# DropSnaps vs Guestpix

> Guestpix and DropSnaps both collect wedding guests' photos and videos from a QR code in the phone's browser, with no app or account, and both keep the original files, run a live slideshow and include a guest book. Guestpix adds digital invitations, RSVPs and a video guest book, and shows prices in US dollars unless you switch; DropSnaps is priced in pounds with VAT included.

We make DropSnaps. Everything about Guestpix comes from its own website (https://guestpix.com), checked on 7 October 2026 as a UK visitor sees it. Prices and plans change, so check before you buy. https://dropsnaps.com/compare/guestpix
