Memorability: No-print iPad scrapbook

Memorability takes a slightly different route than other digital photo books by being an iPad-only scrapbook, meaning there will be no capability to print your digital creations. This gives busy people a new creative way to enjoy the hundreds of photos you store on your device.

The app comes with pre-designed templates that can be customized with text and even voice recordings. The albums are saved locally on the tablet and will stay on the company’s servers for up to 30 days. You can share the books on Facebook or through email as well. The premium version of the app is free in the iTunes App Store and will remain free after the launch period. However, upgrading to the full version then will cost you $3.99.
