Important BYO Booth Update for Instagram API changes
As of December 11, 2018 Facebook is depreciating the old Instagram API and replacing it with a new one. Users will need to update to BYO Booth version 2.6.1 or greater in order to download photos from Instagram. You will also need to login to a Facebook account in BYO Booth instead of an Instagram account. This Facebook account must be the adminstrator of a Facebook page and this page must be linked to an Instagram Business account.
