A Gift For Grandparents Made From Your Texts

Print your texts with your grandparents as a book. It is the same conversation they already had with you, on paper, with nothing for them to set up or charge.

What is a good gift for grandparents who do not need anything?

A printed book of your texts with them is a good one. It is every message the two of you sent, in order, with each name beside it. They get something to read that they helped write.

Do my grandparents have to do anything on their phone?

No, nothing at all. Only one person in the conversation makes the book, and we never contact anyone else in it. You make it from your phone and they get a parcel.

Which is better for grandparents, the printed book or the digital edition?

The printed book, for most grandparents. It is set as pages of type, like a novel. The digital edition comes with it, so the family elsewhere can read the same book as a PDF.

Should I print my own texts with them or the family groupchat?

Print your own texts for a gift from you, and the family groupchat for one from everybody. A groupchat prints with each name beside its messages. Ask the family first, since it is their writing too. The family chat guide has more.

Can each grandchild make one?

Yes, each grandchild can make a book from their own conversation. Each is a separate book with its own title and cover. For several copies of one book, order it again from its page.

Will the pictures we sent them print?

No, the book is words only. It marks where a photo or a voice memo was sent. Emoji print.

How long does it take to reach them, and what does it cost?

A printed book arrives about two weeks after you approve it, and no delivery date is promised. The paperback is $49 and the hardcover is $89, with free US shipping. We ship within the US only for now.
