A month, on paper.

The Monthly Issue is the lightest way to keep a record of your life: add up to 35 photos as the month goes by, and a printed magazine arrives when it ends, for $33 a month with standard US shipping included. Twelve of them make a year you can hold.

What a month looks like

Your issue opens the day you subscribe and shows its closing date from the first screen. Add photos all month, up to 35. Collection closes on the final day of the displayed window, a designer edits the issue, and it is printed and shipped with standard US shipping included.

Twelve issues, kept in order

A month is enough life to fill a magazine and short enough that nothing feels like homework. Over a year the issues become a shelf of spines in order.

The subscription, plainly

$33 per month plus tax. The cycle starts the day you subscribe and renews on the same date each month. Cancel any time from Settings or by asking support. Keep your delivery address current before the issue closes.

Monthly, seasonal, or single

Monthly holds 35 photos for $33 a month. Seasonal holds 45 photos for $36 every three months across Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter. A Single Issue holds 45 photos for $39, once. You can make a Single or Group Issue at any time while subscribed.

Shipping

Standard US shipping is included. International addresses receive a live shipping estimate at checkout.

When does a Monthly Issue close?

A Monthly Issue collects photos through the final day of its displayed monthly window. Lately shows the active deadline in the app so you can finish captions, favorites, and your final review before the issue closes.

Does my magazine ship automatically?

Monthly and Seasonal plans renew automatically until canceled. A Monthly Issue is prepared for each monthly cycle, while a Seasonal Issue follows its three-month season. Keep your shipping address current and complete the issue requirements shown in Lately before the collection window closes.

When can I change a shipping address?

You can change an issue address until it is handed to the print partner. US shipping remains included. If the new destination adds international shipping cost, the app shows an estimate and collects the difference before changing the address. After print handoff, the address is locked.
