My first journi book
I have just received my first book from Journi. Really happy how it turned out. Great coffee table piece. Photos can now be out on display rather than stuck on my phone where I can never find them. I am now going to get some more done after seeing how the format turns out.
Thanks Journi. Great bookShow lessUser friendly
Once you get the hang of it, it is pretty user-friendly and while everything is not fully customisable, the options on offer are pretty good, from choosing a theme or setting one up yourself to adding new pages, new photos i process and texts too.
The quality of the print was great, so long as you follow their guidelines.Show lessNo access to shared albums continues to be a deal-breaker
July, 2024 (review revision #12): Another update, and yet ANOTHER year gone by, and STILL no way to access iCloud Shared Albums. Journi GmbH *really* needs to provide a way to use the standard iOS “photo picker” so we can access photos in shared albums!! (Please?!) When we get together for a group event, everybody puts their favorite photos into a shared album, and those albums are inaccessible with Journi! I know they have their own “shared photos” solution that they think is sufficient, BUT IT’S NOT. (People don’t want to deal with other apps and “special instructions”.) It’s enough of a challenge to get folks to add photos to an iCloud shared album (and that only takes a few taps!) Other apps on the App Store *do* allow access to shared albums, so it’s NOT a technical limitation. There have been lots of updates to the app in the years since I initially mentioned this but it continues to be ignored. 😢Show lessDeveloper Response
Unfortunately we do not get access to shared albums, but you can use our family & friends-photosource instead. When you are in the photo selector, switch the source from "phone" to "friends & family", give them the visible link, where they can then upload their photos and make them available for you.
