How to Order Photo Prints from your Phone

If you are a traditional scrapbooker or if you use simple photo albums, there's a quick new way to order prints straight from your phone!

UPDATE 2021:  This post was originally about a company called Snap2Finish, which will eventually be part of a new company called YPhoto (in 2022 or 2023, probably), but here is an equally fast and photo-privacy-promising company called Forever, and it has a lot of extra perks.  

Here's how to upload photos directly from your phone to your Forever account, but stay tuned for information about ordering from your computer, too:

1. Open your Forever account at https://www.forever.com/ambassador/jennifer-wise.  Your photos there are private (not true for most photo storage companies), and there's no fine print about reserving rights to your photos (either deleting or selling!--also not true for more photo storage companies).
2. Next, get the Forever app.  There are directions here on how to get the Forever app, but please note that it's not just an app.  You can auto-sync, backup, organize, etc., right from your phone.  Forever isn't like a traditional cloud sync to your phone (meaning, whatever happens on your phone happens to the app).  With traditional cloud sync services, you can't delete a photo from your phone without deleting it from the cloud.  Forever isn't like that.  You can free up space on your phone by "syncing" with Forever (or just uploading photos from your phone to your Forever Storage)!!

Here's how to order photo prints from Forever on your computer, and cool options for editing your photos right in your Forever account!

1. If you haven't yet, open your Forever account at https://www.forever.com/ambassador/jennifer-wise.  Again, your photos there are private (not true for most photo storage companies), and there's no fine print about reserving rights to your photos (either deleting or selling!--also not true for more photo storage companies).  You can upload photos to your Forever account from your computer, external hard drive, flash drive, etc., not only your phone.
2. Optional, but very cool is the ability to edit your photos right in your Forever account.  I made this little video to show you how: 
   
   
3. Once you've uploaded your photos into your Forever account, click the "Create & Print" button along the top near the center, then "Photo Prints" from the drop-down menu.  Or find it here:  https://www.forever.com/ambassador/jennifer-wise/autoprint/photo-prints
4. Choose your desired size and style (glossy or lustre/matte), and order away!  

Printing photos is the most important way to preserve them.  PRINT is how photos get seen and loved!  So whether you print photos physically and scrapbook them, or you print them in digital photo albums or storybooks, you are truly PRESERVING them!
