How to install and setup Cymo Booth
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Cymo Booth really free?
Yes. Cymo Booth is a donationware, and the base version of Cymo Booth is completely free.
Do I need to sign up for an account to use Cymo Booth?
You will need an account to create a new booth. After you create a booth, other users can join it without sign up.
My microphone gets muted and its light gets turned off when I mute myself in Zoom. How can I get around it?
There are a few headphones will sync button status with Zoom. You can disable this function in Zoom's settings under Settings > Audio by unchecking the box next to "Sync button on headset". See it highlighted in the image below:
I'm getting a prompt saying that I need to grant permission to use my camera and microphone. Where do I give it permission?
This may occur when using the browser version of Cymo Booth and we recommend installing the MacOS or PC versions for the best user experience. However, if you prefer to use Cymo Booth in the Chrome browser, there are two places where we need to grant permissions, between the operating system and Chrome, and between Chrome and Cymo Booth. Please refer to these third-party guides to help you troubleshoot:
- How to give a site (like Cymo Booth) permission to use your camera and microphone in Chrome. See the instructions under "Change a site's camera & microphone permissions".
- For MacOS: How to give Chrome permission to access your camera and microphone on a Mac. This is the same page as above, however, look for a blue header "Turn on permissions in computer settings" and click to expand it for instructions.
Do I need to setup a booth ahead of time?
No, Cymo Booth is designed to be "ephemeral", meaning that the booth gets teared down once everyone leaves and nothing is saved.
How can I share my booth to my boothmates?
You can send the booth ID to your boothmate(s) directly, so that they can join your booth by entering the ID in the Join page of the Cymo Booth desktop or web apps.
Alternatively, you can share the booth URL so that your boothmates can join direclty in a browser.
There are two places where you can copy the link to your booth:
- When you create a new booth the link can be copied right above the "Launch Booth" button.
- If you are in the booth already, navigate to the gear icon at the upper left corner to open the settings page. Once there, you can see the link ready to be copied at the top of the page.
1. Copy link when creating new booth
