The 6 alternatives, reviewed
1. QR Wallthat's us
Best for: Messages, reactions and AI moderation on a wall you keep • Starting price: Free ($0); $10.99/mo; Unlock this wall $14.99 once
QR Wall (that's us) works the same way from the guest's side: scan the QR code on the screen, post photos, written messages and emoji reactions from the browser, no app and no account, and the post lands on the screen in about a second. The differences are in what the host gets: three views to switch between from a phone (Slideshow, Grid, TV), a smart TV paired without a laptop, AI moderation with five sensitivity levels as well as a manual approval queue on Professional, a ZIP that includes every written message, and walls that stay until you delete them.
Pricing: the free wall shows 5 posts on screen at a time and keeps the first 30 posts it receives; later posts reach the wall blurred, and unlocking this wall once ($14.99) opens it for good. Premium ($10.99/month) puts every post on screen and adds guest video (up to 20 seconds, muted on the wall), the TV view, a shareable gallery and a ZIP download of everything; Professional ($19.99/month) adds AI moderation, a manual approval queue and your logo in the QR code. Every plan allows unlimited walls. Honest caveats: EventWall's free plan includes approval before display and QR Wall's free plan has no screening at all; EventWall's Plus takes 60-second videos and ours stop at 15 seconds; and for one event a one-time $39 can be simpler than remembering to cancel a month of Premium.
Strengths
- ✓ Photos, written messages and emoji reactions on one wall
- ✓ AI moderation plus an approval queue on Professional
- ✓ The ZIP includes every written message
- ✓ Walls are kept until you delete them
Watch out for
- – No screening on the free plan
- – Guest video is 15 seconds, on paid plans only
- – Free wall: 5 posts on screen at a time, first 30 kept
2. Glip
Best for: A one-time live photo wall with the biggest free allowance • Starting price: Free (100 uploads); $49 one-time per event
Glip (glip.tv) collects photos and videos by QR code from the phone browser, with no app or account, and shows approved uploads on a live photo wall. The free plan takes 100 uploads from unlimited guests with basic moderation; Unlimited is $49 once per event — one payment, no subscription (as of November 2026). We did not find guest text messages on its site.
Strengths
- ✓ Largest free allowance here: 100 uploads
- ✓ Live wall on the free plan
- ✓ One payment, nothing to cancel
Watch out for
- – No guest text messages found on its site
- – Moderation on Unlimited is described as advanced controls, without saying whether it is AI or manual
3. Kululu
Best for: Wedding photo collection into a shared gallery • Starting price: Limited free plan; one-time Plus and Pro packages (third-party listings: $39 / $99)
Kululu is a QR-code photo and video collector for weddings, parties and corporate events: guests scan, upload from the browser with no app or registration, and everything gathers in a digital album and on a Live Photo Wall slideshow, which comes with every plan. It flags most inappropriate photos and videos automatically, and its Pro plan can hold every upload for approval. Plans are one-time per event; its own page loads prices in a widget, and third-party listings from August 2026 show Plus at $39 and Pro at $99.
Strengths
- ✓ Live Photo Wall on every plan
- ✓ Browser upload, no app
- ✓ Approve-every-upload moderation on Pro
Watch out for
- – Official prices load in a widget — confirm before buying
- – Free plan suits about 10–20 guests
4. EventSnaps
Best for: Every upload approved by hand, archived to Google Drive • Starting price: Free (2 events, 50 uploads each); $29 one-time upgrade
EventSnaps (eventsnaps.app — not EventSnap at eventsnap.co) is a QR photo and video wall that holds every post for manual approval by default. The free plan covers two events with 50 uploads each — later uploads stay blurred until you upgrade — and the Upgraded Event is $29 one-time, with export of approved photos and videos to Google Drive (as of November 2026).
Strengths
- ✓ Manual approval on by default, every plan
- ✓ Google Drive export on the $29 upgrade
Watch out for
- – Free plan caps each event at 50 uploads
- – No written guest messages on the wall
5. GuestCam
Best for: Per-event gallery with live slideshow and audio guestbook • Starting price: $49 per event (Standard); $97 (Premium)
GuestCam is a per-event photo and video collector: guests scan a QR code or open a link and upload from their phone browser, with no app and no account. Standard is $49 one-time per event with unlimited guests, photos and videos, a live slideshow, reactions and comments, an audio guestbook, ZIP downloads and a six-month upload window; Premium at $97 lengthens the windows and adds more galleries and themes (as of October 2026 — verify on their site). Hosts can review and hide uploads, and custom branding is a quoted add-on. For a single wedding it is one of the most complete one-time purchases in the category.
Strengths
- ✓ One-time price per event, unlimited guests
- ✓ Live slideshow plus audio guestbook
- ✓ Long upload window — guests can add photos for months
Watch out for
- – Priced per event — adds up if you host often
- – Custom branding is a quoted add-on
6. Everwall
Best for: One-day events that want per-day pricing and a direct-post form • Starting price: $39–$49 per event day (its two pricing pages differ)
Everwall is an event-first social wall that mixes social posts with a "Web Form (Direct Posting)" included on every plan, so guests can post by QR code without a social account. Self-service is priced per event day — $39 on its main pricing page and $49 (or $399 for 30 days) on its event-wall page, so confirm before buying — and full service is $299 a day plus a $2,500 setup fee, with a free 3-hour trial (as of November 2026).
Strengths
- ✓ Per-day pricing suits a single event
- ✓ Direct-post web form on every plan
- ✓ Long event track record
Watch out for
- – Its two pricing pages quote different day rates
- – Moderation and branding removal have been add-ons
How to choose an EventWall alternative
-
1
Decide whether written messages matter. EventWall and QR Wall show guests' messages on the wall; most per-event photo tools (Glip, EventSnaps, GuestCam) are built around photos and video.
-
2
Match the billing to your calendar. One event: a one-time price (EventWall $39, Glip $49, EventSnaps $29, GuestCam $49) or QR Wall's one-off to unlock this wall. Several events a year: a monthly plan with unlimited walls costs less per event.
-
3
Check how long you keep things. EventWall's free album is deleted after 3 days and Plus after 90; Kululu's free uploads went after 7 days when we checked in September 2026; QR Wall keeps walls until you delete them.
-
4
Decide who approves posts. EventWall, EventSnaps and Kululu Pro use manual approval; QR Wall Professional adds AI screening of text, photos and video before a person sees it.
-
5
If the event also runs on a hashtag, you need an aggregator such as Everwall or Walls.io; none of the direct-upload tools reads social media.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does EventWall cost?
As of November 2026, EventWall is free for one event with 50 photos and messages (uploads open 3 days, album kept 3 days), $39 per event for Plus (500 posts, video, ZIP download, 90 days) and $79 per event for Pro (fair use up to 10,000 posts, a year, logo and brand colours). Prices include VAT, and there is no subscription.
What is the best free EventWall alternative?
Glip has the largest free allowance we found: 100 uploads with a live wall (as of November 2026), but no written messages. QR Wall's free plan shows 5 posts on screen at a time and keeps the first 30, with messages and reactions and no time limit on the wall. Kululu's free plan included its live wall for one 24-hour window when we checked in September 2026.
Is EventWall or QR Wall better for a corporate event?
For a company event where the screen is public, the deciding feature is moderation. EventWall includes manual approval on every plan. QR Wall's Professional plan ($19.99/month) adds AI screening of text, photos and video plus an approval queue, contact capture and your logo in the QR code. If you only need someone to approve posts by hand for one event, EventWall Plus at $39 is the cheaper route.
Does EventWall need an app?
No. EventWall says guests need no app or sign-up: they scan the QR code and post from the phone's browser. QR Wall, Glip, Kululu, EventSnaps and GuestCam work the same way.
Can I download the messages from EventWall?
EventWall's ZIP download (Plus and Pro) contains photos and videos; its FAQ says written messages are not included in the export, as of November 2026. QR Wall's download includes every photo, video and written message in one ZIP, on Premium and Professional or after you unlock this wall once.
