Hi guys!

I need some assistance please. I'm using two instances of Wifibooth and Sololink simultaneously in two separate photo studios in one room. Studio 1 and Studio 2. Each photo studio is set up with a separate iPpad and iPhone running Wifibooth and Sololink respectively in separate networks, Network1 and Network2. In spite of this i experience severe issues with cross connections between Sololink and Wifibooth between studios. Do you have a work around or quick fix that can be implemented or a known configuration that can eliminate this problem swiftly? I’m in the middle of a project.

Hmm - difficult. This is not something we designed it for.
One thing you could try is turn off bluetooth on ALL devices, and make sure each pair of devices is on separate wifi networks. Before you go thru too much hassle to try this, just try it on one pair first bc i cannot remember if wifibooth with require bluetooth for the connection..

Thanks!
It did the trick for now. Don’t know if it’s stable though. I use multiple instances every day. Would be perfect if some sort of flip-switch feature to restrict connection to a named source could be implemented. Thank you for a swift response.

To be clear. The app says that Bluetooth is required. Perhaps for full functionality with all features. Bluetooth is not required in order to connect the iPhone to an iPad for camera mirroring and data transfer of images.

Correct, but Bluetooth IS required for printing via sololink, which is the thing most people use it for!
Glad it works for you!

Thanks Tim, actually, Bluetooth is also required for remote triggering the shutter on the iPhone so it didn't work. I need the trigger to be remote controlled. So back to square one unfortunately.

If the ipad has a headphone jack (old style), you can plug in those headphones that have the volume up/down button, and use the vol up button which wifibooth listens to for triggering

Thanks, but it's newer models of iPhone and iPad. Is i possible to implement a specific pairing to a named iPhone in the near future, just like the connection to specific cameras?

No, this is not a feature anyone will care about, because they only use one...
