> If you run an event with hundreds or thousands of attendees you don't want them all emailing or SMSing photos to you.
A dedicated email address for the event, using twilio for sms/mms[0], watching/following a #hashtag thru something like hootsuite will work and is already used. It also does not require the users do download any Apps at all.
*Though, my previous comment was not intended to criticize or compare you to other services, beyond the scope of reaffirming what apple has already told you, you're application is too simple in terms of being light on features.
As a matter of fact, I am also reaffirming that there is potential to the idea. It's likely the simple fact that we just have a different definition of what would be considered simple.
From my perspective an application like this has two different sets of users, both of whose needs should be met. The business customer and the app user, what you explained is truly simple for the business customer but the success of those users depends on the usage/adoption by the app users. If you're saying that the needs of the later group should/can be avoided or overlooked then we are truly coming from different places. :)
Also in regards with:
> Or if you run a travel agency and want to provide a way for people to share photos after their group vacation your suggestion won't work there either.
In my previous comment I mentioned that you could allow the app users to sort, tag and share photos(point 4 under the second list), if a tag/category was shared by the user the challenge for the travel agency would be solved. If I were to implement this I would:
-> first make the travel agency share the folder/link-folder with the people in the tour
->-> If the user shared a 'link' under this folder it would
->->-> the pics/links get shared with other users of the folder and the tour operator
->->->-> As an added feature the app user could select their terms for sharing ex. share with operator only etc.
