Pixum lets you turn personal pictures into photo books and other photo products, with book design available online, in the Pixum app, or in Pixum Photo World software. Choose landscape, portrait, or square formats, with hardcover, softcover, or booklet binding. The app’s MagicBooks feature arranges selected photos automatically and offers suggestions you can customise; it also supports drag-and-drop layouts, text, clipart, background colours, and stickers. Photo World adds templates, layouts, maps, GPS routes, QR-linked video, and editing tools. Page capacity varies by binding and format: classic binding supports up to 202 pages, layflat up to 130, and the small square book up to 74. Pixum lists a free plan and UK print prices from £9.95 for a small square booklet; other listed books range from £22.95 to £69.95. The inside pages of all its photo books are FSC-certified. Pixum says uploaded images stay in a private online gallery for 28 days, saved projects for up to 36 months, and production data for up to 12 weeks after delivery.
