Joining an Event and RSVP

Before the event: RSVP

During the 90 days before the scheduled event date, opening the event leads to an event-themed RSVP screen. It displays event information such as the name, description, date/time, and location.

1. Review the event details.
2. Confirm your name or nickname. If you used a personalized invitation link, your name is already filled in and cannot be edited on this screen.
3. Choose Yes, Maybe, or No for attendance.
4. Where offered, enter the number of attendees including yourself.
5. Tap Send my reply.

A themed confirmation screen acknowledges the response and indicates that the event will go live later. Guests can return when the event is live.

When the event is live

Joining with a generic QR code or event code: Collect displays a welcome screen asking for a name or nickname. Enter it and tap Continue to open the Collect home screen. No RSVP step is required.

Joining with a personalized invitation link: A preregistered guest goes directly to the Collect home screen without additional prompts and is treated as attending.

Keeping in touch

Guests joining through open invitations should consider adding their email address and phone number under Settings → Your Details. This gives the organizer a way to share curated photo album links after the event.

See Event availability for the live access window.
