Memories: Create Stories

Your photos and videos already contain meaningful stories. Memories finds them for you. Using dates and locations on your iPhone, Memories automatically groups related moments into trips and memorable days. It then creates a surprising First Cut with standout photos, video clips, titles, movement and music. NO SORTING. NO BLANK TIMELINE. Open Memories and discover stories already waiting in your camera roll. CREATE AUTOMATIC PHOTO STORIES • Discover trips and meaningful days automatically • Combine photos and relevant video clips • Turn standout moments into a vertical story • Add titles, pacing, movement and music • Preview your story before making changes MAKE EVERY STORY YOURS Reorder moments, remove clips, adjust the pace and change how photos appear. The simple visual editor lets you see the effect of every change. DIRECT A NEW CUT WITH AI Give AI Director a short clue about what the memory means. It can suggest a stronger hook, more meaningful titles and a different creative direction. AI Director is optional and only uses the moments you approve. READY TO SAVE AND SHARE Export a vertical video for Instagram, TikTok, Messages or Photos. Save the finished video to your iPhone so you can keep it permanently. A free preview is available. A one-time Story Pass unlocks the complete story in 1080p without a watermark. No subscription is required. OPTIONAL MEMORIES ACCOUNT Creating stories and saving videos does not require an account. Sign in with Apple or create an account with your email when you want to create a private share link. Your account keeps your active links together, allowing you to watch, share or download a linked story again from your iPhone. Linked videos are stored temporarily and automatically expire after seven days. Save the finished video to your iPhone if you want to keep it permanently. You can delete individual links and videos or delete your entire Memories account from within the app. DESIGNED AROUND PRIVACY Your photo library is analysed and grouped on your iPhone. Memories does not upload your entire camera roll. Only a finished video you deliberately choose to share is uploaded to create its temporary link. Your original photos and videos remain in Apple Photos unless you explicitly choose otherwise. Relive the moments that matter—without spending hours editing them.
