Common questions.

Everything you need to know about Festoso before your first event.

Setup and joining.

How do guests join? +

Guests scan the event QR code and enter the password — no account required. On iPhone they can tap an App Clip card and join without installing anything. On Android or any phone they join through a web page.

Do guests need to create an account? +

No. Guests join anonymously by default. They can optionally add a display name and email for photo-finding features.

How long does setup take? +

Under a minute. Name your event, set a password, and share the QR. That's it.

Does Festoso work for non-wedding events? +

Yes — any private event works: birthday parties, corporate events, product launches, fundraisers, family reunions.

Tiers and billing.

What does the Free tier include? +

100 photos and videos, up to 10 guests, 7-day retention. No credit card required.

What is Event Plus vs Event? +

Event Plus ($59) includes AI content moderation bundled at no extra cost. Event ($34) has the same media and retention limits but AI moderation is a $5 add-on.

Do you offer refunds? +

All sales are final. If something went wrong on our end, email support@festoso.app and we'll make it right.

Photos, bursts, and videos up to 2 minutes. Free tier: 200 MB per video. Paid tiers: 500 MB per video.

Can I download everything? +

Data and privacy.

Who can see event photos? +

Anyone with the event groupId can view photos via the slideshow. Event passwords protect the organizer dashboard and upload access.

Can guests delete their photos? +
