What Pocket unlocks

Manual capture

Tap the shutter for each frame when you want the laugh or pose — not a fixed automatic interval.

Flash Auto / On / Off

Auto for mixed light, On for a consistent pop, or Off when ambient light is enough.

Camera & flash guide →

Built-in lens selection

Pick the built-in lens that fits the room and group without leaving the booth flow.

Lens guide →

Border spacing & color

Control frame gaps and border color — tight and modern, or classic strip spacing.

Apply a black-and-white treatment when you want a timeless finished strip.

Style guide →
