How to print your photos in 1 hour with Picsart

You can now turn your photos into real prints, posters, magnets, and more, and have them in your hands the same day. 1 Hour Photo lets you order physical photo products straight from Picsart and pick them up at a nearby CVS, Walgreens, or Duane Reade in about an hour, or have them delivered to your door. It is only available for customers in the US.

Most photos never make it off the screen. They sit in your camera roll, get a few likes, and disappear into the scroll. 1 Hour Photo closes that gap. The shot you edited last night can be a framed print or a new magnet on your fridge by this afternoon.

What you can make with 1 Hour Photo

1 Hour Photo covers more than standard prints. You can order classic photo prints in common sizes, photo books, canvas prints, custom mugs, magnets, and more, all from images you already have or just finished editing.

The appeal is how personal these products feel. A mug with your dog’s face is a better gift than anything generic. Magnets turn a wall or fridge into a rotating gallery of trips, pets, and people you actually like. Prints give a favorite shot a place in the real world instead of a folder you forget to open.

How it works: pickup or delivery

The flow is built to be quick. Inside Picsart, you’ll choose your photos, pick a product, and click Send to Print. From there, you get two options with 1 Hour Photo: store pickup or home delivery.

For pickup, your order is sent to a nearby CVS, Walgreens, or Duane Reade and is usually ready in about an hour. Since these chains have thousands of US locations, there is a good chance one sits close to home, work, or wherever you already run errands.

For home delivery, your prints and products ship directly to your address instead, which is handy for more custom gift options. 

Get your photos ready before you print

A print only looks as good as the file behind it, so a little prep goes a long way. Crop to the right shape, brighten dull lighting, and clean up anything distracting before you order. You can handle all of that in the Picsart Photo Editor so the version you print is the version you actually want on your wall, in your frame, or on your fridge.

If a photo feels soft or low-resolution, run it through the Photo Enhancer first. Print is less forgiving than a phone screen, and a quick fix beforehand saves you from a blurry custom physical product you cannot return.
