Before your first book.

A few practical answers, then you’re ready to begin.

Is PhotoBooks really free?

Yes. The app and PDF export are free. There is no export watermark or account requirement. Printing through a third-party service is a separate cost.

Which devices can I use?

Mac with macOS 15 or later, or iPhone and iPad with iOS / iPadOS 18 or later. Choose the download for your device above.

Are my photos uploaded?

PhotoBooks processes your library on your device. Your photos are not uploaded to a Graphic Meat server.

Can I change the layout or fix a crop?

Yes. Adjust photos and crops, choose alternative layouts, and lock pages you want to keep. Automatic arrangement is a starting point you can edit.

Where can I print my book?

Export a PDF and use a print service that accepts your chosen format. Check its page size, bleed and page-count requirements first. You can also share the PDF digitally.
