Nations Photo Lab review

Nations Photo Lab brings a professional lab's paper choices to a phone app. The iPhone app lets you upload from the Photos app, Instagram, Facebook or Google Photos, review and crop each image, then check out. Its prints page lists lustre, glossy, pearl, linen and giclee papers, plus canvas, metal, acrylic, mounted and framed prints, and says its prints last over 100 years in typical home display conditions. Photo prints start at $0.59 and giclee prints at $4.75, and shipping is free on most orders of $89 or more. The site was running up to 50% off when we checked, so the price you see may differ. It ranks eighth because each print costs more than the free-print apps, shipping below $89 adds to small orders, and the app has a small base of about 2.3K ratings, at 4.7. We compared documented features and published prices.
