The updated Android app is the third mobile app from LifePics that allows users to order photos from a mobile device to any store in the LifePics Network. The company previously released similar apps on for iPhone/iPad and Windows Phone 7. LifePics is the only company offering photo ordering apps across all three major mobile platforms. With the launch of the updated Android app, Android users can now enjoy the benefits of printing photos locally from their Android phones, including fast one hour turnaround times, the convenience of working with trusted photofinishers, and the ability to select from more than 13,000 different pick up locations in the LifePics Network. Users of the LifePics iPhoto plugin can enjoy these same benefits when ordering photos exported by the plugin. The LifePics Android app works on all Android phones, and the iPhoto plugin works on iPhoto versions 10 and above. Both the Android app and iPhoto plugin allow users to connect to an existing LifePics online photo account or create a new account for free.
