The team at Lifepics continues their string of service innovations with the latest announcement focused on the release of a Facebook Ordering app.
The app allows Facebook users to print off any of their Facebook photos, including photos they are tagged in, through their favourite Lifepics lab. Although still at the Beta stage the app has been extensively tested over the past month and is proving to be a robust system. Facebook’s recent announcement that its users can now choose to upload higher resolution photos than the site previously allowed (the new limit of 2048 pixels is up from the previous limit of 720) means new Facebook images can be sufficient to print 8×10 prints which expands the pool of images now available to photo finishers.
Tracy Lints of Photo Direct welcomed the latest announcement by saying “the release of the Facebook app is great news and further underpins the commitment Vahe and the team at Lifepics has in making the online system the hot pick for retailers now and in 2011. The Facebook app has two big benefits as on the one hand it directly links into the world’s largest repository of images while on the other it encourages a significant number of younger consumers who aren’t in-store kiosk users to now print their photos straight from their phones”
