  • Very limited functionality

    Only two book sizes, no layout options, and a limit of 80 photos per book make this app completely useless to me. I wanted to use this to make a book of my 365 project, but that is not possible with the limited functionality and options available. Blurb’s desktop based program is by far superior, but I really don’t want to have to dig out my antiquated laptop to make this photobook, so I will be looking into other options. Blurb, your lack of a fully functional app for the iPad is loosing you business.

  • Pointless

    You can’t edit or view other books created on pc. You should be able to edit pc and on phone. This app is pointless to be honest
  • Was excited ... at first

    I used bookwright for years to make family yearbooks. Over the years I now use my phone more than my Nikon and was looking for something to create the same books with ease from my phone. 80 photos is all you can upload to a book and you don’t get to chose the sizes like you do from a desktop. Super disappointed.

  • Largest size is 7x7 in app

    Disappointed that although I contacted customer service over 2 years ago to inquire about larger photo book options in the app than the 7x7 photo book nothing has been done in that area since then. Various other companies offer larger photo book prints via app already.
    I Love your books but won’t be buying any since I primarily complete my photo books on my phone and 7x7 is too small for me to print for a photo book.

  • Limited options

    I have been using Blurb for years and Dede’s to try the mobile up. Turns out you only have two options for books small and smallest and both are hard cover.
    We must have more options for this to work.
  • Wrong cover

    I got my book. The inside pictures are mine but the front and back cover pictures are someone else’s. How they couldn’t see that a cover that says “i love you because” didn’t match with pictures of a bunch of races... is beyond me! The people on the cover don’t look like the ones in the picture book nor are they anywhere in the book!!

  • Super easy

    I went on a Florida trip and on the ride home I made a book and ordered it right on my phone. It was super easy to figure out and a amazing price.
    It will be here on time for Christmas!
  • Could not change the size of the book!

    There was no option to make the book in a different size, it decided to make it in 5x5 and there was no way I could change that!!!
  • Very disappointing

    Have created a number of books in conjunction with Lightroom on my IMac. So when my wife asked if I could create a pocket book, as my son was getting married in Spain and want to use it to show friends and colleagues on our return from our combined holiday.
    So the day after the wedding I set to work using my iPad to compile the book from photos I had taken on my phone. Couple of hours later the book was sent off to blurb for processing.
    So disappointed with the results: 1. photos were very dark, not a patch on the PDF version I could download from the Blurb website. 2. The images were cropped tighter than I had expected, even though I cropped my images to 1x1 (square) to match the book format of 13x13cm.

  • Fast, Low Cost & Great Quality

    I made my first book in under 30 minutes! I was so impressed, I taught a class at the senior center, and we all made books. It was a huge success.
