How photo wall works for confirmations
Snapr makes photo wall for your confirmation simple and effortless. Create an event in seconds, get a unique QR code, and share it with your guests. They scan the code and upload photos directly — no app download needed.
A photo wall is the grid mode of the display page: instead of one picture at a time, the screen tiles up to six guest photos at once in a fixed asymmetric layout, and the selection moves one photo forward on every interval as new uploads arrive.
Everything is included in the free tier: up to 200 photos, live slideshow, QR code, and 14-day storage. Need more? Premium keeps the photos a full year, with original-quality downloads and unlimited uploads, for a one-time payment.
Setting up Photo Wall
- 1Open the event's display page in a browser on whichever machine drives the screen — the link is public, so nothing has to be signed in there.
- 2Press 2, or tap the grid icon in the top bar, to switch from single view to the photo wall.
- 3Set the pace with + and −: the wall moves one photo forward every 1 to 30 seconds, 5 seconds by default.
- 4Leave the QR overlay showing (Q toggles it) and press F for fullscreen, so guests across the room can still join while the wall runs.
Photo Wall — the specifics
- Photos on screen at once
- Up to 6. With fewer than six uploaded, the layout adapts: 1 full screen, 2 side by side, 3 as one large plus two stacked, 4 as a 2×2.
- Layout at six photos
- One large photo filling the left half, two medium top right, three small bottom right. The positions are fixed, not random.
- How the wall moves
- The six-photo window slides forward by one photo per interval, so five of the six stay and one is replaced.
- Interval
- 5 seconds by default, adjustable from 1 to 30 seconds in one-second steps with + and − or the on-screen buttons.
- Cropping
- Tiles are cropped to fill their box, so tall phone photos lose top and bottom. Single view (key 1) shows every photo whole.
- New uploads
- Downloaded to the display machine first, then inserted about six places ahead in batches of up to six, so they surface within a cycle or two.
When something goes wrong
The same six photos keep going round.
The window only moves one photo per interval, so early in the evening with twenty uploads you see almost the same set every time. Shorten the interval with + while the gallery is small, or stay in single view (key 1) until more photos have landed.
Portrait photos look chopped off in the tiles.
Grid tiles crop to fill, which cuts the top and bottom of tall phone photos. Switch to single view with key 1 for speeches and the first dance, where the whole frame matters, then press 2 to go back.
A photo someone just uploaded isn't on the wall yet.
Each new file is downloaded to the display machine before it is inserted, and it goes in a few places ahead rather than into the visible tiles. Expect a cycle or two, longer on a busy venue wifi. If the wifi icon top right has gone red, the display machine has lost its connection.
What it is not good for
If people are going to stand and study individual pictures — a memorial, or a small gathering that produces twenty photos all evening — the cropping and the constant movement work against you, and single view is the better screen.

QR Code
The QR code holds one thing: the guest upload address for a single event — a snapr.no link with the event id and a 64-character access key. A phone camera opens it in the browser. Every event gets its own code, and it points at nothing else.
Live Slideshow
A full-screen browser page at snapr.no/<language>/event/<event-id>/display that listens for new uploads and shows them as they arrive. It runs on whatever drives the screen — laptop, TV browser, Chromecast or AirPlay — and needs no software installed.
Photo Sharing
After scanning the QR code a guest lands on an upload page in the phone's browser: one button opens the camera, the other picks from the gallery, up to 20 files per go. The files join the event's shared collection and appear on the big screen.
TV Display
TV display means getting the event's display page onto the television at the venue. Three routes: an HDMI cable from a laptop, casting a Chrome tab to a Chromecast, or AirPlay screen mirroring. The TV runs an ordinary web page — there is no Snapr TV app.
Photo Booth Alternative
Using Snapr instead of renting a photo booth: guests shoot on their own phones, upload through a QR code, and the pictures appear on a screen in the room. There is no box, no camera, no lighting and no prints — only the live screen and the shared gallery.
Guest Upload
Guest upload is the core of Snapr: a guest points their phone camera at your QR code, the upload page opens in the browser, and they pick photos from the camera roll or shoot a new one. No app, no account, no password — the link itself is the access.
Frequently Asked Questions
What guests and hosts ask about most.
Can guests upload photos from the church ceremony and the party afterward?
Yes — share the QR code before the church service and again at the reception. Photos from the ceremony and the celebration afterward all collect in one gallery, so you don't end up with the church photos on one relative's phone and the party photos scattered elsewhere.
We have grandparents and young cousins on the guest list — will everyone be able to join in?
Yes, that's the kind of mixed-generation guest list Snapr is made for. There's no app or account required, so grandparents and younger family members can all scan the same QR code and upload without any tech help.
How many photos should we expect from a confirmation celebration?
With 15-60 guests, most confirmations fit comfortably within the free plan's 200 photos and 14-day storage. If you'd like the memories to last longer, or expect a bigger family gathering, Premium extends that to unlimited photos and a full year.
