Pocketbooth Photo Booth for Negative User Reviews
✓ 📷Nice app! I got a free coupon from Starbucks for it. I wouldn't buy it otherwise. A little expensive , but is a great app to take pictures with friends..Version: 2.0
✓ Scam don't buyIf you want to use the effects you need to pay extra, this isn't a dollar game it's a $20 dollar game, that is just as bad as their free version. You are better off just using the iPhone camera, it's better quality, solid camera effects and they don't have to be awkward small pictured strips..Version: 4.1
✓ Okay I guessThis app is an okay way to create quick snapshots of a good time but only offers so many features, maybe they should try and create different styles.Version: 3.0.2
✓ Old photo booth betterThe old simple photobooth app was Better, faster simpler access to free filters. Going into settings each time is silly Meh.Version: 4.2
✓ Fun but not perfectGreat for some fun shots but not perfect. You have to go into the settings to change the style, it’s not something quick. You can’t change the background. The the big that makes me saddest though is the print feature. I have a little 4x6 printer but it can’t do 2 strips on one. It would be nice if it could put on a duplicate copy so it wouldn’t waste so much . Worth .99? Yeah it’s fun..Version: 4.1.1
✓ Does not printMy printer definitely works cause I used another app to print from and print directly from my phone to my air printer. For some reason I could not get my printer to print any of the strips because the app says the photo is 4x6 paper (which it is in the printer) and it will not print. I used my phone to print and set the paper to 4x6 and the picture came out beautifully. Am I missing something here?? Overall if t doesn’t work whatever just Taking a loss on $1..Version: 4.1.1
✓ Love itLife of the party! Makes taking selfies and group photos so fun and I can print out the strips and give it to my friends as mementos! Glitch?! iOS 8 on 6 plus when I wanted to ship a strip it said "file not available (null) please fix ASAP.Version: 3.0.1
✓ 4x6 printIt gives the options for a 4x6 print but when the strips print it’s bigger than anticipated and doesn’t fit and needs multiple pages to print.Version: 4.2
✓ Won’t printI purchased this app in 2012. I loved it for the experience. I never intended to print them. However, I recently purchased the event package so i could print as we we’re taking the pics. When I pull up the setting to choose a printer, nothing happens. you can click on every other option for printing except for “choose a printer”. I want my money back for the event package at the very least. It’s frustrating that you offer that as an option but the feature doesn’t in fact work..Version: 4.2
✓ Photo Booth-can't rotate screen for wide shots. -can't edit anything, can't add text, can't add personal backgrounds or borders. -would be great to be able to enable and disable buttons. People don't need to have access to the device and they can start pushing buttons and browse..Version: 4.2
✓ Was excellent, now frustrated.It was going to be a 5 Star rating as we were having so much fun with it. Now when we hit Start the red light comes on but nothing happens..........what is going on?? Please fix or add update..Version: 1.6.2
✓ Almost AwesomeThis is one of the few apps that will create the retro photo booth-style strips. If you pay $5 more, you can even arrange 2 or 3 strips to be printed on a page. But that’s where the trouble starts. Their AirPrint doesn’t work at all. It doesn’t even try to find printers. Interestingly, you can click ‘more’ and one of the share options is ‘print’ - and that works fine. But you can only print one strip per page that way. So don’t waste $5 and plan on a lot of manual sending to the printer. And don’t expect a any customer support. It doesn’t exist..Version: 4.2
✓ LimitedI am someone who never pays for apps. I bought this app for an upcoming Halloween party where I set up a diy “photo booth” with props and a backdrop. Unfortunately, based on the limited options in the app I wasted my money and won’t be using this app for the party. I wanted to be able to turn my device in order to get a layout profile for the photo strips so that I could fit 2-3 people in a shot and still be close enough to read the words on my props. With this app you can’t do that really. There is no setting for layout so when you manually turn your device to the side it’ll take the photo strip but then it shows up in the viewer upside down which means guests would have to flip the device every time to see if they like it or not. Since each photo is so small on the strip it also doesn’t make for high quality photos because if you edit the photos later on (crop etc.) you can’t blow them up without distorting them (say if you like one photo from a strip). I do like that you can share right from the app and I like the photo strip idea but for a paid app I should be able to select layout. Frankly the app admin responses to similar concerns are really snobby sounding and inflexible. I get that you want it to be “traditional” but listen to your customers and what they need..Version: 4.2
✓ Pretty coolPretty cool if you just want a strip and print. but can’t add custom logo/text to strip for party info for a keepsake ... which is why you’d have a Photobooth in a lot of occasions. Other than that, it’s easy to use, great printing/sharing features!!!.Version: 4.1.1
✓ Not what I expectedBy reading other reviews I was expecting this app to be a lot better than what it was. I thought as I paid for the app that all different filters would be with it but I was wrong. You only get the one filter which is black and white, I'm really disappointed and wish I had bought another app similar to this one..Version: 2.0
✓ MehDoesn't let you select 4 photos from album. That makes it too restrictive.Version: 2.0
✓ It takes 4 pictures.And then you pay MORE money to "Snapseed" them with FAR fewer options. Thank god I got this for free. Just get Snapseed or any other free photo app..Version: 2.0
✓ Puzzled...I'm still trying to figure out what the purpose of this app is? Only 4 options and pay more more and more...for what again??.Version: 2.0
✓ GoodApp is brilliant really fun but disappointed you can not share directly up instagram as other photo apps allow you to do this but that's my only complaint!.Version: 2.1.1
✓ It’s a good start...I’m using this app for a bachelorette party and it seems to work fine. My biggest complaint is the TINY screen frame. It’s on iPad, why can’t it be much bigger to incorporate more into the scene? It’d be much better if it had that option!.Version: 4.1.1
✓ Ordered PrintsFun, but I ordered photo strip prints, but they never came..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Could be perfectFirst issue: on my Zink Happy printer it prints a full foot of paper ($$$) for every shoot even if it's only 5" worth of photos. Second question / issue: can I add a note or tag somewhere? Eg. "Erics party 2019" I paid for the party pack or whatever is called, but I won't be able to use it if these features aren't fixed. Will happily give 5 stars if i can get that. On the plus side, it's a nice simple interface, I love the antique looking pictures and the black rounded frame. I also love that it can be set to automatically print, a must for my use..Version: 4.1.1
✓ OkWould be better if you could also upload pics from library..Version: 1.6.3
✓ PARTY APP-WHAT DID I PAY FOR? Front Facing camera doesn't workI am trying to use this app for my daughters 13th bday., and there is no option for a front facing camera to see if they fit in the screen. I've tried everything and looked in settings, but still couldn't find a way to make it work. So. I thought maybe I needed to buy the $4.99 party pack to allow that feature, but nope...paid for it, and literally there are no noticeable differences. Why did I just spend that money for no extra features?!?.Version: 4.1.1
✓ MePretty poor layout and printing options.Version: 4.4
✓ App crashesBought the cardboard app recommended to download this app to use , pictures won’t load!?.Version: 4.1
✓ This appThis app was really good, but when I wanted more effects etc i had to pay more money. But overall it is a good app and probably worth the money you are paying for it..Version: 2.0
✓ Fine for priceGood basic app. Wish the photo screen was bigger so you can see yourself better when you take the picture. Had to have my iPad positioned fairly close to the backdrop so I didn’t end up getting a lot of my backdrop in it :/ Also wish you could print 2 strips on one 4x6. There’s enough space but it won’t allow for it..Version: 4.1.1
✓ Facebook fail!!!Love the app, only it won't let me publish on Facebook - very annoying!!!.Version: 1.4
✓ Great app but crashes on AirPrint to ios15I have used this app for about 10 events for work and air print worked flawlessly. After the update to iOS 15 AirPrint auto print crashes the app.Version: 4.3.1
✓ Nice app except for one thingDoesn't show what the camera is viewing sometimes.Version: 1.2
✓ OkI got this from Starbucks. Wouldn't have bought it. Seems ok, just wish I could use old/pre-taken photos instead of taking new ones..Version: 2.0
✓ HmmmIt was the best app until I updated it and then it stopped working by not letting me change the camera settings :(.Version: 1.3
✓ Remote triggerJust purchased the Event Mode mainly for the remote trigger - but find that my remote trigger only works the first couple of times and then stops. Btw trigger works without any issues with the camera directly..Version: 4.2
✓ A tad disappointed...This is a brilliant App for those of a certain age that will remember the retro photo booth (now replaced with the identical four picture booth) and amazing value for money... I was however slightly disappointed to find that I'm not able to use existing photo's to make a strip more unique. x.Version: 2.1.1
✓ BooooWith print and ship removed from the app I now remove the app from my iPhone..Version: 3.4
✓ I want to use pre-existing photos!I was so excited about this app. Had so much planned for it, bought it then realized, too late, I can't use pre-existing photos. It's ridiculous. Not happy..Version: 1.6.3
✓ I highly recommend you AVOID this app.Why are some customers enduring crashes when there seem to be so many satisfied customers? Only 6 'strips' of shots were taken before the app started refusing to run past the title screen. It opens, but as soon as I try to take photos or retrieve shots, it closes itself. Not good. Nothing I have tried during the last few months has been able to revert this annoying trend. I shall be deleting the app. And no support. If it were free, then hey ho, but it wasn't worth the money when it did work. Good alternatives exist..Version: 1.6.1
✓ You get what you pay forOver all, the app does what it says. I used it on my iPad setup on a tripod. But people kept changing the settings and changing things, so I didn’t get many great pics. It would be nice to add a few more dime store features to make it usable for people that don’t want all the bells and whistles. Or the extra cost..Version: 4.0.1
✓ Mixed bag4 hours into a trial with this app, and to this point it is very much a mixed bag with most features working as advertised, but cannot MMS to a mobile number. Can email photo strips just fine but cannot MMS. With virtually zero online instruction other than a few FAQ, it is trial and error. Grateful that Tim has responded but regret a lack of progress getting this resolved. Have reviewed iPad settings and not seeing anything amiss. I worked in tech support many years and appreciate the frustrations on both ends when things do not work as advertised. Update: our goal is for attendees to be able to send images to their mobile devices using a mobile number. Tech support has just given a well-detailed explanation of why the iOS is working against our goal, so it seems clear that this is an iOS issue and not an issue with the app. My suggestion is that the developers give more info on the front end to create realistic expectations and avoid frustration, but otherwise I do appreciate the effort..Version: 4.1
✓ Canceling is impossible without access to account tWhy on earth isn’t there an area to access account so one can cancel?!?!? Unless I am missing something on app … access to account is impossible!.Version: 4.4
✓ Just purchasedJust purchased the app for I phone and the air print keeps logging me out - can’t print as it logs out and after taking photos it says error!!! Just purchased the event mode and still hasn’t helped!!! Not impressed at all .....Version: 4.2
✓ Bug?I bought this a while ago now and it is a great fun app, but recently I have noticed that I don't seem to be able to change any of the settings..Version: 1.3
✓ Cool app, wished it did moreI bought this app thinking it would allow me to import photos from my camera roll. ( as most apps allow you to. It does not allow that ..Version: 4.2
✓ Not happyThe extra features like party mode that I purchased do not work on my iPad. I have emailed the app support months ago and have not received a response nor has the app problem been fixed! So poor customer service and bad issues with the app itself..Version: 3.3
✓ Not happyWas a great app until I updated it, now I can't change the settings and it switches itself off. Most disappointed with it now.Version: 1.6.3
✓ Why can’t I have it mailed to me anymore?I loved this app and haven’t used it in years but bragged to a large group of people to all download it because you can get two copies mailed like a post card to you.... and it no longer offers it?!.Version: 4.1.1
✓ Awsome idea appI love photo booths and was more than pumped to find this app... I BOUGHT it and tried it, loved the photo results, BUT I was darn disappointed that I even had to pay to own the photos taken :(.Version: 3.0.2
✓ Purchases did not transferHad to upgrade my iPhone, the photo effects and borders did not transfer to my new phone.Version: 3.3
