An album is not an archive. Once the party is over, the photos should live somewhere you control. Here is how to bring them home โ and store them so they still exist in ten years.
As the owner you can download every photo and video as one archive in original resolution. Use a computer rather than a phone for large albums โ downloading and unpacking is faster, and you avoid filling up the phone's storage.
Guests can open a photo in the gallery and save it to their phone. That way they keep exactly the photos they care about without downloading the entire album.
One copy on the computer and one in the cloud or on an external drive. It sounds excessive until the phone goes missing. Name the folder with the event and date so it can be found again without browsing.
If you have set a deletion date, get the archive in good time. Once the album is deleted the photos cannot be restored, and the QR code stops working.
No. The archive contains the photos in the resolution they were uploaded in.
Guests can save individual photos. Downloading the full album is reserved for the owner.
Yes. Both photos and video clips are part of the combined download.
Download from a computer on a stable network. Very large albums can take a few minutes to package.
