Creating a New Event

Every great booth session starts with an event. Events are how you organize your photo booth gigs — each one gets its own gallery and settings. Think of it as a container for everything that happens at a specific occasion.

How to Create an Event

From the Events tab, tap the + button
Enter an Event Title (e.g., "Jessica & David's Wedding")
Optionally add a Subtitle (e.g., "June 15, 2026 — The Grand Hall")
Optionally set a Cover Image — this shows up in your events list and can be used for branding
Tap Create

Your event is now ready to go live.

What Happens After You Create an Event?

Once created, you can:

Go live — Start the booth for this event
View gallery — See all captured photos and videos
Check statistics — Track captures, shares, and prints
Edit details — Tap the three dots (⋯) on the event card to edit the title, subtitle, or cover image

Templates, effects, and sharing options are configured globally from their own tabs and from Settings — not inside individual events. Set them up once and they apply to all your events.

You can create as many events as you need. Running three events this weekend? Create three events. It's that simple.

Tips for Naming Events

Use descriptive names — "Smith Wedding" is better than "Event 1"
Include the date if you run recurring events — "Corporate Gala — March 2026"
Your guests won't see the event name (unless you add it to your template), so name it for your own organization
