How to edit your book

You can change the text and the illustrations yourself — it takes a couple of minutes. Here’s how.

  1. 1

    Open the book in your library

    First, find the book you want to change.

    The “My Library” button in the menu and a book card in the library
    1. 1Tap “My Library”.
    2. 2Choose the book.

    Open the page where you want to change the text or the illustration.

  2. 2

    How to change the text

    Open the page you want to change.

    A book page: the text field and the “Save the text” button
    1. 1Tap the text and edit it right in the field.
    2. 2Tap “Save the text”.

    Your changes are saved for that page.

  3. 3

    How to change an illustration

    On the page, tap “Regenerate” under the picture and describe what to change — for example, “Grandma doesn’t look like herself”.

    The “Change this illustration” window: a field for your request and the “Regenerate” button
    1. 1Write your request in the field.
    2. 2Tap “Regenerate”.

    You can also tap a quick suggestion: “Doesn’t look like…”, “Remove the extra person” or “Show … face closer”.

If you ordered a printed book

After you pay for the printed book, you have 12 hours to make changes — then it goes to print and can’t be changed. So leaf through the whole book once more before you order.
