CVS Photo review

CVS Photo works much like Walgreens: you order from your phone and pick up prints the same day. The CVS Health app says you can order prints from your device and online albums for same-day pickup at select stores and products. Many people use the Photo Prints Now app instead, a CVS photo partner made by MEA Mobile, which prints on Kodak Moments paper, sends orders to any CVS location for 1 hour pickup, and also offers home delivery. It lists 4x6, 5x7 and 8x10 prints, 6x6 and 8x8 square prints, wallet and panoramic prints, canvas, print panels in acrylic, bamboo and wood, posters and magnets. It ranks below Walgreens because we could not load CVS pricing pages from our location to verify a current USD price, and because same day pickup depends on the store. Photo Prints Now holds a 4.9 rating from about 305K ratings. We compared documented features and published prices.
