Guide

Collect wedding guest videos with the same QR code as photos.

Guest videos are harder to collect than photos because files are bigger and people hesitate to record. Keep the ask short, make upload progress clear, and give guests prompts they can answer in seconds.

Prompts

Ask for short clips, not speeches.

Guests are more likely to send a ten-second moment than a polished message. Ask for tiny films: cheers, dancing, table reactions, and quick wishes.

  • *Ten seconds from your table.
  • *A quick wish for the couple.
  • *The dance floor from your view.
  • *A tiny detail that made you smile.

Capture

Make video feel like the camera apps guests already know.

Tap for photo and hold for video is familiar behavior. The guest should not have to choose from a complicated upload menu before the moment is gone.

  • *Use a single shutter.
  • *Show recording time.
  • *Let the guest review before sending.

Upload

Show progress and prepare for large files.

Videos take longer than photos. A good guest flow shows preparing, upload progress, success, and retry states so guests know the clip is not lost.

  • *Keep the screen open during upload.
  • *Use a retry state if signal drops.
  • *Limit video length to protect reliability.

Afterward

Separate videos from photos in the gallery.

Hosts need to browse videos differently than photos. Keep clips in their own tab, use reliable playback, and let hosts download the full archive later.

  • *Video tab in the gallery.
  • *Poster thumbnails for scanning.
  • *ZIP export with photos and videos together.
Questions

Answers before you make the QR.

Do guests need to download an app?

No. Gooya opens in the phone browser from one QR code. Guests can use the camera or their library without installing an app, making an account, or remembering a password.

Can guests see everyone else's uploads?

No. Gooya is write-only for guests by default. They send their own memory, see that it landed, and return to the event. The private gallery belongs to the host.

Can the host download everything?

Yes. The host can download the visible memories in one ZIP, including the original photo and video files Gooya stores for the event.
