What’s this… a competent acknowledgement card app not called C@rds? I’ve exclusive tried a couple of other apps in this category and, until now, C@rds was the exclusive digit that was truly worthwhile.
Postage by RogueSheep oozes calibre in most areas and it also does things a bit differently. While Hot Chili Apps sells comprehensive acknowledgement card sets both a la carte and via C@rds Master, Postage sports a collection of e-cards that span a bunch of assorted genres and all crapper be had for a single price. There are over 60 game spread out over 12 card genres: Simple, Halloween, Frames, Cards (as in stationery-style), Love, Cutouts, Travel, Comic, Announcements, Organic, Letters (also similar to stationery), and Moms and Dads.
There’s a lot of variety in Postage and, modify though the book direction isn’t all that versatile compared to what Hot Chili offers, it’s ease a rattling good app that’s worth considering if this is what you’re in the mart for.
The card-building approach in Postage is rattling methodical in that it kind of walks you downbound a virtual assembly line. First you opt your card music with the side-scrolling icons at the bottom of the screen, then you opt your template. If the model supports photos, and most of them do, that comes next. After photos you intend to input your own text, then ordered style (alignment, book size) and color, and the last travel is to deal your new creation via email or Facebook or save it to your camera roll.
The whole process of antiquity a card is caretaker cushy and RogueSheep has finished a enthusiastic job with how photos are placed and messed with. When you stick a picture into a template, bit and rotate are finished with the usual two-finger gestures, and applying a filter to your pic takes meet digit tap. The more multipurpose filters are Black & White, Sepia, Brighten, Glow, and Soften, and if you feel same effort wacky you crapper also invert the pic so it looks same a negative or apply red/green/blue tinting.
As I already mentioned, though, book options are kind of limited. The C@rds apps that I’ve been so ga-ga for over the past year allow you to locate your book anywhere in some filler and in pretty such some color, and blocks of book crapper be edited individually. Postage’s text, however, is meant to go in exclusive digit locate on each model and you can’t intend too creative with printing because some presented template’s book is treated as a single unit. In other words, if you poverty digit articulate to be big, they’re all big, and if you poverty digit articulate to be red, they’re all red. On the plus side, you do intend to enlarge or shrink the book block and the app module auto-wrap your words, so it’s not all bad.
RogueSheep is definitely competing at a high take with Postage, and if the book options could be swollen I think this app would give C@rds a earnest run for its money. It already has C@rds beat in the pricing category, and I same that the entire day card ordered (available for acquire separately) was recently additional in a free update. Will more sets same Christmas and Valentine’s Day also intend additional to the main app at no cost? I dunno, but I hope so!
Postage and day Postage are both high calibre apps, so if you same sending e-cards these are both worthy choices. As of right now… and mayhap forever and ever… you’ll intend more year-round use per dollar with Postage than you module with C@rds, so if you’re willing to attain some concessions in the (text) features department then I’d say cough up the $5 for the full app and pay your real-world postage savings elsewhere.
