The printed book is here! Turn a timeline or an album into a real keepsake book, delivered to your door. Dear Ones lays out a first draft for you, one memory per page, and you make it yours: crop, caption, build collages, reorder pages, choose page colors. Letters print in the font you chose, cursive and all. Hardcover, premium layflat, or softcover. Ships in the US. What you see in the app is what comes home in the book. Also in this update: a smoother page-turn when you flip through your book, and small fixes throughout.
