ZappyPrint
Photo printing app with an admin panel
ZappyPrint lets anyone turn phone photos into physical prints. Customers pull images from their gallery, Facebook, or Instagram, pick a print product, and pay, while staff manage the catalog and orders from an admin panel.

The challenge
A print-on-demand business needed a mobile app where customers could pick photos from wherever they actually keep them, not just a camera roll, choose a print product, and pay, plus a back office where staff could manage categories, pricing, and incoming orders without touching the app's code.
Who uses it
- Customers
- Register with OTP, pick photos from gallery, Facebook, or Instagram, choose print products, and pay.
- Admin staff
- Manage sub-categories, user accounts, and order and address data from a PHP admin panel.
What we built
We built a native Android app with onboarding, login/register with OTP, category browsing, and a print-upload flow with tabs for My Gallery, Facebook, and Instagram photo sources, plus a payment screen. A PHP/MySQL admin panel and REST API handle sub-categories, user accounts, and address/order data behind it.
Multi-source photo picker
Upload photos from the phone gallery, Facebook, or Instagram in one upload flow with source tabs.
OTP login and register
Customers sign up and log in with phone-based OTP verification.
Category browsing
Customers browse print products by category before choosing what to order.
Payment screen
In-app checkout flow for completing a print order.
Admin panel
PHP and MySQL back office for managing sub-categories, users, addresses, and orders.
REST API
Shared API layer connecting the Android app to the admin panel's data.
Onboarding flow
First-run screens introduce new customers to the app before registration.
How it works
- Customer completes onboarding and registers with phone OTP.
- They browse print product categories in the app.
- They pick photos from their gallery, Facebook, or Instagram.
- They choose a print product and quantity for the selected photos.
- They pay on the payment screen to place the order.
- Admin staff see and manage the order through the PHP admin panel.

Android app
Kotlin
Native Android app for browsing, uploading photos, and ordering prints.
PHP admin panel
PHP, MySQL
Back office for managing categories, users, addresses, and orders.
REST API
PHP
Shared API connecting the Android app to the admin panel's database.
How it’s built
The app's upload flow was built around three distinct photo sources, gallery, Facebook, and Instagram, each its own tab feeding a common upload and print-product selection path. OTP-based login and registration verify customers before they can order. A PHP and MySQL admin panel sits behind a REST API, giving staff control over sub-categories, user accounts, and address and order data without needing app updates for catalog changes.
