Polarsteps was fabulous for documenting our trip! We ordered one of the travel books after a month long vacation and while the price was high the quality was extremely good.
I love this app
I love this app. Tracking my trips, being able to create my trip blog in an easy manner!, friends being able to send messages while traveling is a super nice booster , and being able to create a book from my trips is amazing! The app is super user-friendly and gives really nice statistics of each trip which i find pretty nice! The app already suggests and creates the book for printing but it is also nice that it let’s you edit according to picture allocation preference. 😍😍

Its a fabulous souvenir and very easy to make.
Do NOT order printed books POLAR STEPS. BUYER BEWARE!
Do NOT order printed books from this company. Terrible experience.
Upon ordering, you are not told when you order will arrive until AFTER you place the order. Once you place the order and you are given a large delivery window, you are NOT allowed to cancel, even if you immediately cancel. This is a poor business practice if you are trying to order to a holiday or event.
