Managing your event
Event Recaps, Photo Sharing, and Moderation
After closing an event, write a thank-you recap, request attendee photos, approve submissions, and share the finished page. Set an expiration or close photo uploads.
The event does not end when it ends
After you close an event, recap tools unlock. A recap is a shareable page where you thank everyone, tell the story of how it went, and collect the photos that are otherwise scattered across a dozen phones. When the event date passes we email you to close it and start that recap, then follow up a day later if none exists yet.
To show guests what to bring or make before the event, add a reference photo to a signup slot.

Close the event and start your recap
You can close from the event page or from the locked recap screen. Then write a title, an intro, and the story. Recaps start as drafts, so you can polish before anyone sees it.

Collect photos from attendees
Send photo requests and attendees upload straight from their phones through a private link. No shared drive, no email attachments.

Review and publish
Approve or reject each submitted photo. Only approved photos appear on the recap page.

Send the recap to attendees
One click emails every confirmed attendee an invitation to view the published recap.
Photo submissions with moderation built in
Attendees never need an account to contribute: their photo upload link is private and tokenized, just like their manage link. Every submission lands in a review queue where you approve or reject it before it becomes visible, and the event creator gets a daily heads-up email when photos are waiting. On an organization event, other organizers can opt in to those emails from the recap page. You can add your own photos too. Large camera photos are automatically resized to 1280px on the longest edge and saved as JPEGs at 80% quality before uploading. There is no file-size or megapixel limit on your original photo.

Sharing the finished recap
A published recap lives on its own page tied to your event. Send invitations to confirmed attendees from the recap manager, and set an optional expiration date if you want the page to retire itself after a season. You can toggle photo submissions off at any point once you have enough.
