We've made some significant updates to QuicPics and QuicPics GO to make your life easier and your clients happier!

Access to Selfie Check-In from All Images Gallery π²
β
Sometimes you have to (or want to) share the All Images Gallery with an Event Organizer or directly to a group of customers!
β
Our Group-By-Face feature definitely makes navigating an entire All Images Gallery easier for customers, but it still can be tough to find that first image with their face to see the others.
β
This new touch will give people visiting the All Images Gallery easy access to the Event's Selfie Check-In page (when the Event is a Face Matching Event) so that they can receive a link to their personal gallery!
β
- β’ Selfie Check-In Button: A new button is now available when visiting an Event's All Images Gallery.
β - β’ Easy for Groups: When sharing the All Images Gallery link, participants can now Selfie Check-In and receive their personal gallery via text.
β - β’ Automatic Removal: The button will disappear once the Event's face matching period has ended.

β

β
Some new quality of life improvements when it comes to your orders!
β
- β’ Detailed Order History: When previewing an Order from a participant's details page! Includes order contents and subtotal.
β - β’ Participant Management Integration: An Order column has been added to the Participant Management page, so you can easily spot who has ordered and who has not.
β - β’ Daily Order Counts: Hover over each day's column in the Event Management page's sales chart to see the order count for that hovered day!

β
Import Backgrounds and Overlays from Past Events π¨

Capture App Version 4.5 Update (for iOS)π±
