Wedding photo-sharing apps: the full comparison
Many apps let guests share their wedding photos via QR code: WedShoots, POV and QrGuest among them. They don't all cover the same scope: some handle photos only, others also centralize invitations and the guestbook.

Apps that do one thing, well
WedShoots (by Mariages.net) and POV focus on a single need: collecting the photos guests take during the night. That's effective for that specific use, but it leaves out the rest of the organization: invitations, RSVPs, the seating chart.
When to choose an all-in-one tool like QrGuest
If photo sharing is your only need, a dedicated app can be enough. If you also want to manage invitations, RSVPs and your seating chart without juggling several tools, QrGuest brings it all together in one place, including photo sharing.
