Questions hosts ask us

Do our guests need to download an app?

No. They scan the code, the album opens in their phone's browser, and they upload. There is nothing to install and no account to create, which is why it works for guests of every age.

Do we need the app?

No. Everything works in a browser today, on your phone and on your laptop. The iPhone and Android app is for whoever is hosting: it buzzes when photos land, lets you moderate from the dance floor, and saves favourites to your camera roll. Your guests will never need it.

Is there a limit on how many guests can upload?

Never. Most album apps cap you at 50, 175, or 350 guests and charge more as your list grows. Lovely Day does not count your guests at all.

Is the album private?

Your album lives at its own unguessable link and is not indexed by search engines. Anyone with the link can add and view photos, which is what makes it effortless at a party. You can hide or delete anything from the host dashboard.

Who owns the photos?

You and your guests do. We never license, sell, or train anything on your photos. You can download the entire album as one file whenever you want.

How long do you keep our photos?

The Album includes 12 months of hosting and Forever includes 10 years. We will always email you before anything expires, and the download-everything button never stops working.

Can we use this for a child's party?

Yes, and it is the case we hear about most. Turn on approval in your dashboard and nothing appears in the album until a parent has looked at it. Any guest can also ask for a photo to come down without needing an account.

What if half the guests are not good with phones?

They scan the code with the camera app they already have and the album opens in their browser. There is nothing to download and no account to make, which is the entire reason we work this way.

Can guests keep adding photos after the party?

Yes. The album stays open after the night ends, so the photos on phones that never came out during the party can still land the next morning. Guests can add from home days later, and the link keeps working for as long as the album is hosted.
