All features
After inactivity, return to the camera view so the booth is ready for the next guest. Requires ZillaBooth Pro.
🔄 Auto-Restart
Keep the line moving. After a guest’s session completes and the collage is displayed, Auto-Restart automatically returns the app to the camera view after a period of inactivity — so the booth is always ready for the next person without any manual intervention.
How it works: After a collage is displayed, a 5-minute inactivity timer begins. If no interaction occurs — no tapping, no sharing, no navigation — the app automatically returns to the camera view and is ready for the next guest. Any user interaction (tapping the screen, viewing settings, etc.) resets the timer.
How to enable: Open ZillaBooth Settings → Pro → Auto-Restart and enable the toggle. No additional configuration is needed.
Timeout duration: The inactivity timeout is set to 5 minutes (300 seconds). This gives guests adequate time to view and share their collage while ensuring the booth resets promptly if someone walks away.
Best for: Unattended or lightly attended photo booths. Combined with Keep Awake (Guided Access), Auto-Restart ensures your booth stays operational and ready throughout the entire event — even if a guest forgets to tap “Done” or walks away mid-session.
