Memory Jar - Family
Memories from pregnancy to 18
About
This app helps parents and family members preserve precious childhood memories from pregnancy through age 18. It functions as a digital scrapbook, allowing users to capture photos, voice memos, and written notes, organizing them into a "living book" that grows over time. Features include a flipbook for growth tracking, sealed letters for future delivery, and year-in-review yearbooks.
What's New in Memory Jar
1.2
May 21, 2026
Our biggest update since launch — two new ways to keep your child's story, and Memory Jar now on iPad. THE LIVING BOOK Everything you capture now composes itself into your child's book — real chapters, by month, season, and year, written entirely in your own words and photos. Begin with Chapter One, then answer one short prompt a day, and the pages keep turning. Nothing in it is AI-written. THE FLIPBOOK Take a growth photo now and then — we'll remind you when it's time — and Memory Jar lines up your child's eyes from one photo to the next, then plays them back as a smooth time-lapse. Watch them grow up, right before your eyes, and share the clip whenever you like. NOW ON IPAD Memory Jar is fully at home on the bigger screen, with native iPad layouts throughout. Plus stability fixes and polish under the hood. As always — every word and every photo is your family's own.
