Not great
Interface is clunky. There was no way to delete pages. If you change anything, you have to always go back to the beginning of your photo library. When I first logged in, it gave me a promo code but didn’t save it anywhere so by the time I finished the project, I had forgotten it.
App and OS version don’t work together.
I used motif before mimeo bought it and loved it. However, this year, I just spent hours building a photobook for my husband’s 60th birthday and the purchase process has failed five times…gets stuck uploading. I’m on solid internet and have been in chat with support three times since I started this project. If you create a book in the mobile app, you can’t open it on your MacBook in iPhoto. The app and the MacBook are separate and don’t talk to each other. Apparently my photobook on my phone is too big to upload and it has failed five times the mimeo help just says “we value your feedback”. It appears that they have a few kinks to work out. I will not use Motif again and recommend that others use caution. Update - changed from 1 to 3 stars. I was able to process the order from my iPad, it arrived earlier than expected and is beautiful. However the mobile app and the OS app are not compatible, you can’t go back and forth between mobile device and laptop.
Difficult to use
I found the web site app and all the platforms hard to use and not intuitive to what I was trying to accomplish.

THANK GOD YOUR HERE!
Ive been missing the ability to make photo books, I have 7 more to do, since Apple stopped. Motif is great, quality is superb. Still trying to figure out a couple of details with the program but the results so far have been fantastic! Thank you, Monica
Good alternative
Since apple’s elimination of the in-app photo book creation feature, Mimeo has been a good alternative. However, after having made several projects throughout the years, Mimeo discontinued my account without notifying me, making it almost impossible to purchase projects that I created 😢. (Note: can’t buy your projects without an account: no buy as guest option). In addition, I encountered issues accessing photos saved to my iPhone (using 14 Pro Max), but found work arounds to resolve this. Also discovered that Mimeo:Print Your memories & Mimeo Photo are the same exact app…. Outside of that, it’s simple to use and somewhat convenient 👍
Intuitive Calendar Customization App
Calendar customization is intuitive and changes/edits are easy. It would be beneficial if you could order a reduced cost product to review/edit before making a commitment to order multiple calendars. Disappointed that Motif did not offer a Black Friday or cyber Monday deal or at least offer a quantity discount (I ordered 28 calendars) and/or free shipping. Satisfied with the quality of the calendars I have ordered previously.
