Guest Editable Text

When enabled, the text editing tool lets guests add their names, handle, or a personalized message to their photo before sharing.


How it Works

Unlike other edit tools, this feature is controlled entirely by your layout design rather than a manual "on" switch in the Experience Designer. The tool activates itself the moment the app detects a text layer that has been configured for guest editing.

  • Interaction: When guests reach the edit screen, they can select the text tool and tap directly on the field to bring up the keyboard.

  • Personalization: Participants can type their own names, slogans, or messages to make the photo unique.

  • Auto-Scaling: If a guest's message exceeds the constraints of your predefined text field, the text will automatically shrink to ensure it stays within the set boundaries.


Configuration Settings

Since this tool is linked directly to your layout, you must set it up within the Layout Designer:

  1. Add a Text Layer: Create a new text layer or select an existing one on your canvas.

  2. Toggle Guest Editing On: Within that specific layer’s settings in the Inspector, switch the "Guest Editing" toggle to On.

  3. Automatic Activation: The text setting will now automatically enable itself.

There are no separate configuration settings in the Edit card. To ensure a smooth experience, customize the placeholder text in your layout settings to guide guests (e.g., "Type your name").
