FAQ

Questions people ask us

If yours isn't here, get in touch and we'll answer it.

Is Papparazzi free?

Yes. Making a link, sending photos and receiving them costs nothing.

Can the person I send a photo to find out it was me?

Not from us. We don't ask senders for a name, email or account, and we don't attach anything that identifies you to the photo. Keep in mind the photo itself might give you away, like a picture only you could have taken.

How long do photos stay?

Six hours from the moment they're sent. After that they're removed from your inbox and deleted from our storage.

What kind of photos can I send?

JPEG, PNG or WEBP files up to 10 MB. Nudity, harassment, threats and anything hurtful aren't allowed.

Someone sent me something nasty. What do I do?

Open it and tap Report, then Delete. Reports help us spot abuse. You can also stop sharing your link, or change your username to get a new one.

Do I need an account to send a photo?

No. Only people who want to receive photos need to sign up.

Can I save a photo I receive?

Yes, there's a Save button on each photo. Please don't repost something sent to you privately without the sender's okay.

How old do I have to be?

You need to be at least 13, or older if your country requires it.
