Allow members to upload photos from events directly from the app. Members use their own social media platform to confirm post. This is a great way to keep the buzz going. Collect pictures from members for your newsletter/social media account etc. Give incentives for sharing, “We will post best image to our gallery if selected”.
Description
The Email Photo feature is used to share photos directly through the app. Users can email photos to a business directly through this feature. For instance, if you create an Email Photo feature called “Party Cam” for your club app, users could email photos of their favorite moments the weekend, which the business can post on their Facebook page. Users can take a photo or send one from their device’s gallery in just a few steps.
Within the feature, the Recent Photos section shows users which pictures they’ve previously emailed. These photos are only visible to them, and are stored locally on their device, meaning no one else has access to them, including the app creator. They can’t be removed from the feature unless the app is uninstalled then reinstalled.
Great for these industries:
- Conference
- Bar & Club
- Band or Musical Artist
Monetization ideas:
- You can create a contest or sweepstake that requires the app user to send a photo through the Email Photo feature.
- Companies that provide custom-priced services (ex. a house painting service) can have the app user send a photo so they can provide an estimate on the service cost.
