Sending a SnapShot Postcard is also a great way to reach out to people who don’t use email, maybe grandparents or young nieces and nephews.

From iPhone to mailbox in four simple steps:
1. Choose your photo
2. Enter message and address details
3. Tap on “Send”
4. Your postcard is printed, addressed, postage applied, and mailed!

Do you want to adjust or “zoom” your photo? Just “pinch and zoom” and you can. To clear, just shake!

Your postcard will be printed in high quality color with a glossy coating. It is mailed first class, with the return address you supply (not ours).

Postcards sent to US address costs 1 credit, international addresses cost 2 credits (includes mailing costs). After your first free postcard, additional credits can be purchased through Settings for as low as $0.80 each (US). We take credit cards or PayPal.

Make a memory special. Mail real postcards to real mailboxes directly from your iPhone!
