Try the guest path on a phone
Can a guest understand where to go? Is the invitation clear about whether they are joining a group or opening a public gallery? Try the full path on a device that is not signed in as the organiser. A tool can look elegant in an admin demo and still be confusing for the people who receive the photos.
Ask someone outside the project to find one image of themselves. Their hesitation is more useful than a polished feature checklist.
Examine roles and consent
Look for separate viewer and contributor access. Decide whether face discovery is optional, how consent is explained, and whether a person can remove their face reference. Ask what happens with public links: can they expire, and can the owner revoke them?
No single access setting suits every event. The tool should let the owner make a deliberate choice.
Test the messy last mile
Upload another photo after the first batch has been processed. Does the system handle it without starting over? Then inspect a personal gallery and see how easy it is to notice a wrong match.
FaceSort supports event groups, invited contributors, consent-based My photos, incremental processing, and expiring or revocable person-gallery links. It is built for discovery and sharing, while you keep using your own tools for photo selection and editing.
Evaluate the real guest journey, not only the feature list. Test invitations on a phone, roles and consent, a late upload, and a personal match gallery. A platform earns its place when those everyday moments feel clear and controllable.
