SnapPress Connect is the official companion plugin for SnapPress — the iOS app that lets you bulk upload photos from your iPhone directly to WordPress. This plugin generates a secure QR code so you can pair your WordPress site with the SnapPress app in seconds, no typing required.
Perfect for bloggers, photographers, and content creators who take photos on their iPhone and publish to WordPress.
Why SnapPress?
- Bulk upload — Send 10, 50, or 100+ photos in a single tap (vs. one-by-one via the WP admin)
- Automatic HEIC JPEG conversion — iPhone’s HEIC format is converted on-device so WordPress accepts them instantly. Learn more about HEIC compatibility
- Metadata preserved — EXIF (date, GPS, camera) is kept intact
- Share Extension — Upload straight from Photos, Safari, or any app via the iOS share sheet
- 9 languages — English, 日本語, Español, Deutsch, Português, Français, 한국어, Italiano, 繁體中文
Features of this plugin:
- One-tap setup — Automatically creates a WordPress Application Password and generates a QR code
- Manual mode — Use an existing Application Password to generate a QR code
- Secure — Credential data is only shown on-screen temporarily and can be cleared instantly
- QR codes stay local — they are generated entirely in your browser and never sent anywhere

Privacy:
This plugin sends nothing in the background. QR codes are generated entirely in your browser and never leave it.
The settings screen offers one optional form: if you cannot connect, you can send us your email address, your site URL, your description of the problem, and the diagnostic details shown on screen. It is sent only when you press the button, and the screen shows you the exact text before you send it. We use it only to reply to you.
