Which photos can I print?

With Print Studio you can print any photos you can access in your iPhone's photo library, including all Albums, Moments, iCloud, as well as your Instagram photos.

How big can I print an iPhone photo?

Photos taken on an iPhone 6 or earlier are 3264 x 2448 px and we can print these up to 20" x 30". Photos taken on a 6s or later are 3024 x 4032 px and we can print these up to 30" x 45" as our largest print: The Wall Filler.

Some sites and services recommend that you don't print iPhone larger than 16" x 24", but really this depends on viewing distance. If you print an iPhone photo at 100dpi (30x40 inches) and look at it from 3 feet, the resolution looks as good as a 16" x 24" print at close quarters.

How big can I print a selfie?

The front-facing "selfie" camera on an iPhone is a bit lower resolution than the back camera. The maximum size we can print a selfie taken on an iPhone 6s or later is 16" x 24". A selfie taken on an earlier iPhone can be printed at most 8" x 12". However with the new iPhone X you will be able to print selfies much larger. Full details to come...

What about Instagram photos?

Our app can access and print your Instagram photos. We have a variety of products design just for them, like our Square Prints, Photostrips, and Posters. Because Instagram compresses photos after you upload them, the maximum size we can print Instagram photos is 5" x 5".

Can I print live photos?

Yes! If you select a live photo to print, we will print the still you see before you force-touch to animate it.

Can I print panoramic photos?

Yes! We offer a 12" x 36" print size designed just for panoramic photos. We can print these on Paper, Metal, and Wood.

Why use Print Studio?

Print Studio is our much-imitated beautifully-designed app. We were one of the first iPhone and Instagram printing apps and we've been perfecting the software for five years now.

Our app has been featured many times in the App Store, we have over 2,000 five star reviews, and we do all our printing in California. We're a small independent company with no outside investors and we answer to no one but you.

Can I print iPhone photos from my computer?

Yes! If you don't want to use the app, you can always use our website Social Print Studio. Just access your iCloud on your computer, then drag and drop images onto our website. You can also airdrop the photos to your computer over your wifi.

How to Change Photo Size to Print from Your iPhone

Sometimes adjusting the print size on your iPhone still doesn't give you the paper size you want when printing photos. To adjust the print size for a photo when printing from your iPhone, you may need to crop the photo in the Photos app first.

1. Open the Photos app and select the photo you wish to crop.
2. Tap Edit.
3. Select the Crop icon.
4. Now select the Frame icon at the top of the screen.
5. You can now select from landscape or portrait modes, and various preset cropping ratios.
6. Tap Done in the lower-right corner when you're finished cropping.

Common cropping ratios for printing a photo using your iPhone are 8:10, 2:3, and 5:7. You can select the option that looks best for the photo you are printing.
