Overview
You can send any photo in your Snapfish account to any mobile phone in the U.S. in a few simple steps. The photos can then be viewed from the phone and saved as wallpaper (the background image on a phone's main screen) or for photo caller ID.
You can also browse and view your Snapfish albums from your mobile phone. You must have a compatible phone to view albums.
All that you need to view photos on your phone is a phone with a color screen and a web browser.
Before using any Snapfish mobile features, it's helpful to add your mobile phone number to your account information. Just click on the "your account" link at the top of most pages, then on 'edit mobile phone' in the personal information section.
Note: For a limited time, Snapfish is offering this service for free. Certain airtime, data, and SMS charges of the wireless operator(s) may apply to you and/or your recipient(s).
