Send Holiday Cards Right from Your iOS Device

ByMike Moffit

The holidays are a time for sending cards, right? I don’t receive many cards throughout the year, but December is a different story. The cards seem to roll in and my fridge becomes covered with my friends’ and family’s cute cards.

These days, there are numerous online card sites for creating and ordering your own cards that makes it easier than ever. The holiday season is also insanely busy for a lot of people (especially those who work in retail!), so if you’d like to send out a card but feel as if you won’t have time to stuff, address and mail numerous envelopes, consider sending them from you iOS device — saving you time and money!

Here are some great Holiday card apps that are worth taking a look at:

Martha Stewart CraftStudio – Free — Of course she has a card app…she’s Martha after all! Create cards for any occasion and then share them digitally, print out or send to Snapfish to be printed.

Red Stamp – Free — This is the app I use for sending cards and it is easy-peasy! Great templates to choose from with great fonts and colors to make your card look highly professional. Again, you can send digitally or have it sent to be printed.

Vintage Christmas Cards – $1.99 — For those of you who celebrate Christmas and prefer a more traditional, vintage looking Christmas card, this is just the app for you. With over 100 different cards pulled from the Victorian Era to Post-War America, you’ll have some great cards to choose from.

Lifecards – $1.99 — If you’re more into the postcard style of sending a card, this is a great app. Scroll through all those photos on your phone and create a great photo collage to send to you friends and family!

  • Seven Siri Tricks

    Siri is great for resolving trivia disputes, setting reminders and even texting or sending email but Siri is also a talented assistant. Here’s a few of the more non-intuitive tasks Siri can accomplish:

    1) Split up that restaurant bill and add a tip

    Ask Siri “What’s a 20% tip on a $105 bill split among 3 people and Siri will not only tell you what the total tip would be but also how much each of the 3 owes.

    2) Flip a coin

    Siri will bail you out if you do not have a coin to flip if you ask her to flip a coin. Or if you are killing time and want to play dice, ask Siri to “throw the dice”.

    3) Counting Calories

    Siri can help! Ask Siri how many calories are in that Big Mac and Siri will tell you that you are consuming 520 calories.

    4) Take a Selfie

    Ready to take that selfie and find yourself looking for the camera app? Just tell Siri to take a selfie and boom!, the camera app will open. Siri isn’t smart enough, yet, to ensure you have the front facing camera active so you might have to click that first.

    5) Name that Tune

    Siri integrates with Shazam to listen to the music. Ask Siri “What is this song?” and with some help from Shazam, Siri will let you know and if you click on the result it will play that song if you are a subscriber to Apple Music.

    6) Find your Friends

    If you use the Find My Friends app you can ask Siri to find them by asking “Where’s my wife?” and assuming that your wife has agreed to share her location in the Find My Friends app, Siri will let you know where she is.

    7) Convert Currency

    If you are traveling out of the country you can use Siri to make those currency conversions. Asking Siri “What is 100 euros worth?” today reveals it is worth $112.49.
