Reveal disposable camera app: price, reviews and how Sealed compares

What Reveal is, from its own pages

We read Reveal’s website (reveal.camera) and its App Store and Google Play listings on 10 November 2026 between 04:53 and 04:59 UTC. Reveal is published by Robin Taillepied, works on iPhone and Android and is available in English, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish. The host creates an album, chooses how many photos each guest can take and schedules the end of the event and the reveal.

Guests join with the album’s QR code or link. According to Reveal’s website, if the app is not installed yet they install it, then reopen the link or scan the code again, and enter their first name: no account is needed. Photos have no editing or filters, each one is credited with the guest’s first name, and a connection is needed to upload them. According to its listing, the host can view and delete photos at any time and decides whether everyone or only the host sees the revealed gallery.

Reveal price

Reveal states that it is free for up to 5 participants and that larger groups pay once per event, according to the number of guests, without a subscription. The App Store lists the in-app purchases. In the United States on 10 November 2026: 10 people with 15 photos each for 7.99 USD, 25 people for 15.99 USD, 50 people for 29.99 USD, 100 people for 59.99 USD and 150 people for 84.99 USD, with other combinations such as 50 people with unlimited photos for 59.99 USD.

In France the same day: 10 people with 15 photos each for 5.99 EUR, 25 people for 11.99 EUR, 50 people for 23.99 EUR, 100 people for 47.99 EUR and 150 people for 65.99 EUR. The App Store shows only part of an app’s purchase catalogue and Google Play prices can differ, so check the price inside the app before paying.

Reveal reviews and ratings

On 10 November 2026 Reveal had 5.0 out of 5 from 84 ratings on the French App Store, 4.8 from 12 ratings on the US App Store and 4.8 from 41 ratings on Google Play in France, where the listing showed more than 10,000 downloads. Those are strong numbers for an app first released in August 2026.

We do not quote individual Reveal reviews here: they belong to Reveal’s users and read better in context on the store. For comparison, Sealed had no displayed rating on either store on the same day.

Where Sealed differs

Sealed keeps the same principle, nobody sees a photo before the opening, but makes different choices. Guests of a shared capsule can shoot from their phone browser after scanning the QR code or opening the link, with nothing to install, and get 27 shots each. People who prefer the app join with a six-character code. Creating and joining capsules is free whatever the size of the group, up to the cap of 30 people and 500 photos per shared capsule. A capsule can also run on a single phone passed around the table.

The host of a Sealed capsule cannot browse or delete photos during the event: the opening time is set at creation and can only be pushed later. After the opening, the host can remove a photo taken by a browser guest, and a photo reported by a member is held back until the host decides. Shared photos are deleted from the Sealed server 30 days after the opening. Sealed Plus, an optional subscription (6.99 USD a month on Google Play in the United States on 10 November 2026), adds two looks and reveal music on capsules kept on one phone. It does not raise the 30-person cap.

Which one to choose

Choose Reveal if you expect more than 30 guests, want to look at and remove photos during the event, or want to keep the revealed gallery to yourself, and if asking guests to install an app is acceptable. Its per-event price is easy to plan for a wedding and there is nothing to cancel afterwards.

Choose Sealed if your group is 30 people or fewer, if some guests will not install anything, or if you want to try the format for free and repeat it every weekend. Whichever you pick, run a five-minute test with two friends on the venue’s network before the event: join, take a photo and check that the reveal time is right on every phone.
