Is there a way to turn your Photo Stream into a printed photo book, complete with comments? I would like to print out a book of one of my photo streams and want the comments to print out on each photo as well. Is there an app for that? Or an easy way to do it?
iPhone 6, iOS 9
The Photos.app on iOS9 does not support photo books. Or do you want to create the book on a Mac?
I am open to creating the book with any product really. Was hoping there was some app either on the phone or Mac that could do this easily.
Both iPhoto an Photos on the Mac can create beautiful books, but neither of them can extract the comments from a Photo Stream and write them to the text fields in the books. There is not even an easy way to copy the comments from the shared albums to the captions or titles of the photos. So I don't know how to pass easily them to a third party app to create the book.
See this Apple webpage: Create your own books, calendars, cards, and prints right from iPhoto.
But how to extract the Photo Stream comments and include them in the book, other than copy and pasting them manually? I have not seen any tool to access them, neither in iPhoto, nor Aperture, nor Photos. When I want to save the photo stream comments, I have to copy and paste them individually, a lot of work.
i would LOVE this too. I wish there was a way to do this.
I was able to select specific photos in My Photo Stream and use the File ➙ New Album menu option to create an album with those photos.
There are two caveats to the above: 1 - I don't use iCloud Photo Library; 2 - the My Photo Stream photos are automatically imported into my library.
Right, OT. The big question in this case is how to easily copy the comments from a shared album to a photo book.
Apple's renaming "Shared Photo Streams" to "Shared Albums" is confusing the terminology. First of all, shared albums do not have the properties of albums, because we cannot sort them, but people expect them to have properties like albums, and it is hard to refer to them across system versions. When this thread started the Shared albums were still shared Photo Streams.
Can you turn your Photo Stream into a photo book, with comments?
