Frequently asked questions

Does Froozbooth run on iPad?

Not yet. The booth runs today on a Windows 10 / 11 PC or tablet. An iPhone and iPad app is in the works, with the same license, and a beta will open first to rental companies who sign up. The preparation dashboard already opens in any browser, iPad included.

Are there per-event fees?

No. Every plan, from €139 a year, covers all your events, with no limit, on two machines.

Do guests get their photos by QR and email?

Yes. On-screen QR, email and the online gallery are included. Without a network, emails wait and go out when the wifi is back.

Can I try before I buy?

Yes, 15 days with no credit card. A watermark marks the photos during the trial.

How much does Simple Booth cost?

Simple Booth is sold by subscription: plans start from $9 a week and go up to $149 a month for Pro and $249 a month for Select, as listed in September 2026. Weekly, monthly and yearly options exist, so check their current pricing page. Froozbooth costs €139 a year, €14 a month or €349 once.

Is Simple Booth worth it for a photo booth rental company?

For a rental company working every weekend, it is expensive: Simple Booth Pro adds up to $5,364 over three years and Select to $8,964. Froozbooth costs €349 to €417 over the same period, with two machines, gallery, QR and email included. Simple Booth is worth it if you sell brand activations that need its marketing tools.

What is Simple Booth HALO?

HALO is Simple Booth’s iPad photo booth app, aimed at agencies and brand activations. It focuses on event marketing: lead capture, AI, compliance tools and team management. Froozbooth serves a different job: Windows booths with a Canon or Nikon DSLR and a dye-sub printer, run by rental companies.

Can I use a DSLR and a dye-sub printer with Simple Booth?

Not natively: Simple Booth runs on iPad and uses the iPad camera, and printing depends on your setup. Froozbooth is built for that hardware: native Canon and Nikon control, DNP and Citizen dye-sub printers, and any printer installed on Windows.

Does Froozbooth offer lead capture and AI like Simple Booth?

AI yes, lead capture no. Froozbooth makes AI portraits, paid per portrait with prepaid credits, but no advanced marketing data capture. It focuses on running Windows booths: capture, green screen, printing, QR, email and gallery, with an editable GDPR consent text and a survey whose answers print on the photo. If lead capture is central to your offer, Simple Booth is made for that.

Does Simple Booth host photos in Europe?

Simple Booth does not clearly state where guest photos are stored. Froozbooth hosts them in Paris, on AWS eu-west-3, under GDPR, and the public gallery can be locked with a code. For a European operator, that means you can tell clients exactly where their guests’ photos are.
