## What is Family Diary?

Some stories are only told once. Family Diary makes sure they are never lost.

Every day, Family Diary asks your mom, dad, or grandparent one gentle question about their life. What was your childhood home like? How did you two meet? They just talk. The app listens, writes their answer into a beautiful passage, and adds it to their life story, chapter by chapter.

HOW IT WORKS

One warm question a day. Answering takes a minute or an hour, their choice.
They speak, type, or photograph a handwritten page. Their words become readable, lasting prose, and their exact original words are always kept too.
Their story grows into chapters: childhood, family, love, work, lessons.
The whole family can read along, ask their own questions, and leave hearts.

MADE FOR OLDER STORYTELLERS

Big text, big buttons, nothing to figure out. If they can answer the phone, they can keep a Family Diary. Stories can also be read aloud, including in the storyteller's own voice.

PHOTOS WITH EVERY STORY

Attach photos to any passage, take one in the moment or choose from the library. Photos taken in the app also save to your own camera roll, so you always keep your copy.

IMPORTANT DATES

Birthdays, anniversaries, and days worth remembering, kept in one searchable place alongside the family tree.

A REAL BOOK, IN THEIR OWN VOICE

Turn a diary into a printed hardcover: their chapters and photos, typeset like a memoir, with a code inside that plays every chapter in the storyteller's own voice. Ordered from the app, delivered to your door.

FAMILY JOINS FREE

Reading is always free, for the whole family, forever. Creating a diary is Premium: $6.99 per month or $49.99 per year after a 7-day free trial, and you can also gift a year to someone you love. If a subscription ever lapses, nothing is lost: every story remains readable.

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT

A diary is private until its owner chooses to share it. Individual passages can stay private even in a shared diary. You decide, story by story.

Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period, and can be managed in your App Store account settings.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.23 (1) — 2026-08-15

Two fixes from families using the app this week.

Photos now open cleanly, with the buttons where your thumb expects them instead of crowded against the bottom of the screen.

And when you open a family member's diary, the "Ask a question" button now fits properly, however long their name is.

### 1.0.22 (1) — 2026-08-06

When you finish recording a story, the save buttons now come to you. No more scrolling to find "I'm finished" after telling a long memory. A small change that makes finishing a story easier for everyone, especially the storytellers this app was built for.

### 1.0.21 (2) — 2026-08-05

Ask by text message. Send a question to a family member who does not use the app. They tap the link, answer out loud, and their story appears in your diary.

Tap a question notification and it opens ready to answer.

Plus small fixes.

### 1.0.20 (2) — 2026-08-04

Your stories now show the day they were written, right at the top of every passage.

New: Important Dates. Keep birthdays, anniversaries, and days worth remembering in one place, with search and filters.

Add photos to any story, up to six per passage. Photos you take in the app also save to your phone.

Order a printed hardcover book of your diary from Settings.

Plus smoother typing and other small fixes.
