Frequently Asked Questions
How do I turn phone photos into wall art?
Upload your photo to Smallwoods' custom designer, choose your product (frame, canvas, or cutout), pick your size, and we'll handcraft and ship it in 1–3 business days.
What resolution do I need for phone photos?
Most modern smartphones (iPhone 12+, Galaxy S20+) capture photos at sufficient resolution for prints up to 24×36 inches. Our designer will flag if your image is too low resolution.
Can I use screenshots or Instagram photos?
Yes! We accept any JPEG or PNG. Lower-resolution screenshots work best for smaller sizes (8×10 or 11×14).
What's the best size for a phone photo wall print?
8×10, 11×14, and 16×20 are the most popular sizes for phone photos. Larger sizes (20×24 and up) work best with higher-resolution originals.
How long does it take to receive my print?
Production takes 1–3 business days, and most orders ship via UPS Ground (3–7 days). Expedited shipping is available at checkout.
