Comparison

Gooya vs GuestCam: a lower price and a dial-in line, or voice in the QR and a private album.

GuestCam costs less, keeps photos longer and sells a phone number guests can call to leave a message. Gooya takes voice notes from the same QR code as the photos, keeps the album hidden from guests until the host sends it and gives iPhone guests a dual camera without downloading any app. Prices checked 2026-10-23 on guestcam.co/pricing and guestcam.co/.

Where GuestCam wins

Price, storage, the audio line and its review claim.

GuestCam's Standard plan is $49 against The Event at $89, and it keeps photos 12 to 14 months against Gooya's 3 months. Its $30 add-on gives guests a number to call and leave a voicemail, and its homepage claims more than 230 reviews at 4.9. Premium includes six galleries (guestcam.co/pricing, checked 2026-10-23).

  • *$49 or $97 one-time.
  • *12 to 14 months of storage.

  • *230+ reviews claimed on its own site.

Where Gooya is different

Only what we verified in Gooya's own product.

Voice notes come from the same QR code as the photos, on iPhone and Android, with no add-on. On GuestCam, voice is a phone number sold as an add-on.

  • *By default, guests see nothing until the host sends the album. The host can also choose to open the album from the start.
  • *On iPhone, the Reaction camera films the moment and the guest's face at once, without downloading any app.
  • *The host downloads every original in one ZIP.

Real hosts

What hosts say after the event.

“I cried when I saw my mom's reaction to the father-daughter dance — the dual camera caught the dance and her face in the same shot. I'd never have gotten that myself.”
Monika · Wedding host
“The best part was seeing real footage from real people, not just the photographer's version of the night.”
Veronica · Event host
“It didn't dump hundreds of photos onto my phone and eat my storage — I got to pick exactly what I wanted to keep.”
Michelle · Party host
