How do my 3 free events work?
Booth.Events and Shared.Gallery give you three free events so you can test things out before subscribing. These events are fully functional, but they do come with a few limits.
What’s included in a free event?
Each free event includes:
1. Gallery access for 7 days
After seven days, the gallery expires and all photos and videos are permanently deleted. There’s no way to recover expired content, so be sure to download anything you want to keep before the expiry date.
2. Up to 100 photos or videos
Each free event can hold a maximum of 100 media items. If you go over this limit, the app will continue to function, but new uploads will stop. You’ll still be able to print or use AirDrop, and photos/videos will be saved to the iPad’s Camera Roll.
3. Limited SMS sharing
Free events allow text message sharing, but only to supported countries (most of continental North America is included).
You can check supported countries here.
4. One iPad license
Free events can be run on one iPad. If you have additional iPads or want to use iPhones at the same time, you’ll need to upgrade your plan.
5. Online support
You’ll still have access to our Help Center and support team if you run into any issues.
What happens if I hit the limit?
You’ll receive a clear warning in the app and by email when you’re getting close to the 100-photo or video limit.
If you go over the limit during a live event:
- You can still take photos and videos.
- AirDrop and printing will continue to work.
- Uploads to the gallery (and email/SMS sharing) will stop.
- All new photos and videos will still be saved locally to the iPad’s Camera Roll.
- Any pending shares will queue in the app and can be uploaded later if you purchase a plan or upgrade.
To view and manage those uploads, go to the iPad app’s home screen and open the Uploads section.
How do I upgrade?
To continue beyond the free limits and unlock full event features (including unlimited uploads and longer gallery storage), go to the Billing page on the Booth.Events Dashboard and choose a plan.
