How do you send photos to grandparents who don't use apps?

FamilyLetter texts your family for photos each month, prints them on a 4×6 postcard, and mails it. One household costs $35, postage included.

The photos come from everyone, not just you

Up to five family members get a text each month. Everyone adds a photo or a note. You approve the final card.

  • Private text link for each contributor, no accounts
