their camera opens in the browser, they shoot. This app is for those who want the comfort of a real app: your parties found again in one tap, your photos saved to your library, and uploads that keep going even when the venue's network gives up. WHO IT'S FOR Weddings, birthdays, hen and stag parties, company events, weekends with friends, holidays. Anywhere there are lots of people and nobody wants to be the photographer all night. FOR HOSTS A dashboard to follow guests and the shots taken, posters and table cards to print from the app, a complete guide, and a help page to forward to anyone who gets stuck on the day.
