FAQ

What is SnapPress?

SnapPress is an iOS app that lets you bulk upload photos from your iPhone directly to your WordPress media library.

Is the QR code safe?

The QR code contains your site URL, username, and an Application Password. It is generated entirely in your browser and is never sent to any external server. Click “Clear” after scanning to remove the code from the screen.
