Hi - We just launched this today in the App Store. We’ll print, frame, giftwrap, and ship any photo on your phone. Mobile photography is more capable than ever, but yet many photos never leave the phone. We’re making it easy to get those photos off your device into a beautiful, ready-to-hang print.

Would love any feedback on the concept, user experience, and potential audiences/use cases.

I would prefer much more control.

I once tried a print service over the internet and the result was disappointing, to say the least. With this app, I couldn't even choose another print service.

Our goal was to make framed prints a one-stop shop so we found a framing partner that does every aspect of the final product -- printing, framing, assembling, and shipping. Sorry to hear you had poor results with printing in the past, but ours is done in professional, best-in-class Epson and Canon color-calibrated printers with 10 and 12-color pigmented inks.

No mention of pricing.

The pricing is based on how you customize the frame, as well as the print size, but we could say "Starting at $50" somewhere on the site/in the app.
