Guest uploads on AR Host are temporary — they expire after 7 days. If you’re a guest user and forgot to save your images, they’ll be removed automatically after the retention period. But don’t worry — re-uploading is quick and easy.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to re-upload expired images, how to avoid expiration in the future, and how AR Host makes it stress-free. 🚀
📆 Why Do Images Expire on AR Host?
To keep our platform clean and fast, guest uploads are automatically deleted after 7 days. This helps us manage storage efficiently and prioritize users who sign up.
🛑 Expired guest uploads cannot be recovered — even with the original link. That’s why it’s crucial to either download your image before it expires or upload it again.

If your image has expired, just follow these simple steps:
1️⃣ Locate the original image file on your device
2️⃣ Visit https://arhost.tech
3️⃣ Click “Upload” and choose your image
4️⃣ Hit “Start Upload”
