How Boothy works

From the first clickto the gallery.

There are two ways in. Download the software and try it right away – no account needed. Or sign in to the dashboard with a magic link and walk the whole way to the finished photo gallery. Just scroll down, we will take you by the hand.

  1. Photo booth

    Download & launch

    Download Boothy and launch the app. A short assistant asks for language, event name, design and camera – a few clicks later your start screen is ready.

    • For Windows
    • Webcam or DSLR
    • Ready in under a minute
  2. Photo booth

    Try it free – no account

    Trial mode unlocks every premium feature for 10 test photos, without signing up. When you are ready for your first event, the booth shows a pairing code – that is how it joins your dashboard.

    • 10 test photos
    • All premium features
    • No credit card
  3. Dashboard

    Sign in with a magic link

    Open the dashboard, enter your email address and click the link in your inbox – done, no password at all. For now everything is empty: no booth, no events. Let us change that.

    Use the email address you buy your licence with, or already bought it with. That address is how Boothy connects your purchase to your dashboard.

    • No password
    • Anyone can sign in
  4. DashboardPairing code from the booth

    Buy a licence & pair your booth

    Buy the licence with the same email address – it shows up in your dashboard right away. Then pair the booth: it shows a code like K7Q-9XF and a QR code. Type the code under “Pair a booth”, confirm on the booth, assign the licence – the booth unlocks itself.

    • Scan the QR code or type the code
    • Confirm on the booth
    • Unlocks automatically
  5. Dashboard

    Set it up with Live Edit

    Under “Live Edit” you change the settings of the running booth without touching it: event name, colours, font, layouts, printing and sharing – from your laptop or your phone. There is nothing to save.

    The dashboard changes, the booth follows

    This is where both paths meet. You change the event name, the title colour or the font in the dashboard – and seconds later the booth shows it on its start screen. Try it right here.

    Try it

    You are the dashboard.

    Change the event name, title colour or font – the booth on the right follows live.

  7. Dashboard

    New event & customer link

    Create an event in the planner, say “Wedding Sarah & Tim”, and generate the customer link with one click. Send it to your customer – and they design their booth themselves: occasion, colours, event name, layout and games.

    • One link per event
    • Customers design it themselves
    • Editable until shortly before
  8. Dashboard

    In the calendar – designed by your customer

    Once your customer is done, the event sits in the calendar with their design. You see at a glance which events are complete and where answers are still missing – without a single phone call.

    • Status at a glance
    • No back and forth
  9. Dashboard

    The booth shows what your customer picked

    The preview shows the start screen exactly the way your customer designed it. On the event day Boothy puts these settings onto the assigned booth automatically.

    • Exact preview
    • Automatic on the day
  10. Photo booth

    Event day: set up & go

    Set up the booth, switch it on, connect it to the internet. Boothy recognises the event of the day and loads your customer’s settings – design, texts and layout are there at once.

    • Switch on, that’s it
    • Settings arrive by themselves

    Final touches

    The last check on site: aim the camera, take a test shot, check the printer and the guest Wi-Fi. All in the booth’s admin area – reached through the top-left corner of the start screen.

    • Printer
    • Guest Wi-Fi

    Guests take photos

    Tap, pose, laugh. Guests take their photo home as a print, grab it on their phone via QR code or turn it into something new with an AI filter.

    Off to the Boothy Cloud

    By the end of the event at the latest, the booth uploads every photo to the Boothy Cloud. The paths meet again here: in the dashboard the pictures sit in the cloud gallery, sorted by event.

    • Automatic upload
    • Sorted by event
  14. Dashboard

    Gallery link to your customer

    One click creates the gallery link for your customer. They and their guests see every photo in the browser – view, download, share. No app, no sign-in.

    • No app
    • No sign-in
    • Download every photo

    Everyone’s happy

    Your customer has their memories, the guests have their photos – and you wrapped up an event without chasing anyone on the phone. The booth is ready for the next one.

  16. Dashboard

    Deleted after 30 days at the latest

    Privacy built in: 30 days after the event at the latest, Boothy deletes the photos from the cloud automatically and the gallery link expires. A week before, Boothy reminds you by email so nothing gets lost.

    • GDPR compliant
    • Reminder 7 days ahead
    • Automatic
  17. Meanwhile the booth sits in storage. It does not need to run for the planning.

  18. On the day it fetches everything itself – no USB stick, no handover.

  19. In the dashboard the booth is online now, the event shows as “Live”.

  20. The booth was packed away long ago – ready for the next event.
