A problem with exporting our day to day lives to the internet is moments that matter to us tend to be trapped on our smartphone and computer screens. A new start-up hopes to free the content on your phone and transform your favourite pieces into personalised objects you can keep around the house.  
[Madesquare](http://www.madesquare.com/?ref=protein.xyz) has just launched its [first iOS app](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/madesquare/id868862305?mt=8&ref=protein.xyz), riding on the popularity of the iPhone photo, the company invites users to turn their pictures into keepsakes like postcards, magnets, calendars, canvas prints or even wooden blocks.  
Inspired by [Pinterest](https://gb.pinterest.com/?ref=protein.xyz) and [Etsy](https://www.etsy.com/uk/?ref=protein.xyz), Madesquare is a rather simple way to create appealing new items from digital content. Users pick up to 20 available products, starting at $2, and then choose photos from their camera roll – Madesquare puts together a preview which can then be adjusted before the transaction is finalised.   
Madesquare bears similarities in concept to [Qleek](https://www.prote.in/en/feed/2014/03/qleek?ref=protein.xyz), which turns online content into decorative and interactive real-world objects and [Telescope Cards](https://www.prote.in/en/feed/2014/04/telescope-cards?ref=protein.xyz), meanwhile, collates tips from Foursquare and realises them in the form of a customisable deck of cards.
