Guests do not need an account, an app, or a password. They scan the code, pick the photos they already took from their own gallery, and send them. Most people arrive with a phone full of pictures from the last two hours, so choosing several at once is the normal path rather than the exception.

Videos and voice messages work the same way. A guest can leave a spoken message where they would otherwise have written a line in a book, and add their name at the end if they want the message attributed. The articles here cover file types, size limits, what a guest can delete afterwards, and how to get more people to upload at all.

How many guests upload has less to do with the product than with when they are asked. A sign on the table is read early, a mention during the speeches is remembered, and a link sent the next morning catches everyone who meant to and forgot. The section on increasing participation is about that timing rather than about settings.
