How do I turn my iPad into a photo booth?
Install Photo Booth Studio, pick or design a photo strip template, mount your iPad on a tripod or stand at chest height, and turn on Event Mode. Guests tap the screen to take photos, then print or share their strips instantly — no extra hardware needed beyond an optional AirPrint printer. Learn more →
What is the best photo booth app for a wedding?
Photo Booth Studio is built for weddings: pick an elegant wedding template or design one with your names and date, lock the screen with Event Mode, and let guests print keepsake photo strips or share them by iMessage, WhatsApp, email, or AirDrop. Learn more →
How do I print photo strips from an iPhone or iPad?
Photo Booth Studio prints directly to any AirPrint-compatible printer on the same Wi-Fi network. Guests tap Print after their session and get a physical photo strip in seconds — no cables or computer required. Learn more →
Is a photo booth app cheaper than renting a photo booth?
Dramatically. Rentals typically run $400–$1,200 for a few hours, while Photo Booth Studio runs on the device you already own — even its Pro subscription costs a small fraction of one rental, so a full DIY setup with stand, backdrop, and printer comes in far under a single booking. Learn more →
Can I design my own photo booth template?
Yes. The built-in designer lets you create custom photo strips with multiple layouts, hundreds of stickers, and a large font catalog — or start from dozens of premade templates for birthdays, weddings, and graduations. Learn more →
How do I stop guests from leaving the photo booth app?
Turn on Event Mode. It locks Photo Booth Studio behind a password so guests can shoot, print, and share, but can't exit the booth screen, change settings, or open anything else on your device. Learn more →
Does Photo Booth Studio work on iPhone or just iPad?
Both. Photo Booth Studio runs on iPhone and iPad (iOS 15.6+), with portrait and landscape support on iPad. The same templates, AirPrint printing, and Event Mode work on iPhone. Learn more →
How much does Photo Booth Studio cost?
It's free to download and try — build your template and run test sessions at no cost. Photos on the free tier include a Booth Studio watermark; the Pro subscription (monthly or yearly) removes it and unlocks every feature, for less than one hour of a booth rental. Get the app →
