Reveal is the digital disposable camera for your events. Create an album, display the QR code, and let your guests capture the celebration from every angle. Photos stay hidden during the event — then everything is revealed at once, at the time you choose. THE REVEAL MOMENT During the celebration, no one sees the photos: no passing phones around, no gallery to keep checking. When it’s time for the reveal, the entire gallery develops at once, like prints emerging from a darkroom. It’s the moment everyone has been waiting for. YOUR GUESTS JOIN IN SECONDS • They scan the QR code or open your link • They enter just their first name — no account needed • They land straight in your album, ready to take photos JUST LIKE SHOOTING ON FILM • A limited number of photos per guest: every shot counts • No editing, no filters: the celebration just as it happened • Every photo is credited to the guest who took it, using their first name YOUR EVENT, YOUR RULES • Choose the number of photos per guest • Schedule the end of the event and the reveal • As the host, view and delete photos at any time • Decide who can see the revealed gallery: everyone, or just you FOR ALL YOUR SPECIAL MOMENTS Weddings, birthdays, parties, bachelor and bachelorette parties, trips with friends, New Year’s Eve, team building: every event has its own album, QR code, and rules. PLAN AHEAD Create your album whenever you like: your guests can only access it once you share the QR code. Perfect for stress-free wedding planning. SIMPLE PRICING Free for up to 5 participants. Beyond that, a one-time payment per event, based on the number of guests. No subscription.

About

Time to Flash

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. Events are created on timetoflash.fr.
