Photobook - Reviews and experiences

Been using this photobook app for years — I make a little album every holiday and toss in random snaps from my phone. The printed book feels sturdy and pages sit flat, colours are usually spot-on. Sometimes the auto-layout shuffles captions weirdly and uploads can drag, but it's easy to tweak. Not perfect, but a handy way to keep memories on the shelf.

the ordering site is a bit fiddly and delivery could be quicker.

I remember pulling the box onto my kitchen table after work. Been using Photobook UK for just over five years now, mostly lay-flat hardcovers around 40 pages. First impression was that the online designer is simple and no nonsense. The day I knew I was happy was when I opened three new books and the printing matched exactly what I saw on screen — colours, binding, the lot. A bit pricey sometimes, but solid results and easy sharing online.

I almost didn't bother — wary because I've worked in print for years and seen tricky reproductions. The web app looked simple so I ran a small test to check colour and layout. The interface is straightforward, not flashy, lets you nudge text and images where you want; there were a few tiny alignment hassles but nothing fatal. I ordered five copies (hardback and softcover) and they matched the preview. My pre-purchase doubts mostly faded. I've had sloppy colour matches elsewhere, so this was a pleasant surprise — not thrilled, but pleased; delivery was on time and packaging was decent.

I could forward a preview to friends and see an electronic version — didn’t expect that. Paper, binding, covers and print were all good, and there were upgrade options if you want nicer materials.

The process of making my photo book was really easy and straightforward. They had lots of templates to pick from, which made it simple to make it my own. I got my book super fast, within a week. The quality was top-notch and I was really happy with how it turned out. Because of all this, I'm now a loyal customer. Plus, I love that I can now share my finished photo book with friends and family once I've ordered it.
