“Bob's books was amazing when I found out my parcel wouldn't arrive before my flight out of the country. The team intercepted the package and prepared it for a courier I ordered to ensure I could get the package sent for arrival in another country for Christmas. Bob's books team were amazing and I will continue to use their services. Thanks Bobs Books! Your AMAZING!!!”

“The finished article was a very accurate representation of what I had compiled online. Very well presented, true colour and professional looking. My mother was very pleased with her book at Christmas, a great momento of her 90th celebrations.”

“This is the only supplier I found where the book could be edited online, rather than only on an app - which just made life easier for me as my photos are on my laptop, not the cloud. The book creation process was straightforward (although choosing to insert or delete whole pages is challenging, as you can't do it), the order completion easy, and most importantly the look and quality of the finished items is excellent.”

“The process of creating my book was very easy once I got the hang of the online tools and I was very impressed with the speed of the delivery - and how well everything was packaged up when it arrived. I wasn't really sure what the end result would look like - types of paper, font sizes, quality of image reproduction etc were all rather unknown quantities, so for my first project it was rather a case of suck it and see, but I'd definitely use the site again now I've got a better idea of what the results could be when I do a better job!”

“I have not used Bobs Books before but did a small one for my boyfriends grans 104th birthday pictures. I had it sent straight to her for Christmas so had no idea on what it would be like or the quality etc. They loved it and when i saw it for the first time the other day I was really pleased with the quality. Simple to use and reasonable cost as well. Will definitely be using again. Thank you......”

“Not only was the final product outstanding in quality, but despite only having 5 days to get it before Christmas (website says 12-13 days delivery I believe) they actually got my present to my wife BEFORE Christmas!”

“My Bob Books album is an absolute delight - so much better in design & quality than I was expecting - arriving just five working days after ordering (just before Christmas)...from Germany, as I was told by the extremely helpful Kemi. I opted for the hardback cover, with delightful Lustre Photographic paper...which is more like high-quality card (I maxed out at 98 pages). This makes the album far superior to the Apple and PhotoBox books I had previously ordered. Where Bob Books falls down is the app (iPhone). You need to ensure you have a decent amount of spare capacity in your phone (circa 3gb for a 98-page book)...I had only 300mb, and the pop-up box didn't give me any clues. As a result, the app continually crashed...unless I was very patient and waited for the pages to all load, and then scroll through the pages very slowly...do anything different and the app crashes...meaning that creating my album of 500-odd photos literally took days rather than a couple of hours to compile...so for me this was the most infuriating app I have ever used! There are a number of layout formats, but you have to stick to the set ones - so no mix-and-matching...which is a real shame, as this didn't give me the flexibility I wanted. Creating an Apple book using a computer was much easier, but they don't have an app yet, and the Bob Books app was the best-looking app I'd tried - but it does have a number of flaws...so I fed back a number of enhancements suggestions to Bob Books... - In 'all pages' view, one should be able to click on the desired page, and be taken straight to it, rather than flick through all the pages to get to it...which nearly always led to the app crashing! - Allow comments to be added in each page. - The page format is too rigid - needs flexibility of changing each individual page, rather than having to use a pair of pages. Apple Books does this extremely well! - Add more page formats. - Make it easier to shuffle pages - and individual pages too, rather than a pair. - The inside covers need to allow photos & messages.Enhancements suggestions... - In 'all pages' view, one should be able to click on the desired page, and be taken straight to it, rather than flick through all the pages to get to it...which nearly always led to the app crashing! - Allow comments to be added in each page. - The page format is too rigid - needs flexibility of changing each individual page, rather than having to use a pair of pages.

Hello Stuart, Thank you for taking the time to send your feedback. As you mentioned you do need sufficient storage on your device when you create your photobook. You may find the App runs smoother by closing down any Apps you are not using and backing up and deleting any large files. In regards to your feedback to our current App, we will be addressing many of your suggestions in our next update, including the ability to add text and select single page layouts as well as double pages. Thanks again for your feedback. Kind regards, Bob Books
