Internet safety is very important to me as a mom with 3 daughters whom all have phones. We share lots of pictures on a regular basis but they can’t get into our iCloud. Lalo gives me the option to still save & keep photos a few clicks away. Honorable mention: I stumbled across the story of how it was created and was very moved by the story. After the death of his father, the app developer sought out on a journey to help other families have a private way to share memories. Lalo was his father’s name. ### 5/5 — I actually quite enjoy this app *2023-02-16, version 1.3.5* I don’t really use apps where you share moments with friends and family, but I’ve found that I liked this. I like that you can share photos, videos, text, or even audio, and make it so certain people can see it. I like that there are questions, such as questions about someone you’d like to remember, about your friends, etc, which could help you figure out what you want to post in your capsule. There are also a few mini-apps in there that are nice, I found that the colorizer (which turns b&w photos to color) is really cool and actually works! ### 4/5 — Great concept! *2023-02-15, version 1.3.5* I love the idea of a digital scrapbook! It’s super cute because all photos are digital anyway, and this just makes it easier to (privately) share with family and friends. However, I don’t think I’ll be using this app as I usually just create Shared Albums on iPhone Photos with my friends and family. I think this would be good for friends and families who have a mixture of Androids and iPhones. ### 5/5 — Keeps family members connected in one place *2023-01-29, version 1.3.4* I love that this app allows my loved ones and friends to post photos and memories in one place instead of having to text everyone photos separately (which is a huge haste after vacations). Now we can all upload our photos here, and everyone in my capsule automatically has access to them. I also love how I can edit photos right in the app so I don’t have to use a separate app for editing! It really is an all in one stop shop and can save you so much time. The video tutorials really helped me understand all of the unique features the app has and how to use them. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — A great app to stay connected with family *2023-01-27, version 1.3.4* Lalo family app has impressed me. Usually I would expect some difficulties navigating through the app but it wasn’t that case. From the moment I downloaded the app to creating an account to using the features I was impressed. Everything was explained well. If people really wants to stay connected to their family and friends then this is the app. Many of us have memories we would like to share with others and this app allows that. I am sure my family will be happy to stay connected this way. In short it’s an awesome app and I am definitely going to continue using it 😁 ### 5/5 — Smooth and easy to use! *2023-01-27, version 1.3.4* This app is great! So simple to use and a great tool for saving memories and connecting with family. It’s hard to manage and keep track of big milestones and moments but this app makes it so easy and enjoyable. I also feel secure knowing that Lalo is aware of privacy concerns and does not share or track personal information. Couldn’t recommend this app enough! ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2023-01-27, version 1.3.4* This app is absolutely seamless. There are many options for how, when and where pictures are shared to the app. Privacy is also key in why this app is so awesome. I don’t feel uncomfortable sharing access to my photos to this app. I can find everything I need with ease. There’s no question, this will be an app to share with family and friends! ### 5/5 — Friendly Family Oriented App *2023-01-01, version 1.3.1* This was my first time trying out Lalo and so far I’ve had a good experience. It’s fairly simple to navigate and provides the user with apretty good user experience overall. Lalo is mainly used to create and store memories that you wish to preserve and share with your loved ones. Overall it’s a straightforward app and very easy to use and I would definitely recommend it to my family and friends for future use. ### 4/5 — Great Family App *2022-11-14, version 1.3.0* This is a great app to safely share memories between family members from your phone! It allows for family stay connected whether near or far. It offers tutorials and clear instructions as you learn to use it. You can share videos, pictures and journal entries, as well as audio recordings with the group. It’s an easy and safe way to stay in touch! ### 5/5 — Simple way to store and share memories! *2022-11-13, version 1.2.9* I really like this idea for storing and sharing memories. The app is easy to use and there are lots of tutorials to teach you as well. I highly recommend you watch the video called “See a sample.” It gives you some great ideas. I also really like the cute llama and the badges. ## Frequently asked questions about Lalo ### What does Lalo do? Lalo is a secure app designed for families to connect and share memories.
