Question 1

Is Mimic Booth for long-distance relationships?

Accepted Answer

Yes, that’s what it’s made for. Partners, best friends and family who live far apart can hop into a room, see each other live, and take photos on one shared countdown. Every strip puts you side by side with the pose, so it looks like you squeezed into the same booth. It works across cities, countries and time zones. You only need a browser and a camera.

Question 2

What can we do with it?

Accepted Answer

Date night, a birthday call, an anniversary, a “miss you” moment or just a Tuesday. Pick a pose, count down together and keep the strip, so the next visit has something to look back on.

Question 3

Do I need to install anything?

Accepted Answer

No. Mimic Booth runs in your browser. Open the invite link and allow camera access on both devices.

Question 4

How many people can join a room?

Accepted Answer

Two. Every room is made for you and your partner, so your session stays private.

Question 5

Video is stuck on “Connecting…”. What now?

Accepted Answer

Some networks block direct video connections. Try a different Wi-Fi or mobile data on one device, then open a fresh room.

Question 6

Where do my photos go?

Accepted Answer

Photos are sent directly between your two browsers, not stored in a room database. Keep the host tab open in case your partner needs to recover any photos.

Question 7

Can I take more than four photos?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each strip page holds four photos and extra shots continue onto new pages. “Download all pages” saves every page at once.

Question 8

Who controls the timer?

Accepted Answer

The host picks the countdown, from 1 to 60 seconds, and starts it for both of you. Either of you can turn auto-shuffle on or off.
