## What is Storied?

Family History 3.0
Storied is the next chapter in family history. It puts stories center stage helping you go beyond the names, dates, and places empowering you to capture the friends, family, and ancestors that have helped you become who you are today. Storied builds on a foundation of historical records, family trees, and hints to help you discover your roots and build your personal history. 

The Storied App
Storied encourages you to go beyond the names, dates, and places and helps you capture and relive the stories, memories, and moments that matter about yourself, your friends, your family, and your ancestors. You are more than a product of your ancestors. Now you can record those relationships and the stories that go with them, as you capture your personal history. It is the perfect companion for your online account, enabling you to bring your stories with you on the go.

Stories on the Go
Take your stories on the go, easily sharing them with family and friends. Capture moments that matter as they happen, whether that‘s as you reminisce around the dinner table when Aunt Myrtle spills the beans of a long-held family secret at the next family reunion, or as you hike the Himalayas with your three best friends.

Branch Out Beyond the Tree
Storied is built on cutting-edge technology allowing users to branch out beyond the family tree and pull in new relationships typically not captured in genealogy products. Relationships like friends, teachers, mentors, business colleagues, military comrades, religious leaders, and more can now be saved, enabling you to capture stories and memories that help bring your personal history to life.

### 1/5 — Absolute mess

*2026-03-03*

I am writing to formally address a significant discrepancy concerning a recent subscription charge that appeared on my statement following my enrollment in your complimentary trial service.

Approximately one week ago, I activated your advertised 7-day free trial with the explicit intention of thoroughly evaluating your platform's capabilities and user experience. However, from the outset of this trial period, I regrettably encountered severe and persistent technical impediments. The platform consistently proved inaccessible, marked by recurring website downtime and an inability to successfully log in, thereby preventing any interaction with the service's features.

Three days into the trial, I proactively contacted your support team via email to report these critical access issues. To date, I have not received any acknowledgement or response to that communication, leaving my concerns unaddressed.

Despite these ongoing operational failures and my complete inability to utilize or even access the service throughout the trial duration, my account was subsequently debited for a full subscription fee. This situation is particularly concerning, as the fundamental purpose of a free trial — to afford prospective users the opportunity to assess the product before committing to a subscription — was entirely undermined by your platform's unavailability. It directly contradicted the promotional emphasis on a "much improved" website experience, which unfortunately was not reflected in my actual encounter.

Given that I was demonstrably unable to access or derive any benefit from the service for which I have been charged, I respectfully request a complete reimbursement of the amount debited from my account. I kindly ask for this refund to be processed without delay.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your feedback. I'm sorry for the issues you're experiencing with utilizing your free trial. We are dedicated to solving any issue you might have, and would be eager to look into this further. Please reach out to our customer service team so we can understand this issue in further depth and solve the problem for you.

### 5/5 — So easy!

*2025-08-31*

I wouldn’t consider myself a great geologist by any means. But I do care a lot about Record-keeping and sharing memories. Storied makes it so easy and convenient to do it all on the go. Whether it is about my family activities that day or my great great grandmother or a favorite recipe. It all matters in the end.
I love that I can have my family search memories imported. It makes it very easy to take pictures that other people have published, find a census record or other Historical document, or even a newspaper clipping from Storied and quickly create a meaningful story about the person and who they were. It’s not just about charts and dates. The stories matter so much and I love that Storied gets that.
Every time I share a story that I have written, it almost always spark deeper discussions about our family. I almost always get additional information, photos, or resources. Especially from my parents, which matters a great deal as they are getting older.
I truly love what Storied is doing and how it enriches my love and appreciation for the people who came before me.

**Developer response:** That’s awesome to hear! It sounds like you’re making the most of those little moments to create something truly special. The ability to quickly capture memories—complete with pictures and audio—makes storytelling so much more personal and engaging. It’s great that you find it easier and more meaningful than other platforms. Thanks for sharing your experience!

### 5/5 — Family history at my fingertips

*2025-01-17*

My favorite part of this app is that I can write stories and add pictures from my phone in just minutes. I have 10 minutes to kill while I’m waiting for someone in the car? I can write a story about my grandma and include pictures and audio. Then make it into a book! It’s so much more meaningful and interactive than Shutterfly and less of a burden or chore than Remento. I love it!

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2024-10-03*

### 1/5 — Can't Access App

*2024-08-29*

Downloaded the app to my phone. Tried to log in using the credentials from the desktops, but it will not do anything. Tried to create an account, but it will not do anything. Deleted the app, reinstalled the app. Tried to log in with previous credentials, nothing. Tried to create an account for the second time, and nothing. Turned the phone off and back on to reset everything, went through all of the above yet again....nothing. It doesn't help a whit if you can't get into the stupid thing! After an hour of trying, I quit.

### 5/5 — It’s the stories, stupid!

*2023-01-25*

I love this app - it makes family history more like scrolling Instagram and puts the part of family history that I actually like front and center. You know, the stories. The memories. Who’s got time for all the pedigree charts and christening dates etc etc? Now just gotta get my mom on here so she can digitize all those scrapbooks in the basement…

**Developer response:** We appreciate your feedback, and enjoyment of the app! We agree that the memories are the most important part of storytelling. For any additional questions for feedback, please contact us. Mon-Fri: 8am-5pm MT customerservice@storied.com 800-848-0224
