Good quality soft cover photo books for a small postage charge. (0 more)

Just pay for postage

I have used this app many times now, each time FreePrints have delivered a good quality product. In a day and age, where we tend to store our photographic memories digitally, I thought I would be a good idea to have some stores physically.

I was dubious to begin with, as the app states all you pay is the postage, but I braved uploading photos expecting to receive a large postage charge at the end. The postage charge is a little above Royal Mails small parcel price, but affordable at £4.99. This makes the photo book cheaper by far than some of its rivals.

The app allows you to upload photos from a variety of sources, including your phones internal storage. You can crop photos and allocate several to one page. The app even lets you know if the photos resolution is low (ideal if you have sourced the photos from social media), so you can decide whether to keep or swap your images.

The default setting for the free photo book, is for a 20 page 7x5 soft back book. You also have to option to write a title or small message on the front cover. There are plenty of upgrade options available on the app, at an additional charge, if you chose to use them. Upgrades available include hardback books and additional pages. It is worth keeping an eye on the app and notifications though, as FreePrints regularly have upgrades on offer or even free.

I have been pleasantly surprised by the quality of the item and the care that has been taken by FreePrints to post the books securely - they come in a card based package to prevent bending or creasing in the post. I have ordered many over the course of months. As they are of a quality that is gift worthy, I have ordered some to use as stocking fillers for Christmas - ideal for the grandparents.

I have already begun to recommend this app to friends and family.
