Question 1

What is a QR code photo album and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

A QR code photo album is a shared online album that opens when someone scans a QR code. The host creates the album and displays the code on tables or signs. Guests scan it with their phone camera, the album opens in the browser, and they upload their photos and videos. New uploads appear for everyone in real time.

Question 6

Is Picsylo suitable for corporate events and conferences?
