Overall fantastic! Wish contributors could decide on a 'no prompt' option for any freeform thoughts. Thanks!

Thank you so much for the kind words! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the experience. Love the idea of a ‘no prompt’ option for freeform thoughts - we’ll keep it in mind as we plan future updates.

The recipient was very happy with her book and overall I would recommend it. I found the overall process a little confusing so it would be helpful if all of the steps were a little more clear up front. Also, the answers ended up being broken into multiple pages per respondent. This not only made the book a lot more pages (more $) than it needed to be, but the flow of the book was a little strange because of it.

We're happy to hear the recipient loved the book! Thanks so much for giving us a try. The number of pages is determined by the number and type of prompts, and the amount people write in response. You do have control over the order in which responses and contributors appear in the book, which can impact the length. The design of the book also emphasizes space on each page in order to highlight each respondent (vs. trying to fit as much as possible on each page). That more "minimalist" look might not be for everyone and we look forward to giving more flexibility in the design in future. Either way, it sounds like this could be made more clear on the project page, so we'll explore some ways to do that. Thank you again for taking the time to write a review, we appreciate the feedback!

Kith and Kin is a great find! I made a book for my Dad's 80th birthday as a tribute to his amazing life. I loved the prompts and the ease of use for the contributors and the one making the book. Limited options for edits, made it turnkey for me to pull it all together. Easy to use for those of all ages. I would have loved for them to be able to submit more than 1 photo, and to increase the font size. I would also have liked to be able to see it in book layout form instead of just a pdf. I would have maybe rearranged some responses so the photos and contributions could have been on the same two pages side by side. But it did the job and the quality of the book and the printed photos was as good as any of these publishers I have used (Shutterfly, Minted, Apple Books etc.) HIGHLY RECOMMEND and will use again.

Thank you, Katie! We're so pleased you loved the book and we hope your Dad did to. We appreciate all your feedback and look forward to making some of these changes soon. We look forward to seeing you back for another occasion!

Cool books are created... a little hard to do from your phone... need to be able to log-in and upload photos from your phone...
Response from Kith and Kin· May 4, 2023
We appreciate you giving us a try! You can use either a computer, or a laptop or tablet to start a project, or contribute to one. We recommend using the one you're most comfortable doing as you said - logging into a website, and uploading photos. Thank you!

The final product looks great, the owners are quick to respond to questions, the product is easy to create and delivery was quick. I give it a 3.5. However, there are limitations to developing the book: -Too many pages are used for each contribution - text style is fixed ( can't do bold or italics) -prompts should indicate more flexibility -the contributors' names are in light font on the side of the page and can't be changed

We're certainly happy to hear that you liked the look of the product, and it was easy to create. We look forward to adding additional customization options in the near future so people have more control over how the contributions appear - including fonts, sizes, rich text, etc. We really appreciate your feedback and thank you for taking the time to share it!
