How photo download works for halloweens
Snapr makes photo download for your halloween 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.
Photo download is how the host gets everything out afterwards. On the event page, Download all fetches every photo and video in the gallery, packs them into one ZIP in the browser and saves it to your computer. The files come out exactly as guests uploaded them.
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 Download
- 1Wait a day or two before downloading — people keep uploading the morning after, and you do not want two half-complete ZIPs.
- 2Open the event in your dashboard on a laptop and check the media count against what you expect.
- 3Press Download all and leave the tab open and in the foreground; a percentage counts up while the files are fetched and zipped.
- 4Unzip it, copy the folder to wherever you actually keep photos, and only then stop worrying about the storage deadline — 14 days on free, a year on Premium.
Photo Download — the specifics
- Who can download everything
- The host, from the event page. Download all is a Premium feature; free events show the upgrade instead.
- Format
- One ZIP named after the event, with a single folder inside holding all photos and videos.
- Quality
- Premium downloads give you the file exactly as uploaded. Free events download the display copy, which is resized to 2048 px for fast loading.
- File names in the ZIP
- Renamed to image_… and video_… with the original extension. Guest file names are not carried over.
- How much there can be
- Up to unlimited files on Premium, downloaded at original quality — a fully used event is a very large ZIP, so download on a computer.
- Deadline
- 14 days on the free plan, 1 year on Premium, counted from the event. After that the gallery is gone.
When something goes wrong
The ZIP download fails or the tab crashes on a phone.
The archive is built in the browser's memory before it is saved, so a multi-gigabyte event is far more than a phone will hold. Do it on a laptop or desktop with the tab in the foreground; if you only need a few shots on the phone, save them one at a time from the gallery instead.
The ZIP arrives with fewer files than the gallery shows.
Individual files that fail to fetch are skipped so the rest of the download still completes. Run Download all again on a stable connection — it re-fetches everything from scratch — and compare the file count in the folder against the media count on the event page.
You realise weeks later that you never downloaded anything.
A free event is kept for 14 days and then deleted; nothing can be restored after that. If you are still inside the window, upgrading extends the same event to a year and unlocks Download all — but upgrade before the deadline, not after.
What it is not good for
It is a plain bulk export, not an album: everything lands in one flat folder with generated file names, with no sorting by guest, no selecting a subset, and no way to have the ZIP mailed to you.
