Coolibah app review: for those who love scrapbooking

Reviews

Introduction

Scrapbooking isn't just a hobby; for some, it's more of a lifestyle option where you start to see things in terms of how you can scrapbook that memory, event, or moment. It doesn't matter if you live for scrapbooking or just see it as a cute thing to do here and there; the Coolibah app is meant for you. This app can be used on your iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone and allows you to make virtual scrapbooks that give you the freedom to be creative with all your pages. It's one of the cutest scrapbook apps on the iOS.

Why Choose Digital Scrapbooking

So you may be wondering what’s the big deal about digital scrapbooking, why would you want to do that instead of a physical scrapbook? Well there are a few reasons. First there is the fact you don’t have to deal with any of the mess of cutting, gluing, and all the rest. Not only that but it saves you plenty of time by offering it as a digital medium. Finally, when you’ve got a digital scrapbook it means you can access it from anywhere, which allows you to show off all your creations to friends and family because it’s always with you.

This app hasn't had an update in quite a while now and unfortunately its customer ratings aren't especially high. What I find a bit disappointing about the app is the quality. The graphics are just extremely poor and low-resolution which really impacts how your scrapbook ends up looking.

Features and Tools of Scrapbooking

Just as you would expect there are a selection of features and tools to make the scrapbooking experience creative. You can do things such as adding text, frames, drop shadows and more to your photos. You are given a large number of kits to use and experiment with. The app gives you unlimited pages and albums to use, more than 50 fonts to choose from, and editing options. You also have the ability to share pages by email, Tumblr, Twitter, and Facebook.

I do feel the user comments have been a bit harsh with this one in some regards but in others they are right on the money. The app feels very slow and cumbersome as you use it, this could do with the fact it is in strong need of an update.

Final Thoughts

The Coolibah app for your iPad, iPod touch, and iPhone allows you to create a virtual scrapbook but it just leaves the user wanting and expecting more, unfortunately. Despite the fact it’s free there are better options out there.
