Chatbooks - Easy Photo Books You Can Make From Your Phone

Our first Chatbook is hardcover.  You can also order soft cover books.

I have a closet in my house filled with a mixture of old school photo albums from childhood, "perfectly" laid out scrapbooks from my early marriage and photos stuffed into a plastic bin hoping for attention.  Gone are the days of my plastic camera with a little square flash perched on top.  Most of my photos are taken with my smartphone.  Then what?  Social media seems to be the photo album of the 21st century.

Chatbooks is a simple service that allows you to upload your photos to make either a softcover or hardcover photobook.  We have used several services to make photo books in the past.  I don't really have any complaints about the services that we have used except for the time to make them and price.  And who doesn't want to save time and a little money?

Photos are displayed with the date.  I really like this!

I don't have time to organize physical photos into an album.  I feel accomplished when a photo makes it into a frame at this point.  Making a photo book on my mobile device or laptop?  This is a form of scrapbooking that I can get into,

You can make a Chatbook starting at $10.  I recently did my first one for a total of $15 that included a hardcover and 60 photos! I made my book quickly and without breaking into my savings.

The binding has the title and dates from the photos that are used to make the book.

Chatbooks has an app that will collect photos directly from your mobile device or social media accounts.  You can literally make your book in less than 30 minutes while in the passenger seat on the way home from a trip.   These options make me want to use this service even more.  I don't have a lot of downtime, but putting my time in the passenger seat to good use gets two thumbs up from me!

Our chat book is well made.  I like the matte photos and photo cover.  I can add captions, move photos around to rearrange the order all within the app.

I like how simple the captions are to add.  You can also rearrange the order of the photos if you like.

Finally, their customer service is awesome.  I had a snag with a coupon code for my first book.  I contacted customer service and received a prompt and courteous response.

Download the app or visit their website to get started with your first Chatbook.  It's a great way to make your memories more permanent.  I'm planning to make some more books from the other photos that I've neglected.  Its easy enough to do it!

Each page makes me happy!

Don't let your photos die a slow death on your social media feeds or with your next mobile device that you didn't back up.  Take your photos and organize them into something beautiful that can make lasting memories that you can pass down to your children.  Our son loves flipping through the pages to revisit our adventures as a family.
