Pocketbooth review

Pocketbooth recreates the strip from an old coin-operated booth on an iPhone or iPad. It takes a series of photos a few seconds apart and lays them out as a vintage-style strip, with templates for birthdays, weddings and graduations and your own fonts, colors and layouts. Strips can be printed through AirPrint, emailed, posted to social media or saved to the camera roll. The app is free to download, and the US App Store lists a weekly premium at $4.99, monthly premium at $19.99 or $39.99 and a yearly option at $99.99, plus event and filter packs. That makes it the cheapest paid choice for a single weekend party. It is not an event platform: the listing mentions no SMS sharing, QR codes, online galleries, guest data capture or DSLR support, so weddings with dozens of guests are better served by LumaBooth or Simple Booth. It holds a 4.5 rating from 2.2K ratings. We compared documented features and published prices.
