LOVED BY THOUSANDS
“Here’s the truth: Even the most tech-savvy grandparent would prefer hard-copy photos over digital sends. If you’re much more diligent with texting, the photo-subscription service NanaGram can bridge that gap.” -New York Times Wirecutter (2026)

"Each month, our grandparents rave about their NanaGram! One of the best Christmas gifts we’ve ever gifted. And it’s so easy to use. 11/10!" -Amanda (March 2026)

"My parents, grandma and grandpa to my kids, have loved receiving photos every month. They look forward to it and it is easy. I don’t have time to print photos off and it is so simple to text in my pictures and have them mailed directly to my parents. I love it!" Caitlyn (March 2026)

"This has been a wonderful and super easy way to share photos of my daughter with my grandmother (her great-grandmother). She loves receiving the photos and it's lovely way to make her feel included as she's not on our family text group where I share photos. Thank you for making this so easy!"  Luciana (March 2026)

### 5/5 — Perfect Gift

*2026-07-21*

I have parents in their seventies and two kids, 9 and 5. I tried giving grandma and grandpa digital frames to keep up with their grandkids, but they just did not or could not use it. But they absolutely LOVE getting NanaGram photos in the mail every month, and the app and process to upload photos are super easy and helpful. This is probably the best gift I have ever given my parents, and now we re up every year or else my parents would throw a fit! Cannot recommend any higher!

**Developer response:** Wow, thank you Ben! It's so great to hear your parents love the photos you're sending. I had the same experience with my 94-year old grandparents and digital photo frames! There's nothing like real printed photos. 

I'm so glad to hear NanaGram is the best gift you've ever given... that is an honor!

-Alex, Chief Oldest Grandson

### 5/5 — The app is great — the service behind it is even better.

*2026-07-11*

We’ve used NanaGram since our daughter was born in 2017, back when you texted photos in and managed everything through the website. Every month they print a dozen high quality glossy photos and mail them to whoever you choose. For us that’s grandparents, a great-grandmother, and an aunt on the other coast. My mother now has entire photo albums of our kids growing up, filled month by month. It’s kept our whole family connected across the country in a way social media never could.

The new app makes everything better. No more texting photos, uploading is simple, the images come out crisper, and sorting and managing pictures is easy.

An unexpected benefit: as an older parent I wasn’t in the habit of photographing my kids. NanaGram forced me to capture shareable moments every month, and I’m so grateful for that now.

Here’s what really earns the fifth star. My wife lost her phone a few years ago, and with it all of our digital baby photos. Our family still had their printed copies, but ours were gone. As a Hail Mary I reached out to Alex, the owner. He went back through roughly six years of photos, printed every single one, and sent us three full albums of the baby pictures we thought we’d lost. That’s the kind of company this is. Real people, great support, great communication.

Five stars for the app. Ten for the service and the people behind it. Highly recommend to any parent.

**Developer response:** Wow, Garrett, thanks for the amazing review! 

It's so cool to hear you're coming up on 10 years of using NanaGram to send photos to your grandparents, great grandma and your aunt. 

I'm so glad we were able to save all your baby pictures! As a new dad with two kids under 3, I can't imagine losing all of our photos.

Now that the app supports uploading the full, original resolution originals I'm thinking about building a way to order year-end photo books to order for yourself, with the added plus of being something fun for the kids to flip through that isn't a glowing screen.

### 5/5 — Simple and Loved by G-ma

*2026-07-10*

The app simplifies the upload process (not that texting in photos is bad) and makes it easier to import all at once. Looking forward to having the notifications on my phone for scheduled printing as well. My grandparents absolutely love receiving their photos each month. Give it a shot!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! The other nice thing about the app is all of your photos are uploaded at original resolution and because of that, I plan to support ordering year-end photo books in the future.

-Alex, Chief Oldest Grandson

### 5/5 — Great option

*2026-07-10*

I’m a long time (5+ years) user of the NanaGram service. With that, you can text or email photos and they get printed and mailed to someone each month.  Me and my siblings have signed up and send photos to Grandmom. She loves them. They go in a nice photo binder. 

The app is a nice addition to the service. It works well and is easy to add photos to from your phone.  If you are familiar with a shared album on IPhone or Google, or bow a digital frame like Aura or Frameo work, it’s like those. Except at the end of the process, someone gets actual printed photos instead of a chime on their digital device.  If you like the concept of a shared frame, but want print photos, this is the service you are looking for.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review! It always warms my heart to hear from people using NanaGram for many years. This fall, it will be 10 years since I launched the service with my brother. 

I'm so glad to hear your Grandmom loves the photos you've been sending and she's building out a photo album. 

I really appreciate your comments about how the app compares to the experience of shared photo albums and digital photo frames. 

I'm excited to continue improving the service and the app this summer and beyond. Don't hesitate to reach out anytime with your ideas!

### 5/5 — Easy, Fun, Top-Quality & So Rewarding

*2026-07-10*

I’m a Nana who’s been receiving 10 pictures a month for the last 8 months… and I love it!   Thanks to Nanagram, I can follow the adventures of my kids & grandkids — next best thing to being there. The quality  is outstanding, way better than the ones I used to get with Shutterfly.  It’s always a good day when the Nanagram envelope arrives.

**Developer response:** Wow, it's so great to hear from a real-life Nana reviewing NanaGram herself! :) 

It's very cool to hear your feedback about how our print quality compares to Shutterfly. I'm so glad to hear you like them. Quick tip, in case you don't know already — if you go into the shipping settings, you can convert your photos into photo postcards. The print quality is the same as our standard photos (with a blank back) except we print a blank postcard template on the back. This allows you to send photo postcards... all you have to do is add a stamp and optionally write a message — it's so fun!

Thanks again and don't hesitate to reach out anytime.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-07-10*

Going on year 4-5 I think of buying this for my MIL for Christmas. So easy! Also now even easier with the app!

**Developer response:** Thank you for making the time to leave a review of our new app. It's so cool to hear you've been using NanaGram all these years to stay in touch with your mother in law. It's also hard to believe that this year, it will be 10 years since I launched the service. 

I'm very excited about the new app and I'm planning on many further improvements this summer and beyond. Don't hesitate to reach out anytime with your ideas. Thanks again!

-Alex, Chief Oldest Grandson

### 5/5 — The gift that keeps on giving

*2026-07-09*

We love NanaGram! It’s a gift for my mom (Grandma) and it keeps on giving. She loves getting prints every month and upload is super easy on the app or by text. Managing shipments and seeing that’s been printed is so easy on the app. Highly recommend!!

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your review! It's great to hear your mom is enjoying NanaGram. I'm glad you like the new order screen in the app, too. I'll be releasing new improvements and features in the coming months. Don't hesitate to reach out anytime!
