Printic – The Best Way To Print & Share Your Pictures (Review & Giveaway!)

Sponsored Review

It’s not hard for me to fall in love with Printic.

I love taking photographs on my phone, and apart from posting them on Instagram and Facebook, I sometimes wish I can print out those beautiful photographs. Printic is an app on my phone that allows me to send the photographs I want to be printed into polaroids and delivered to whoever and wherever I want!

At the recent Phnom Penh trip I went with my family, I tried out the app on the trip and sent some of my favorite photographs taken on the trip via the app to be printed and then delivered to my home. I thought it would be really nice to receive a memento of the trip when I get home, and indeed it was! The polaroids arrived in a beautiful and classy envelope and I love the quality of the photographs!

Each quality print costs a mere US$0.99 and best of all, delivery is FREE! Somehow, polaroids add a certain edge to what I captured in Phnom Penh and I love it so much!

You’ll be glad to know that using the app is easy & fuss-free. All you need to do is to download the app, Printic, from Apple Store (for iphone users) or the Google Play Store (for android users), and the app brings you through your ordering process step by step:

This is the opening page of the app. Sign up for an account at the top right hand corner, then click on ‘START!’.

You may also do some simple editing to your photographs – crop, rotate, choose quantity to print or add icons, etc.

For each batch of photographs, you can also choose to send them to more than one recipient by adding their names & addresses. At this point, you may also add a message to your delivery. At the summary page, your photographs will be uploaded and your order cost tabulated. Thereafter, proceed to payment and you are done!
