If you spend a lot of time travelling and want to keep in touch with friends and family, then the ability to send postcard online worldwide is a great option. You can make a postcard from any phone, tablet or computer and it takes the hassle out of buying stamps or trying to navigate foreign post offices. It’s also a great way to show someone that you’re thinking of them, even when you are miles away.
With this app, you can upload a photo from Instagram, Facebook or your camera roll and then write and design a message on the front. The app has a wide variety of card templates to choose from and the text can be edited with filters, effects and emojis. There is a space for a return message and the cards can be sent to multiple addresses with no limit on the number of recipients.
The card is then printed on real postcard paper and mailed directly to the recipient with worldwide postage included in the price. You can add a custom postmark or the app can use your contacts to populate the address. You can also upload an Excel file of addresses for a bulk order and receive email confirmation of the order.
Although the app is easy to use and offers a good variety of card designs, there are some negatives. For example, the cards are not personalised with a handwritten note and the app tends to bombard you with popups trying to sell a subscription or other features.
