Monitor Booth Status
You can monitor your booth’s health and performance in real-time using either the in-app Mission Control screen or the devices page on your online dashboard.
In-App Mission Control
Mission Control is a hidden dashboard available after you have launched your booth. It allows you to check your connection status and make minor adjustments without exiting booth mode.
How to Access Mission Control
To keep the interface secure from guests, Mission Control is accessed via a specific touch gesture:
Ensure the app is resting on the Tap to Start screen.
Place two fingers side-by-side in the center of the screen.
Slowly pinch out (slide your fingers away from each other in opposite directions).
This gesture is intentionally subtle to prevent participants from accidentally accessing your settings during an event. It may take a few tries to master the movement!
Mission Control Tools
Mission Control is divided into two main tabs: Status and Adjustments. You can toggle between them at the bottom of the screen.
Status Tab
View a high-level overview of your current setup:
Preset & Gallery: See which preset is active and which online gallery is receiving uploads.
Network: Confirm which Wi-Fi network the iPad is using.
Device Info: Check the iPad's name and available storage.
License: View the license code currently authorizing the app.
Adjustments Tab

Online Devices Page
If you are managing an event remotely, you can get a status overview of all your iPads from the devices page in your dashboard.
The dashboard provides a live look at:
Connection Status: See when the iPad was "Last Seen" online.
Event Details: Which preset is running and the latest upload activity.
Hardware Health: Monitor the iPad's battery percentage and available disk space.
Software: Ensure the iPad is running the latest version of the HALO app.
Queue: See if there are pending uploads stored on the device.
From this page, you can also rename your iPad or remotely launch a new preset, provided the device is currently online.
