Shakesperry Flower Shop app review: send your message with flowers

Introduction

With Valentine's Day just around the corner we've got the perfect app for you. The Shakesperry Flower Shop allows you to send your messages with a virtual bouquet of flowers. This app can be used on your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone and lets you share these beautiful bouquets on Twitter, Facebook, and by email. This is a great way to show someone you are thinking about him or her without having to spend a fortune. As well this is great if you don’t actually live close to someone but still want to acknowledge him or her on that day.

Just because you want to show someone you care doesn't mean you have to spend a fortune on flowers. Yes this app is great for Valentine's Day, but it also works for other occasions or just to say you're thinking of that someone special. You are able to put together your own virtual bouquet that is customized to the recipient's liking. You also have the ability to create a card to go along with the bouquet. By posting the bouquet to your recipient’s social network you’ll be showing everyone just how special that person is to you.

Yes this can be used for a boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, or wife, but let’s not forget all the other people who are special in your life too. It doesn’t have to be about romance; it’s about showing people that they are thought of in a special way by you. As mentioned, you can share the bouquet by email, Twitter, and Facebook.

The app has recently been updated so there are all new items that are perfect for Valentine's Day, plus there were bug fixes and improvements made to the add text option.

Using the App

Creating a customized bouquet and including a card is quick and simple thanks to this app. Use it for Valentine's Day, birthdays, anniversaries, Mother's Day, and any other event/occasion. There are all kinds of flowers offered and even plants if you'd rather send those. The app is free to download and use; however, there are in-app purchases that range from $0.99 to $4.99. These just give you more items to choose from.

Using the app is incredibly simple but there is a real lack of items available in the free version. You are only given a small handful of flowers and that’s it. I do like that as you personalize the greeting you can move the flower(s) and text around on the screen to make it appear the way you want. You can also change the color of the text.

Pros and Cons

Pros

• Simple and quick to use
• The user interface is clean and uncluttered
• Include a text message with the virtual bouquet
• Share your bouquet by email, Facebook, and Twitter

Cons

• There are very little flowers offered in the free version
• There is a lack of editing and personalization features/tools

Final Thoughts

While the Shakesperry Flower Shop app for your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone is very simple to use I do find it lacks in the personalization tools. Your virtual bouquet looks rather basic even after adding text.
