Just wanted to share, I just heard of this and ordered my first, you can't beat it for 3 bucks and who doesn't have hundreds of unprinted pics??

Its an app for android or apple, you upload 40-100 photos from your device a month and they mail them to you in a 4x6 book for 3 bucks. They are preforated so you can take them out, but you don't have to

Let me know how it turns out when it comes. I downloaded the app before LO was born but haven't tried it yet.

LokiLahve · January 2014

Is it a $3 per month subscription?

Revez · January 2014

That sounds awesome

LokiLahve · January 2014

I just checked out the app and found the answer to my question above.
@soleil3 have you already ordered a booklet? I'm curious if they are printed double sided? It appears that way in the app.

Marvel1013 · January 2014

That sounds awesome. Let us know! I'm intrigued

You beat me to it...I wonder how well it works...I am curious about it too

Lorjo2022 · January 2014

I seen it on Shark Tank as well! I've downloaded the app but haven't uploaded or ordered pictures yet. It seems like it would work well.. We shall see!

AACaHa13 · January 2014

It does look that way in the app, but in their facebook pics, it looks like they are single sided.

Well I'm sold. It's worth the $3 to see the quality. I have close to 3000 pics of lo! I'm not printing ALL of those, but damn!

LEMSA · January 2014

So if I want to order every other month, do I still pay $3/mo or is it $3/month if you use it?

Soleil3 · January 2014

Its $3 whether you upload photos or not, but you could alway unsubscribe and resubscribe ud think

APK141 · January 2014

I can't wait to hear reviews! I'm horrible at taking pics on my iPhone and not on my camera. I have a great camera and never have it near me.
Those that have ordered, pls review once you get them!

Marvel1013 · January 2014

I've searched for the app and can't find it..

jchytil · January 2014

I am curious about the quality because if they are grainy its not worth the time

ludali · January 2014

I ordered one today...been meaning to since seeing it on Shark Tank. I'm excited to see the results!

The quality will be what your camera takes. So if it looks grainy on your phone, it'll print grainy.

kwrecks · February 2014

I don't know what @Soleil3 thinks of hers, but DH ordered a Groovebook last week and we just got it yesterday. I like the book! It's printed on one side, and the prints are a bit glossy. DH is a terrible picture taker so a lot of his pictures are kind of grainy because that's how they are on his phone. The pictures have a white boarder along the top and bottom that I'm not a fan of, but other than that I really like the book! I ordered one too so I'm excited to get it! For $3, you can't beat it!

Bunnyfer · February 2014

Thanks for the update...I think I will order it

Soleil3 · February 2014

I still havent got mine, crazy that you got yours in a week!

Soleil3 · February 2014

I think the borders are from your photos being printed at maximum dpi. Maybe change your image size in your phone so they are larger files?

kwrecks · February 2014

Oh that's a good idea. I'll wait and see how the ones from my phone turn out, and if they still have the boarder, then I'll play around with the image sizes.

If nothing else, I can use the ones with a boarder for scrapbooking.

MitsB707 · February 2014

What size was the book/are the photos?

ludali · February 2014

I can't wait for mine to arrive...I ordered at least a week ago! @mitsb707...the pics are 4x6

APK141 · February 2014

Glad to hear a review from someone I kind of know. I was reading some reviews on their fb page. Lots of people saying long delivery times. They responded that they ship via Bulk USPS to keep shipping low. Since they were on shark tank, I think the amount of orders skyrocketed.
Ordering mine soon!!

ludali · February 2014

I received my first Groove book today! The quick review? Its not perfect. I love the book as is...then you start flipping through pics. My camera phone isnt awesome, but I have printed some of these pics with better quality. Even if not perfect, I LOVE that I'm holding a small book of my daughter's NICU journey. I think this is something I will continue with...I have a phone upgrade coming soon so I hope the picture quality gets better.

Anyone wanting to try it for free, I have an unlimited promo code for you to try it once. PM me for it.

Edit: this has also made me realize that my phone doesnt take pics that fit on a 4x6... the pics in my book are more 3x6 on 4x6 paper. I'm starting to think I can email pics from my good camera to my phone and have them printed!!

Soleil3 · February 2014

I want mine! I'm so impatient.

I think it took almost 3 weeks for mine...

kwrecks · February 2014

@Soleil3 is so weird that you haven't gotten it yet. Mine and my husband's came in a week-10 days.

@ludali my pictures were the same way. Good idea about emailing good pictures to your phone!

Soleil3 · February 2014

Got mine today! Its as expected for $3 really, I'm happy with it

NikkiD522 · February 2014

@ludali I love free stuff! I've been on the fence about this, I'm in! YGPM coming!

ludali · February 2014

Yay! And you'll keep with it?? I'm going to start uploading for my February book. :-)

Soleil3 · February 2014

I was able to get a 2nd book already for another $2.99. Did you see that option? It helped make a dent in my phone gallery!
