Love the cards- sending is frustrating

I wish I could directly type a phone number in. I tried to send a few digital cards and the phone number I had in my contact list had an extra digit (like the 1 at the beginning) and so I got an error message and it wouldn’t actually send. But then I can’t go back and fix it because it says “sent” next to that contact. Wish there was an easier fix for this issue.

Hi! You can resend a card by swiping on the contact you sent it to - you can also revoke access to a card the same way. We contemplated allowing numbers to be typed in but we wanted to make sure we did everything we could to avoid spam texts. We appreciate you using Pictacto and value your feedback. Please email info@pictacto.com and we’ll make this right.

Cards via Text?! Count me in!

What an awesome idea this is! I can send Christmas cards, birthday cards, save the dates, party invites and more all via text message. I’ve had a blast sending birthday cards to my friends and family (pro tip: if you’ve named people in your photos just search for that person and pick awesome pictures!).

For a buck a month this is a no brainer - you’ll save hundreds in just Christmas cards alone!

What a Unique Idea!

This is such a different way of doing greeting cards! Although I originally purchased the app for my Christmas cards, I have also loved using the app to send custom birthday cards! Pro tip: use your iphone photos app to search for pictures of your family and friends and put together a special, one-of-a-kind birthday card!

The sending process for Christmas cards was tedius, but I was able to send nearly 300 cards in under an hour. The best part was getting SO MANY responses back from people I haven't talked to in years! I spent all of Christmas chatting with people that I had lost touch with. What a gift!

I want to love it

The initial setup to add pics and text was very fun, quick and easy. I initially loved it. But it would not always open on the receivers end and then it would say that they no longer had access to the info. I sent the card to about 75 people which was also very easy once I allowed access to my contacts. But there was a large percentage of people that could not open it. I tried sending it again to the people that could not open it and it would not allow me to send it again.
So again, I want to love it because of how easy it seemed, but the execution was not there.

da Vinci meets Tesla

This app is a masterpiece. Efficient, creative and smooth way of creating holiday cards and seamlessly sending them to your family and friends! Thanks Pictacto for creating a tool that allows me to keep my loved ones informed about my family’s life. You saved me hundreds!

Brilliant!

Sending Christmas cards to family and friends has never been easier! No more hunting down address or spending a ton of money on cards and stamps 🙌🏼

Love this!

I never like sending out Christmas cards because they take so much time and money but this app is awesome and the e-announcements look so good!

Innovation for the next generation

A great new app that makes it easy to update family without killing a ton of trees! I will also recommend this to newly weds for their thank you cards. This app could truly change the way we think about sending cards and the content we are able to communicate!

What a fun and creative idea

This will change the way we send Christmas and other greeting cards forever. Great work!
