Our refrigerators are becoming increasingly bare with the decrease in travel postcards and increase in Facebook photo uploads. There are several easy to use and extremely inexpensive apps to document special moments in life and share it via snail mail, email, or social media–and sometimes all of the above. We’ve reviewed several here to help you identify one that best suits how you care to share with your loved ones, your social circles, and potential clients. These apps are great for sending out postcards to friends and family using your iPhone over the holiday season. Price: Free The Postagram app for iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad app could be the only postcard app you need. The download is free, and custom postcards are delivered worldwide for the low, low price of 99 cents each. The set-up for the app is quick and simple. Postagram syncs with your photo library, Instagram, and

Although we can’t deny the pleasure of getting a real-life, hard copy card through good old-fashioned snail mail, e-cards offer a great alternative, especially for anyone short on time. E-cards have grown up from the tacky offerings of the 1990s and are an environmentally friendly way to send a greeting — especially nowadays, when you’re more likely to have your friend’s e-mail address than postal address. Greeting card apps in the App Store are 10 a penny though, so to save you the hassle of shopping around for the best app, we’ve selected five fabulous options that will suit all tastes — from minimalists to shutterbugs to lovers of vintage style. Classy card company Cartolina has gone, in its words, “pretty hi tech” with this iPhone app, which offers a limited range of e-cards that you can text or e-mail out as many times as you’d like. The cards only offer

After the update, I'm still not happy with this app. The text resolution is still terrible. Not worth the money, especially, when it's lacking one of the basic functions! Fix it & I'll fix my rating.

Great app. Needs a handwriting font added (mystic, perhaps) postcards are handwritten, no? fun and lots of templates to play with. Great job.
Great for travel

This a really cool way to send a few quick snapshots and emails back home, when you're traveling and don't want to take time out to write a long email, upload high-res images, etc. It's easy and intuitive to use, with enough variety to keep things interesting, but not so much that it's overwhelming.
Simply Amazing!

I cannot imagine NOT giving this program a five star. Any bug reported has been fixed, and this just gets better and better!! This App is just fantastic! Elegant designs, and fun fun fun all the way. I've been playing around with it for a couple of weeks now because I wanted to be fair in my review. I love the photo icon next to the style so you can see, gets better and better!! Current designs are fantastic, just beautiful!
Wonderful App...

I love using this when I'm on the road and with my kid. These cards give my shots that extra character needed to emphasize the event or moment. The huge library of templates (to think they added more!) makes it really easy to takes shots of my kid and send it to family members via email or upload it to my social networking site. I can't wait to try the new Facebook feature. Our course, this app can't give me the versatility I have with Photoshop, but when you're on the road, this app delivers. Clean interface, able to work in landscape mode, text formatting, and a wonderful set of templates. I would recommend for any iPhone user that enjoys sharing picts on the road. That being said, don't think you're going to get full Photoshop quality. Let's be realistic. This is the next best thing.
Worth the $2.99!!!!

This app deserves . I wasn't sure at first, but by my first lifecard, I was hooked. I love how you can use your own photos and implement them onto such beautifully designed cards. And I love the variety of templetes to choose from for the cards! The possibilities are endless! I usually just create cute little cards and e-mail them out to my friends and family. I will never attach pictures again! You can even add text to your card explaining the photos in a non-boring way. Who would've thought this was possible on an ?! Overall, awesome app, and beautifully designed! I it!! :]
Great app

I have a full review up at iphoneworld.ca, but to cut it short, I haven't seen a negative review of this app that I agreed with. I like it, and if used properly, so will you.

I use this application so much and absolutely love it! It has so many possibilities = ). Fun to use pictures doctored with other applications such as ImageTouch, Vingo, & others.
The authors of this app responded in less than 1 day when I emailed with a few requests. Very nice too! If you are trying to decide to buy, I feel it is well worth $3! ~JagKarizma

Fun to use, very cute. Good even for everyday pictures & situations. I'd like to be able to go on vacation sometime soon and actually get to use it for its true purpose. Would love to see more styles, though.
BUY THIS APP! IT IS WORTH IT!

I NEVER have written a review before, but this app is incredible. It is also very addicting so make sure you have some time to explore it after you download it. I had a couple of questions and received an email back from Jens within hours. Thank you, Jens! This app is also great for creating wallpaper for your iPhone. I created great wallpaper by using one of the templates with four pictures. In case I ever lose my iPhone, in the text field, I wrote "If found, call (phone number)." Prior to seeing Lifecards, I was contemplating getting other apps like Wallpaper Labeler or If Found+ to do the same thing. However, once I discovered Lifecards, I realized I could do the same thing and tons more. I travel a lot so I am looking foward to making postcards for family and friends during my travels. THANK YOU TO THE CREATORS OF LIFECARDS!!!!
DELIVERS!!

Does EXACTLY what it says! It also has, wait for it...instructions, unlike virtually every other app out there. Very stable app, well designed and implemented. Tons of postcard types. Extremely user friendly. To all app developers out there: LOOK AND LEARN! Thanks
How fun!

I downloaded this app on a whim and I am so glad I did! Makes photos really pop. The card layouts are beautiful. I can't wait to try this out while on vacation, or even to just dress up an everday photo. I have had no technical problems. I think most people complaining of issues did not follow proper protocol by rebooting. I highly recommend this app.
Exactly what I was looking for!

I travel alot so I very much like the concept of this app. It allows you to send photo's in a postcard format to friends and family (or torture your co-workers LOL) while your on your journey. Optional postcard backgrounds, alternate font styles and colors allow for some great personalization. Better still you can save the finished product for later use if you want to wait for a WiFi hot spot instead of using your paid data connection which can be pricy while travelling.
Loving Lifecards!

This app offers a nice selection of templates allowing you to share between one and four(?) photos at a time. A variety of template layouts, similar in concept to mac Pages, offer more or less photos and text boxes. Reasonable font, font size, font color and text alignment controls. Easy and fun to use... I just can't stop playing with it!
Great app but....

I used the Zapfino font style and the bottom portion of the letter "g" was cut off. Thought maybe it was just displayed in the app that way due to space constraints, so I emailed the finished card to myself and sure enough the bottom portion of the "g" was still cut off!! This needs to be fixed.

It's fun, creative and pretty easy to use. I like the ability to make a stamp for the postcards but the font size scrolling freezes and it is annoying. Fix that and it's a five star application.
This is FUN

If you're on vacation and don't have anything else to do sitting in the shade around the pool, this is the app for you. It has a lot of templates for making your own post cards/greeting cards and a good assortment of fonts that can be colored to coordinate with the photos.
Really cool

I love this app. It is just really smooth. You can pan around the card, change text, move photos. It is really the way a card app should be. It also has a huge pile of card-templates to choose from.

Elegant designs, and fun fun fun all the way. I've been playing around with it for a couple of weeks now because I wanted to be fair in my review. I would love to see some Fun Retro Upscale designs in the next upgrade. Current designs are fantastic, just beautiful!

This is a potentially great app but it needs an update. On the iPhone text display at any resolution is terrible. Would like to see more portrait orientation options and option to freely position and layer pasted images. Stamps? Thanks!
Low Resolution

This would be great but emailing the card is very small low resolution. This makes the application useless!

I really love the idea of this App. I would give it 5 stars if the end resolution were not so small that it renders the post card illegible. The App is simple to use and a fantastic idea. Please fix the resolution issue and I would happily change my review to 5 stars.
