Great way of letting others enjoy your trip
I really like the app as it is an easy way to inform people where you are, what you are doing. It's very easy in use and after you can fix your photobook in know time. It was the first time I used polarsteps, will definitely use it again.
Fabulous quality hardback photo album.
Good combination
Android-App and Internet Webpage are logical and great. The printed photobook also looks very good.
Everything spools for ages
Everything spools for ages - doesn’t seem to be able to play a 30 second video without spooling! Ruins reviewing pics & videos for me.

Amazing travel app
I was introduced to Polarsteps by a friend. It's such an amazing app and I now use it for every trip; either for my own reference or to share with friends and family where I am without posting on social media. My mum and I travelled together recently and I ordered her the photo book of the trip. She absolutely loved it. The quality was amazing, the layouts beautiful and it was so easy to edit.
Highly recommend
A great app, with a fantastic unique product
The app is brilliant for recording your travels and letting family and friends track your holiday and view your photos as you publish them. The real plus is the travel book you can get published at the end of your travels. A unique lasting memory for a reasonable price.
It was easy to use
It was easy to use. I was able to choose where my photos would go, re-arrange it and it came out exactly what the preview was like. I like that it saved my photos through the app and also as my location was on, it showed the way we went on the trip. I love the book we ordered.
From online journaling your trip to a photobook on your shelve!
You can log your whole trip from beginning till end. Your friends and family can follow you on your trip. And with a few clicks your trip is a photobook on your shelve with all the steps and pictures of your trip. It has never been this easy!

A beautiful souvenir of our trip!
We had Polar Steps create a photo book about our safari trip. We appreciated being able to add more photos afterward. The book is beautifully produced with lovely colors, sturdy paper, and a very good binding. A wonderful souvenir of our trip! Exceeded our expectations!
