For contributors · The invitation
Invite them like it's an occasion.
Guests open a sealed envelope, not a link. One tap breaks the seal and the card slides out, ready to join.
Step 3 · The link opens
It opens like a film.
An animated intro with your names, then the gallery, split into its moments.
Both on Advanced plans
Step 4 · Find yourself
Stop scrolling past two thousand pictures.
Take one selfie and see every photo you're in, from everyone's phones and the professional's camera.
6 photos of you
From Sam, Leo and the photographer
Step 5 · Keep it
Keep it, not just see it.
Every photo stays in your Picsta, on the app or any browser. Nothing is deleted for going over a limit.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between a personal event and a group event?
Who adds the photos. In a personal event only you upload, then share one link with family and friends. In a group event everyone you invite adds their own photos. Both get a shared link, and everyone finds themselves with a selfie. You can turn a personal event into a group later.
Do people need an account to see the photos?
No. Anyone with your shared link opens it in a browser, finds their photos with a selfie and downloads them. Only people who join a group event to add photos make a free account, once.
Do guests need the Picsta app to join a group event?
No. Guests open the invitation link in any browser on any phone, join, add their photos, and find themselves with a selfie. The app is optional.
Who controls what's in the gallery?
The host. You control the invite code (let it expire or make a new one), hide photos and remove anyone. Every member also gets their own copy of the event in their dashboard and can hide photos from their own version.
How do group plans work?
A group plan is a one-time payment that never renews. Any member can upgrade the event, and the higher limits apply to everyone in it. The free plan covers 2,500 photos and 50 people sharing. Current prices: picsta.app/pricing.
Our photographer sent us a Picsta link. What can we do with it?
Find every photo of you with a selfie, save photos to your own account and download them in the quality they were delivered in. If your photographer offers client albums, you can heart and comment on photos, see the album design as it's made, and approve it before it goes to print.
Can I make something from the photos?
Yes. Turn any selection into a flip-through book you can share, or download as a PDF to print, or make a vertical highlight reel of the photos you're in with one tap. Your Photos gathers you from every event link you've saved.
