A Modern Take on the Photo Scavenger Hunt
Looking for an alternative to the classic list-and-race format? Snaphunts gives every player their own photo challenges and opens one shared album at the end.
How a Snaphunt works
One person creates the hunt, chooses the setting and group size, and sets the reveal time. Players open the shared link or enter the six-character code in their browser, pick their name and protect their place with a four-digit PIN.
Each player receives their own photo challenges and completes them with their phone camera, three shots per challenge. Nothing is visible, not even to the host, until the album opens for everyone at once.
Who is a photo challenge for?
It works for couples, friends, families, wedding guests and work teams. The format stays the same wherever you take it: notice something, interpret a challenge, capture your version of it.
Most groups use it for a travel photo challenge, a party or night out, or a date night.
- Trips and city breaks
- Birthdays and nights out
- Date nights and anniversaries
- Weddings and reunions
- Company offsites and team activities
Different challenges beats a shared photo folder
A shared folder collects photos people were going to take anyway. A photo challenge gives the group a reason to look around and capture things they would have walked straight past.
And because no two players get the same challenges, the album is not six versions of the same four photographs. Same adventure, completely different camera rolls.

Frequently asked questions
- How is this different from a traditional scavenger hunt?
- A traditional scavenger hunt sends everyone after the same list. Snaphunts deals each player their own photo challenges, so the group explores together but nobody is racing for the same shot.
- How many people can play?
- Anywhere from two people to a large party. The create flow supports between 1 and 200 player places.
- Can the host see photos during the hunt?
- No. Photos stay sealed for everyone, the host included, until the reveal time.
