Try the same task
Use one landscape holiday photo you own, the note “Thinking of you after our trip. Love, Alex”, and one real recipient address in the United States. Use the same photo, words, and address in both builders. This is a reproducible walkthrough based on documentation; it is not a timed test.
Paper Plane Post: open the maker, upload the photo, keep the original-photo front, enter the note and address, and review both sides before paying. The output is one 4 × 6 photo postcard with the note and address on the back. Open the maker
Postagram’s documented flow uses its app: select the photo, add the note and recipient, and order. The output is one printed photo postcard mailed to that person. Documented workflow
Stop before payment to compare the crop, line breaks, address, and total. If you order a sample later, judge the delivered print separately from the on-screen preview.

What switching involves
Keep the original photo and a copy of your message, then enter the recipient again in the other builder. Review the crop and line breaks because the layouts differ. A design, saved address, scheduled order, or unused balance is not assumed to transfer.
We did not verify an export or import path between Postagram and Paper Plane Post, or a way to move credits or outstanding orders. Leave any paid or scheduled order with the service that accepted it; check its status there before placing another.
Before moving a recurring habit, check the destination list and try one card with the same photo and note. Paper Plane Post sends one card at a time and estimates delivery at 1–2 weeks in the US, plus up to 1 week if abroad; check whether that timing fits the occasion. Destinations and delivery
