Hi owners!
In order to work with the MMS feature, you will need to set up an account on a website called Twilio. There, you can purchase a virtual number that integrates with the software and allows your guests to text themselves their photo directly from the booth!
Are you ready? Let's begin!
- Go to Twilio's website and Sign Up: https://twilio.com
- Insert your details, as shown below.
- Insert your phone number for authentication. Then, you will receive a text with a code, enter it and continue.
- Then, you will see your account's dashboard. Under "Phone Numbers", click on "Get a Number"
- Then, Select "Buy a Number"
- Then, you can search for a number and buy it. Make sure that the number has MMS capability.
- Back to your Dashboard, you will need to copy your Account SID and Auth token to the Mirror Me software (Features tab > MMS).
In the "From number", enter the number that you bought. (without spaces, dashes or special characters)
*Note: For the SMS Service PHP, please check the User Manual or contact Foto Master Support. - We're almost done! Keep in mind that you are still in a Trial account on Twilio. You will need to upgrade it, set an amount of money for your account (usually it's 20$, you can always add more if needed)
- All set!

Does this work with other providers like Grasshopper, Nextiva, or Ring Central or just with Twilio?
Has anyone encountered the 200/day MMS limit by the FCC and how did you overcome it? Multiple numbers from Twilio?
