How do I send photos as MMS/SMS?

In short

Booth Junkie can let your guests send their photo straight to their own phone by SMS or MMS.

  • Switch on Allow messages via SMS/MMS under Admin Panel → Sharing → SMS.
  • Texts go through Booth Junkie’s own SMS service, which needs an active Premium, or through your own Twilio account.

Set it up

  1. Open the Admin Panel and navigate to the Sharing tab, followed by the SMS tab.

  2. Switch on Allow messages via SMS/MMS.

    Result: With just that switched on, texts go through Booth Junkie’s own SMS service.

Premium: Booth Junkie’s own SMS service needs Premium

The message is sent either through Booth Junkie’s own SMS service, which needs an active Premium, or through your own Twilio account. To send through your own Twilio account instead, with your own message wording, see Customising the SMS settings.

What guests see

Once enabled, guests are offered an SMS/MMS option after their photo is taken, alongside whichever other sharing methods you’ve turned on. They enter their number on the on-screen keypad, and the photo is sent as a link, through Booth Junkie’s own SMS service or, with Use custom Twilio settings on, from the number on your Twilio account.
