A WedUploader alternativethat does more than fill a folder.
WedUploader sends guest photos straight into your own Google Drive. Picaggo gives you a shared gallery instead, with face search, WhatsApp and Smart Sync, and on paid plans can still copy everything to your Drive.
The honest version.
What WedUploader does well, and where it falls short.
Where WedUploader is good
- Photos go straight into your own Google Drive, so no other company keeps them.
- The basic plan is free, with no app for guests.
- One premium payment covers all your albums and adds a gallery, guestbook, voicemail and slideshow.
Where it falls short
- Space is limited by your own Drive. A free Google account has 15GB, shared with Gmail.
- No face search, so guests scroll to find themselves.
- Every upload is manual: guests pick their photos and send them.
