It is simple to collect photos from your friends and family using Ente, at the end of a wedding or birthday party or a trip. They don't need an Ente account, or even the Ente app.
Within the link sharing settings for a shared album, simply enable "Allow adding photos".

photos' in link settings Enable 'Allow adding
photos' in link settings](/static/ccefd5823d88f810ff0cb7469b0edb80/d4f27/settings-allow-adding.png)
Once enabled, this will allow anyone with the link to add photos to your album. All your guests need is a web browser. They don't need an Ente account or app.
The experience of adding photos is simple, there is only one, direct, action - Add photos.

We will ask the uploader to enter a name so that for when multiple people add photos, you will be able to see at a glance who added which photo.

The full names are shown within the photo details. This information is stored end to end encrypted, and can only be viewed by people who have access to the photo.
