Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers to common questions about InvitePix.

?Does InvitePix compress photos like Google Photos?

No. InvitePix keeps original resolution for guest photos and videos. Shared albums often compress to save space. Check Google or Apple settings if you stay there.

?Do guests need a Google or Apple account to upload?

Not with InvitePix. Guests scan your QR and upload in the phone browser. Shared albums usually need an account to contribute.

?Is it easy for older relatives to use?

If they can open the phone camera and tap a link, they can add photos to an InvitePix gallery. Shared albums add account and join steps.
