A Card You Can Feel Good About

What's great about this app is not only can you send a card to someone to show how much you care but you can feel good knowing you are promoting awareness of guide dogs. In this app you can select a picture of a guide dog puppy or full-grown dogs, add your own personalized greeting, and then send the card by social media, text/SMS, or email.

There are other customization features such as being able to change the color of the text you use and the ability to choose a frame for your card. To be sure you don't miss a loved one's birthday, anniversary, or other important event, you can create a reminder using your Facebook events or import your Calendar information.

In this latest version of the app there have been some improvements made to the performance and it is now optimized for iOS 7.

Making Your Card

To make your actual card is a very simple and quick process with just a few steps. To begin, pick what frame it is you want to use for the photo, pick a puppy you want to use, choose the picture of the puppy, create your own personalized message for the recipient, and then your card is ready to be sent. The entire process takes just a few minutes.

The app did crash on me the first time I made a card but since then I haven’t encountered any other issues. I find the variety of pictures/dogs and frames to be really fun and give you plenty of different options. I like what the app helps to promote so I feel bad pointing out any negatives here.

The app could definitely improve by offering users even more customization features such as being able to change the font type, size, and the background color. Perhaps even themed frames for common occasions/events would be a good idea.
