Event Organisers

Does it work on Android & iOS?

Yes, Disposable works on both Android and iOS, and even Windows phones. There’s no need to download anything; just go to www.disposable.app to create your event's disposable camera, or if you're an event guest simply scan an event’s QR code to load the disposable camera.

How do I create a disposable camera for my event?

Three simple steps:

  1. Create Event: Create an event at www.disposable.app with your event title and dates.
  2. Print QR Code: On your event's dashboard, download the QR code image; this is ready to print on A5, A4 or A3 posters, flyers and even tent cards for tables. Once printed, simply place them around your event venue for guests to see.
  3. Share Album: All of your guests' photos will be captured in your event photo album. You can view the album during or after your event, and you can share it at any time.

How do my guests use the app?

Once you've placed your event's QR code around your venue, guests simply:

  1. Scan: Guests scan your QR code to load your event's disposable camera, absolutely no downloads required, and works on Android or iOS.
  2. Snap: As guests take photos, they are captured in your event's photo album. By default they can only take 10 photos each; you can edit this limit in your event's settings.
  3. Dispose: Once they've taken their photos, guests simply close the app to dispose of it. The event organiser can then view & share the event album whenever they like.

How do I change the 10 photo limit per guest?

On your event's dashboard, simply head to the settings page to edit the photo limit each guest can take.

How much does it cost to use?

Do we all get to see the photos?

Of course! The organiser can share the photo album immediately with anyone they choose.

The photos are uploaded straight away and can be viewed when the organiser decides to share it.

The Environment

Is this more eco-friendly than a disposable camera?

Traditional disposable cameras, polaroids and their film are not only made of non-biodegradable and non-renewable materials, they’re often only used once and then make their way into landfill or are incinerated. The polystyrene-acrylic cases remain in waste dumps for 1,000 years before degrading. Our solution cuts this out with our digital version of the disposable camera meaning absolute no waste.
