What is AirDrop and QR Code Sharing?
AirDrop Sharing allows guests to instantly send captures to themselves and others without needing an email address, phone number, or even an internet connection.
QR Code Sharing enables guests to share their captures without the need for physical interaction with the booth.
After the session, a QR code appears on the screen. Guests can scan it with their phones, which directs them to a website where they can enter their email address or phone number to receive their capture.
What To Know
When To Use AirDrop
AirDrop only works with Apple devices (such as iPhones or iPads), and guests must be physically close to the photo booth or Sharing Station to share their captures.
IMPORTANT: Guests will not be prompted to complete a survey when sharing via AirDrop. If you're using the Survey feature, it will only appear when guests share via Email, Text, or QR Code.
AirDrop Sharing does not collect guests' data (such as emails, phone numbers, or survey responses). If you're using Analytics or Surveys, we recommend enabling another sharing method alongside AirDrop.
How To

AirDrop Codes
A one-time AirDrop Code is required for AirDrop Sharing with Apple devices on iOS 26.2, iPadOS 26.2, and later operating system versions. This is an Apple security feature that cannot be disabled.
Before you can receive AirDrop Shares from a device whose sender is not in your contacts list, the one-time AirDrop Code will appear on the receiving device's screen. This code must be entered on the sending device's screen in order for AirDrop Shares to be delivered.
Once enabled, AirDrop Shares can be sent between the two devices for up to 30 days without requiring another AirDrop Code.
