Create Event Screen

As the release date fast approaches I thought I would start going over some of the screenshots of the app.   I wanted to start off by reviewing the create event screen.  This is the screen that you will use to create your event.  The screen should default to the current date and time.  You just need to enter the name of the event and specify when you want your event to start.  There is also a private toggle to decide if you want your gallery to be searched by your users online.  If privacy is on you or anyone else can not search for your gallery on phototwine.  The website allows you to share and view your gallery in numerous ways in addition to order prints and photo gifts.  However if you want it private and still want a link to the online gallery just email info@phototwine.com and request your link with your event code and we will send you your private link. You can then share it with whoever you choose.  





After you decide when to create your event and hit the submit button the in app purchase screen pops up which allows you to choose how long your event will be.  This will obviously depend on what type of event you are having.  For instance if you are having a wedding you may want to create a 24 hour event in order to capture the whole day.  You may want to start early in the morning to capture everyone getting ready to the early morning hours of the reception.  Or start in the afternoon which will give everyone a little extra time the next day to add photos.  Phototwine does not limit users that join or the photos that are uploaded.  It is truly unlimited.  Or you may choose the free one hour event to capture all of the photos taken at your child's birthday party from everyone taking photos.  It is truly affordable.  Other apps provide this service for upwards of $249.00! 







Finally, once you select the length of time you want for your event your access codes will will be displayed.  There will be two codes.  The event code is yours to give out to a special someone to monitor your events.  You are the admin by default which gives you the ability to delete photos you may not want everyone to see.  Unfortunately there are people that may submit inappropriate photos.  If you feel you may be to busy, you can share the admin code to give them the Jedi force to make those decisions on your behalf.  There are many ways you can easily share your codes.  You may copy and paste to add it to a message, or share your code on facebook, or email it to anyone you want to join.  Once they enter the code in the join field the event will start when you specify.  Remember that even if your event does not start for another 2 weeks the event will still be added to everyones event screen.  There is nothing else to do than to wait until the party starts!
