## What is Zinimal?

Zinimal turns your photos into little printed zines.

Pick photos, add a line of text, print one sheet of paper, fold it, cut once — and you are holding an eight-page mini zine. Want more room? The booklet format prints double-sided and grows four pages at a time, as far as your stapler dares.

MAKE
• Photos from your library — the app only ever sees what you pick
• One line of text per page: four typefaces, three sizes, six colors
• Facing pages side by side, photos and text spanning the fold
• Paper color for every page

PRINT & SHARE
• Print-ready PDF with cut and fold guides, at full photo resolution
• Single-sheet zines also export as a 300-dpi image
• A folding guide with pictures lives right in the app

QUIET BY DESIGN
• No account, no ads, no tracking — the app does not even use the
  internet
• Everything stays on your device
• Every edit saves itself; there is no save button

Paper is patient. Make something small and real.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.0.2 — 2026-09-05

Small language related fix

### 1.0.1 — 2026-09-02

- Give a zine away as one file — photos and all, still editable. Share it from the export menu or the zine's own menu on the shelf: AirDrop, mail, a message. Zine files open from the top of the shelf, or just tap the file. That is also how your zines move to a new phone.
- Mini zine XL: sixteen pages from one sheet, printed double-sided and cut open. The folding guide is in the app.
- Captions may hang over the page edge now; whatever hangs over is trimmed by the page, in the preview and in print alike.
- Capture data such as place and time is taken out of JPEG photos the moment you pick them.
- Printing opens with the zine's own paper, A4 or US Letter.
- Fixed: a stalled save can no longer overwrite a newer edit, and a booklet always lands on a printable page count.

### 1.0.0 — 2026-09-02
