The 'Booth Status' page gives you a quick overview of the number of:

• Email shares
• SMS Shares
• Photo Sessions
• Cloud Uploads

It also tells you underneath each statistic how many of those items are still pending. 

The 'Booth Session Log' shows a live feed of whether your images have been, are still waiting to be, or have failed to be shared or uploaded to your chosen storage provider. 

If a share or upload was successful, it will appear in green text. 
If a share or upload is still pending, it will appear in blue text.
If a share or upload failed, it will appear in red text.
