Important Notes
QR Sharing is available from Snappic App version 1.25 and later.
Always test your QR code color and contrast before the event.
A stable internet connection is recommended for instant access after scanning.
QR Code Color
Choose colors with high contrast between the QR code and its background.
Example: Dark QR code on a light background.
Avoid low-contrast combinations (e.g., dark blue on black).
Test scan before going live to ensure readability.
Internet Quality
A weak connection can delay uploads and affect QR scanning experience.
Guests may see a “Session not available yet” message if the upload is pending.
Once the booth reconnects and uploads complete, the QR link will work automatically.
What Is QR Sharing
QR Sharing allows guests to instantly access their photo or video sessions by scanning a QR code generated by the Snappic app.
It eliminates the need to manually input email addresses or phone numbers.
Perfect for quick, contactless sharing at busy events.
How to Enable QR Sharing
Open your event in the Snappic Dashboard.
Navigate to the Event Options section.
Enable QR Sharing.
Save your changes.
Once enabled, QR Sharing will appear as a sharing option alongside Email, SMS, and Social Media on your booth interface.
Data Collection Options
To collect guest data while using QR Sharing, you must enable one of the following options under Data Collection in your event settings:
Request Data When Sessions Are Unavailable
Prompts guests to enter their email or phone number only if the session isn’t uploaded yet.
Always Request Share Data
Collects guest data for every session, regardless of upload status.
Allow Skipping Share Data (not recommended for unstable internet)
Guests can skip data entry, but if the session hasn’t uploaded, their QR link may not work until uploads complete.
💡 Tip: If you’re unsure about upload speeds or network quality, avoid enabling “Allow Skipping Share Data.”
Customizing the QR Code
You can customize the appearance of your QR code to fit your event branding:
Go to the QR Sharing section in your event setup.
Adjust colors, contrast, and style to match your design.
Always test readability — ensure there’s enough contrast between the QR code and background for smooth scanning.
How to Use QR Sharing
During a session, after capturing a photo or video, guests will see a QR code icon next to other sharing options.
They tap the QR icon to generate their unique QR code.
Guests scan the QR code with their phone’s camera.
The session link opens directly in their mobile browser once uploaded.
⚠️ If the upload hasn’t finished yet, guests will see a message saying the session is not yet available. It will load automatically once uploaded.
