## What is CloseUp?

Who is this? Where was this? When was this? Your photos. Your memories. Rediscovered.
CloseUp turns your photo library into a guessing game. Record your reactions. Relive your past. Play free.

— HOW IT WORKS —

CloseUp scans your photo library right on your device. 100% private. No cloud. No uploads. It finds faces, recognizes places, and reads dates — then turns everything into rounds you actually want to play.

A zoomed-in photo appears. You guess who it is, where it was taken, or when it happened. Sounds simple... until you see a baby photo of your kid you haven't seen before.

Or a close-up of an eye... is it yours or your mom's? Or that beach vacation from 10 years ago. Where was it again? You'll be surprised how much you've forgotten. And how much comes flooding back.

— FIVE WAYS TO PLAY —

• WHO IS THIS? — A face appears. Can you tell your cousins apart from 2007?
• WHERE WAS THIS? — Was that beach trip Cancun or Puerto Vallarta?
• WHEN WAS THIS? — Was that haircut 2015 or 2019?
• SURPRISE ME — All modes, shuffled. The full memory workout.
• ON THIS DAY — Today's date, across every year. Your daily memory ritual.

— THE FEELING —

"It found my grandmother. I didn't even know her photo was on my phone."

"Look how young we were! I can't believe that was 10 years ago."

"Best family night in ages. Someone pulled out the phone and suddenly it's been an hour."

"A photo of my dad popped up. He passed two years ago. I wasn't ready for that. I'm glad it found me."

"We started playing to kill 10 minutes. An hour later we were all on the couch, laughing and crying at the same time."

That's what happens when you turn YOUR real photos into a game. It stops being an app and starts being a story you've never heard.

— RECORD MEMORIES —

Every family has a storyteller. The one who remembers why everyone was laughing in that photo. The one who knows where that restaurant was.

What happens when that person is gone?

Record audio or video stories right on your photos. Sit with your parents or grandparents and let them narrate. Watch your kids react to their baby photos. Share recorded memories anywhere – Instagram, TikTok, WhatsApp – or save to your camera roll.

Some stories only exist in one person's memory. Record them before they're gone.

— SHARE BEAUTIFUL MEMORY COLLAGES —

CloseUp creates stunning bento-style collages of your rediscovered photos. Dates, locations, and names included automatically. Share to Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, iMessage, WhatsApp — or save to your camera roll. Not a game screenshot, but a beautiful memory card that makes people ask "what app is that?"

— PLAY TOGETHER —

Show your kids how small they were. Connect across generations. After dinner, before the dishes — someone pulls out the phone and suddenly it's been an hour. Grandparents remember stories. Parents remember context. Kids learn where they came from.

— YOUR DAILY MEMORY —

Add the CloseUp widget to your home screen. Every day, a different photo from your past appears — a quiet reminder of a moment you forgot. Tap it and you're playing.
