How to Set Up the Welcome Screen

The Welcome Screen is the first thing your guests see when they open the event link or scan the QR code.

Here you can add a short greeting and instructions to guide guests before they upload photos.

Step 1 — Open Your Event

Go to Events in the left sidebar.

Click the event you want to customize.

Step 2 — Open “Text & Overlays”

Inside the event, look at the left sidebar.

Click Text & Overlays.

Step 3 — Edit the Welcome Screen Text

In the Welcome Screen section, you can customize the text shown to guests.

Available fields:

• Title — the main welcome message

  (for example: “Welcome to Our Event!”)

• Subtitle — a short explanation or instruction

  (for example: “Upload your photos to create a custom magnet”)

Click inside each field and enter your own text.

Changes are saved automatically.

Step 4 — Choose how guests can upload photos

Open Settings in the left sidebar of the event.

In the Upload Methods section, you can enable:

• Camera — guests can take a photo directly
• Gallery — guests can upload photos from their phone

You can enable one option or both options.

The Welcome Screen will automatically show only the upload methods you enable here.

For example:

• If only Camera is enabled — guests will see only the camera option.
• If both are enabled — guests will see both options on the Welcome Screen.

Step 4 — Set when the upload link is active

In Settings, scroll to the Access section.

Here you can control when guests are allowed to open the upload link.

Available options:

• By event status

  The link is active only when the event status is In Progress and inactive otherwise.

• Custom

  You can manually set a start and end date/time when the link is available.

• No access

  The upload link is completely disabled for guests.

This is useful if you want to:

• Open uploads slightly before the event starts
• Keep uploads open after the event ends
• Fully close access when needed

Step 5 — Preview the guest experience

Open your event link or scan the QR code to see the Welcome Screen as guests see it.

You will see:

• Your custom title and subtitle
• Only the upload buttons that are enabled in Settings

Tip

If guests report that they cannot upload photos, double-check:

• The event status is set to In Progress
• At least one Upload Method is enabled in Settings
