You will know which trip content is used in the Photobook, what you can edit and when a print preview is created.

1. Review the trip before starting the Photobook

The Photobook is built from your Trip Timeline. Before starting, check the daily headlines, places and selected images in the trip.

Every travel day does not need the same amount of detail. What matters is that the important stages and memories remain recognizable.

Add any missing daily headlines and places.
Choose photos that matter to the story of the journey.

Before starting the Photobook, review the daily headline, main place, note and up to 14 selected images.1 of 2

2. Customize the cover, map and day pages

In the Photobook preview, you can adjust the cover, route map, day pages and photo selection. Optional budget and statistics pages can also be included.

Keep only the pages and images that contribute to the story. A calm, well-edited book is usually stronger than the most complete possible collection.

Adjust the cover and route map to suit your trip.
Check every day page for appropriate images and content.

In the page editor, you can change the headline, select and reorder photos and edit the note for the printed page.1 of 2

3. Design your pages in the Layout Editor

Open a supported page in the live Photobook preview and tap Layout Editor below it. Start with the automatically generated template. The editor supports photo, day, introduction, custom, budget/statistics and closing pages.

One object is selected when the editor opens. Tap a photo or text block to move it. Use the corner handle to resize photos proportionally and the rotation handle to turn them. Changing a text block’s width reflows the text; adjust font size separately. The pencil opens text editing.

Use the palette for borders and shadows, and choose a background color for text. Drag items in Layers to change their order. Use Select to choose multiple elements and group them. Alignment guides snap automatically as you move objects.

Tap an empty area to deselect. Photos can reach the page edge.
Add photos and text with the corresponding buttons. Photos added in the editor also appear in Page settings.
Save keeps your layout; Cancel discards the edit. Check the result in the live preview.

Select an object directly on the page to move, resize proportionally, rotate and style it.

4. Use up to 14 photos per travel day

Each travel day supports up to 14 photos in total, including a header photo. The first six keep the existing day layout. From photo seven, WanderSpend automatically adds a photo spread for photos 7 to 14.

The additional photos appear in a separate DayCard row with a note about the new spread. The live preview immediately shows your Photobook growing.

Order your photos so the first six tell the story on the day page.
You can customize the additional photo spread in the Layout Editor too.

5. Your Photobook data stays local while you edit

While you edit the Photobook, the preview stays on your device. You can review and adjust the content and selection in your own time.

Only when you explicitly create a print preview are the selected Photobook photos and page settings transferred for secure rendering.

Take time to review the selection and order of the content.
Create the print preview only when you are happy with the book.

6. Create the print preview with a stable connection

WanderSpend needs a stable internet connection to create the print preview. Check the pages, images and selected options once more beforehand.

The print preview is the final step before your travel book is prepared for printing.

Create the print preview over a stable Wi-Fi or mobile connection.
Review the book carefully before placing the final print order.
