Thanks! And good point on the FAQs + TOS. Will add them to the to-do list.

We're beta testing the app right now with friends & family and have made our first few deliveries already. The response has been great so far from people's grandparents. They love getting the prints in the mail with the captions to tell the story of the photo on them.

We're going to be exploring international shipping soon. What country does the person you want to send photos to live in?

Germany.

Something like this also needs the ability to delay shipments - old people are more likely to be admitted to hospitals or similar.

That's a good point too and something we hadn't considered. Would it work if the package was just delivered in the mail as usual and they could open it when they got home as something to look forward to?

That assumes that old people live at home / have a regular mail box. What if they live in a nursing home or similar? Although 4x6 (10x15cm) is postcard format, so usual mailboxes should fit quite a number of those just fine.
