Jacquie Lawson Ecards Reviews

Problem with ecard display on Apple devices running iOS 15 or above We are aware of a problem with ecards not displaying correctly on Apple devices running iOS version 15 and above. On these devices the audio plays correctly but the video does not display at all. The card will play normally if you do one of the following: fast forward the video then replay the card skip to end, then replay the card Our technical team are working to find a solution. However we understand that this error is affecting many other websites which use video, and it appears to have been caused by the recent iOS update, so we are hopeful that a further iOS update will fix the error quickly. THIS PROBLEM FIRST APPEARED IN SEPTEMBER! Apple will not issue refunds if your app is over 3 months old! I purchased my app in May and this problem occurred 4 months later!
DO NOT PURCHASE!
Apple does not stand behind their apps!

I installed JacquieLawsonEcards on my Mini hoping that it would behave better than the web version, but ran into the same issues.

The volume level I select while playing a card tends to set lower than the system volume, but is not stored in cookies or remembered for future cards, so that every card starts out BOOMing music at me as I scramble for the mute button and apologize to otheres nearby.

Even worse is JacquieLawsonEcards 's ability to continue playing music long after the card is closed with the X button and the back arrow is clicked. No way to find the pause or stop button, if it still exists. I even tried to play another card, but the music would not stop until I closed JacquieLawsonEcards . It's outta here!

I signed up, paid for a subscription and when trying to use JacquieLawsonEcards , I was asked to subscribe and then told I’d already done so. It was a merry-go-round type of experience. Next up was a choice to get full access for another $20USD. At that point I wasn’t so enthralled with the whole idea because I thought I was being suckered into paying an additional fee. I tried one more thing under Details, something like Refresh and then it started to work. I wonder if this is common or was I picked out as a test case to see how frustrated one would get before giving up.

I have watched this company grow for years (8 or 9, although I cannot remember exactly) and enjoyed sending them to people around the world. There are none better on the internet.

Even though Jacquie is British, the addition of cards for American and Canadian holidays increased my use. Even though membership has gone up for the years, it is still worth every penny as I always know that I have an ecard to send to a friend and s/he will really appreciate it.

As time goes on, I hope the company adds more Indian holiday cards so that I can send them to my friends there. I am sure all English-speaking countries get the benefit of these cards even now.

If you like to send beautiful cards or notecards to your friends and family, you cannot find a more beautiful set of animated cards that is continually growing than from this company. Additionally, the special animations done that provide the member with the opportunity to purchase for a very low price, provide games and puzzles that are excellently done and can help pull you away from the stresses in your life. I have bought the Christmas calendar ones, as well as the other three (Circus, Curio, Garden) and still use the Curio one on a weekly basis wherever I am traveling in the world.

If you are considering a membership, don’t waste any more time and just do it.

I’ve been purchasing and sending Jacquie Lawson Advent Calendars for several years now and I just enjoy them so much. This year I’m a subscriber to her beautiful e-cards. I love the animation in all the cards and the subscription is well worth it for the unlimited cards I can send. I feel like I get so much more for my money when sending a card to someone instead of an expensive paper card. And everyone I send them to absolutely loves them!

I am a big greeting card fan. I still send handwritten greeting cards throughout the year. My friend started sending me Jacquie Lawson cards last year through my email. Then I realized for a subscription which is currently $30 for two years I could send as many cards as I like. The convenience of being able to send a card from my phone is amazing. The cards are beautifully done and many different styles to choose from.

I’ve had this for a few years now, great service to be able to use, especially during this time to lift spirits! It’s handy, easy & economical. The cards are beautiful & have received comments on how appreciated they are to get. The added benefit of being able to send gift cards is awesome & the phone app is great! I luv playing thru the cards to decide which to send, also the “garden” & advent calendars are great, kids luv to participate & play the games! You keep improving, great product all around!

by R Getts Around

The choices are endless! I especially love the interactive e- cards with puzzles at the end. You can send off a quick card or you can send a deeply thoughtful card with a meaningful message, as long a message as you care to write. My suggestion is make your cards personal or why bother at all. It’s up to you.
One suggestion, a similar idea to Al Hirchfeld where he has his daughter’s name, Nina, hidden within his drawings for people to discover. And, definitely more puzzles!

I loved your old format much better. I can’t really see the reason for the change in format. I feel the old version was much more user friendly. Although, I must admit, I use your site for all my card giving. Since people usually through paper cards out, this a better way for me to spend my money. I’d rather pay your site than buy paper cards. Besides, I can write a more personal note in my cards that I send from your site. Thank you for this service.

I have used this service for years now. The advent calendar is SO MUCH FUN and I always order one during the holidays. It’s so easy to remember and send a beautiful card for all occasions to anyone in your address book. I really like the new app as well. The cards are so wholesome and refreshing. It can be difficult to find a normal card in the store these days without it having rated R content. Plus one can save a lot of money sending E cards. So glad I subscribed to this service!

I was introduced to Jacque Lawson greeting cards a few years ago when I received one of the first Christmas cards featuring Chudleigh and the cats. The variety of cards has increased since then, and are all very well done with beautiful music and artwork. I have been a subscriber since the early days, and it’s a great way to send special occasion greetings, thank you notes, or if you just want to let a friend know you are thinking of them. I have purchased one of the advent calendars, and was recently gifted with the gardening game. I love the daily activities, growing annuals in the greenhouse, and being able to change garden designs. The interactive games are fun, it’s in real time, and there are surprises every day. I have never had problems with delivery of cards or payment issues. The price has gone up over the years but it is a good value considering the cost of a traditional card and postage.

About 4 years ago a friend sent me an e-card from Jackie Lawson for my birthday. I sat watching my card play, thoroughly enjoying the splendor of the animation and personalization. I was hooked. I subscribed to Jackie Lawson right away and have happily renewed each year. Firstly, the new creations that come out regularly keep everything fresh. Secondly, the options on how to send your card are brilliant. And lastly, it is a wonderfully convenience to be able to send cards out in advance.. I always tend to forget.

by Tom-in-USA

Only complaint is that the system does NOT YET allow you to send TEXT messages for any date other than the present day! Thus, if you want to set up delivery of e-cards in advance, it HAS to be done by the system using EMAIL (and NOT a phone text message). Having said that, system is very nice !!! One other complaint....the card images do NOT YET reflect ”diversity aware” thinking. The ideas are very old fashioned and not in keeping with the times and ideas important to countries of diverse peoples. I hope they read this and create new cards. Thx!

I’ve loved Jacquie Lawson for years. JacquieLawsonEcards is fantastic, it works well.

The cards are so beautiful. My friends always rave about the cards I send. Beautiful animated drawings, lovely music. She has cards for so many occasions. Including birthday, wedding, condolences, Bon voyage, new baby, new home, get well, New Year, Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Canada Day, US holidays, lunar new year, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Easter, Christmas, all seasons, and many themes. I’m still waiting for Jewish holidays and Indian holidays. (The cards are slowly getting more inclusive/diverse. So that something to look forward to.)

I have been sending Jacquie Lawson cards for a couple of years and have received lots of messages from the recipients about how beautiful and unusual they are. I installed JacquieLawsonEcards recently and was happy to learn that it added the option of sending the card by text. Some people so rarely use email that they have missed getting their cards at the appropriate moment. Another plus is that JacquieLawsonEcards can access your regular address book and not just the one you used to have to input stuff in on their site. I found JacquieLawsonEcards a pleasant improvement over just using the website.

I found and fell in love with Jacquie Lawson e-cards years ago when a friend sent me one and I've been a subscriber ever since!
The Brits do exceptional illustrations, and that fact is evident in every card they create; accompanying music scores are spot-on, and the selections, from quietly dignified Sympathy cards, to the Jacquie Lawson animal friends and their adorable antics, never fail to delight.
Since the website selections somehow keep getting better every year, I will continue to subscribe in 2-year increments so that I am always ready to send a card when an occasion pops-up, or just to say, "Hi!" to a friend.
Thanks for such a stunning selection of cards and for doing what you do so beautifully!

i love that JacquieLawsonEcards has been created --- i've sent friends and family jacquie lawson cards for several years now and JacquieLawsonEcards makes the process of selecting and sending cards just super fun and seamless. the cards themselves are absolutely delightful and there are so many options and ways to customize the message for cards that it's possible to find EXACTLY the right thing to send someone for all the moments our loved ones experience. it just feels like so much care and love is put into creating these cards by the folks at jacquie lawson cards: it's a gift to me to be able to look through all the possibilities, feel the care, and then to send caring, artful creations to those who are most important in my life...

I just took out a two-year subscription to this site and it has turned out to be one of the best investments I’ve ever made. Not only are the cards clever and cute, but th money I save on cards and postage is unbelievable!

Because of their quick same-day delivery I can often send birthday cards to friends and they always arrive on time or early! And one of the best features of this application is you can send a card for any occasion up to one year in advance! All you need to do is select the date you want it delivered!

This is absolutely the most wonderful site I have ever subscribed to. I have told my friends and family about it and I wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone out there who might be reading this review!! You will love it!!

I am a big fan not only of JacquieLawsonEcards but the whole Jacquie Lawson site. Her cards are quite beautiful, i get asked by so many people about where i got such a nice gift to send and several times not only have I renewed my subscription over the yrs. but I have given friends and family subscriptions as gifts and Advent Calendars as gifts. THEY ARE TRULY AMAZING!!! Even if you pick a more up to date card it still has this aesthetic quality about it that to me anyway I find my whole body calming down and really spending time on this site. I do not play video games but on here I will partake of the different activities with the cards. I also love the not cards to send . I write what i need to say to a friend or family member with more room than a card and especially when its not an occasion.

Dear Jacque,
I’ve been with you almost from the start and have given so much joy to friends and family by sending your cards whenever an occasion popped up. The only thing I missed, as the years went by are a few cards featuring Black and Brown people , not a lot , just wherever you have used people. Perhaps you could offer the option? You have taken care of the other feature I missed by integrating mobile phones into your presentation. Myself , friends, and family use our phones way more often than our laptops so thank you for going through the trouble of giving us the mobile phone option for sending our e-cards. I love your cards and love JacquieLawsonEcards. Thank you for making sending and receiving cards a pleasure in the age of “digital”.

The cards won’t play properly on my iPad. May go back to the website. Thanks

by Helena146

Everyone that receive the cards always let me know how beautiful and fun they are.
I love the colors and the touching feature to discovery what is next :-).

by JillieSue

Finally! Thank you and thank you again. I love all the beautiful cards. I have been a subscriber for years.

by Abueupi

Sooo grateful to have an app that enables me to send these beautiful cards to those that no longer use email! Thank you!
