Gathrly Is Now on the App Store — The iOS App Is Live

Today we are relieved and delighted: the Gathrly iOS app is officially on the App Store and ready to download. Thank you to everyone who waited — this is the easiest way yet to collect event photos from every single guest.

What Is Gathrly?

Gathrly is a shared event photo gallery. You create one gallery for your event — a wedding, engagement, birthday, kenduri, or corporate function — and your guests upload their photos straight into it. Every memory lands in one place instead of being scattered across dozens of phones.

How It Works

  • Download the Gathrly app and create a gallery for your event.
  • Share the QR code — put it on tables, invitation cards, or up on a screen.
  • Guests scan it and upload photos straight from their phones.
  • Download everything as a single ZIP once the event wraps up.

Guests never download an app and never create an account. They just scan the QR and upload through their phone browser — so it works for everyone, including older relatives and Android users.

Why We Built This

Every Malaysian event ends with the same question: "Do you have any photos?" The photographer captures the formal moments, but the most honest ones — laughter at the dinner table, an old friend greeting another, unplanned candids — live on your guests' phones. We wrote more about that in guest photos versus a hired photographer.

If you are just starting out, our guide on how to collect event photos walks through it step by step, and the complete guide to QR code photo sharing explains why a QR beats a WhatsApp group every time.

Start Today

Download the app from the App Store and create your first gallery in minutes. You can start free and upgrade only when you actually need to.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do guests need to download the Gathrly app?

No. Guests simply scan the QR code and upload photos through their phone browser. No app, no account sign-up.

Is there an Android app?

For now the host app is iOS only, so you need an iPhone to create and manage a gallery. Your guests, however, can use any phone — Android included — because they upload through the browser.

How much does Gathrly cost?

You can start free. Paid plans are a one-time purchase per event — there is no monthly subscription. See the Pricing page for a full comparison of every plan.

Who can see the photos in my gallery?

Only people who have your gallery link or QR code. Galleries are not indexed by search engines, and you as the host can remove any photo.
