A Gift For Mom Or Dad From The Family Chat
Yes. The family groupchat, or your own thread with a parent or a grandparent, can be printed as a book and given to them. One person in the chat makes it.
Can I turn the family groupchat into a book?
Yes. Every message is set in the order it was sent, with each person's name beside what they wrote: the birthday messages, the dinner plans, the questions about how to work the television. Every book includes 700 pages, and a longer chat carries on in a second volume.
Can it be my own texts with one parent?
Yes. A conversation between two people is the usual book. If it is in Messages on an iPhone, you need a computer to get it out, a Mac or a Windows PC, and this guide has the steps.
Will the photos be in it?
The Unabridged is words only, and shows a small note where a photo was sent. For photos, choose the Anthology: you pick the moments that mattered and add a photo of yours to each, and it prints them in color.
Can everyone in the family have a copy?
Yes. Order the same book again from its page. The book stays in your library, so there is nothing to send again.
Do the others need to know?
No one is contacted, so it can be a surprise for the person you give it to. When you order, you confirm that you're in the conversation and that the others in it would be happy to be in a printed book. In a family chat, it is worth telling the others.
When will it arrive?
A printed book arrives about two weeks after you approve the pages, and no delivery date is promised. If the day is close, the digital edition or a gift card is the sure thing: both arrive the same day.
What does it cost?
The Unabridged, every message set as a novel, is $49 as a paperback and $89 as a hardcover. The Anthology, a landscape hardcover in color with 48 pages, is $99. The digital edition is $19. US shipping is free.
