Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Family Journal different for families?
Family Journal is designed for real families, not publishing projects. Instead of filling out forms or completing interviews, you simply speak, write, or share moments as they happen. Our AI helps organize memories quietly in the background — so your family can focus on connection, not production.
How is Family Journal different from memory books or interview services?
Traditional memory products often end in a book or require long, scheduled interviews. Family Journal is a living space — always growing, always accessible — where voices, photos, and reflections come together over time. There’s no pressure, no scripts, and nothing standing between your family and their stories.
It’s less like publishing a memoir, and more like building a family home for memories.
Who can see our family’s stories?
Only the people you invite. Family Journal is private by design — no ads, no public sharing, and no data sold to third parties. Your family controls who has access, and your memories stay within your circle.
Do I need to be tech-savvy to use Family Journal?
Not at all. Most entries take just a couple of minutes. You can speak naturally, upload a photo, or jot down a thought — from any device. Family Journal was built so grandparents, parents, and kids can all contribute comfortably.
Will our memories be easy to find years from now?
Yes. Memories are organized automatically by people, time, and themes, so your family can return to them anytime. As your collection grows, it becomes easier — not harder — to explore your shared history.
Real Stories, Real Voices
Whether it's grandma's voice singing a lullaby, your child's first words, or a quiet reflection after a big life moment — everything lives safely in one place, beautifully organized, and ready to revisit forever.
These aren't just recordings. They're time capsules of emotion, preserved perfectly so that future generations can hear the love in your voice, see the joy in your expressions, and feel the connection to family members they may never meet in person.
Imagine your great-grandchildren being able to hear their ancestor's laugh, understand their values, and feel connected to their roots. That's the power of Family Journal — bridging generations through authentic storytelling.
