Once Upon | Photobook Creator 4+

Wow, I have just received my book and am so impressed. I made a book for my daughter’s first year composed entirely of iPhone pictures, and even at the largest book size they look fantastic printed. The quality of the book itself is great. I found the app really easy to use and loved that I could put it down and come back to it later. This was essential for me as a full time working mom trying to squeeze this in during the evenings. The ability to collaborate was essential as it allowed my husband to easily contribute pictures as well. I will definitely keep using Once Again for future books, even though it is more expensive than other options. A couple things that would have made it even better: 1) the ability to sort all photos by date, especially with multiple collaborators and 2) more options for the cover. The subtitle is too small for my liking, but that’s a minor point. I cannot wait to give these books as presents to the grandparents.

This has been a good experience -often making photo books feels really fiddly. I restarted on this app after trying with an app that does the whole arrangement for you. I wasn’t happy with that output and this app gave the right balance between automated arrangement and selection of photos to include on the page. I was looking for a very simple background which this gives, however if you wanted some background graphics the Scandinavian style of this app might not suit you - I loved it. There were a couple of things that worked less well, otherwise it would have been a 5. 1) I started a second book at the same time as this and I lost access to the album on my phone that contained only relevant photos. It meant I had to rely on the recents album and scroll through WhatsApp attachments etc. I did receive good customer service around this but none of the fixes worked or it required using an intermediate app which was too fiddly. 2) I liked that the photos were ordered into tabs dependent on when they were taken but I also wanted a ‘see all’ option which allowed me to scroll through everything.
The cost seemed pretty reasonable give I chose the biggest book and added pages (total 60). That book worked out at about £60.

Just received my first Once Upon book (27cmx27cm) and the quality is truly excellent! It reminded me of the superior finish that the Apple photo books had when Apple were still producing them. I opted for the “standard” finish which was flawless and not really sure how one could improve on it. The app, as advertised, is super slick and easy to use with just the right amount of options. The collaboration piece is a stroke of genius too. A few suggestions for improvement would be to offer the option of upgrade to include a sleeve and also to highlight any duplicated photos - in my rush to finish the job I foolishly repeated a picture and have had this highlighted by other online photo book companies but naturally with a bit more care I would noticed the error of my ways. We know you pay for what you get and for the price this is a 10/10, high quality product that will not disappoint. I am about to order another. The book also arrived 5 days ahead of schedule!

Hey there! So happy to hear that, thanks for letting us know! And of course, we take your wishes with us. They are highly appreciated! Let us know if there is anything else we can do for you. Have a great day! /team Once Upon
