So, I'm a little confused. This is something I do myself pretty regularly but there are conflicting things here for me.

The photos I usually want to print are almost never ones taken on my phone. And because the photos I actually send to people are from my camera I end up using my PC and just upload them to the company and choose the location. Costco, Walmart, Target all offer the ability to print at various locations.

I guess I don't see the benefit here. Driving to the store is the inconvenience in the end. That's why people attach photos or upload them on Facebook instead these days. Perhaps if it automatically snail-mailed the photo to a family member it would be more useful. But even my 70+ year old grandparents prefer I email them photos now anyway.

Edit - Just to add some context, I'm a father with multiple kids with parents and grandparents who demand photos of them every day. :)
