Awesome

Love the ability to see all the grandkids.

The solution to extended family group chats

Everyone has those big family or friends group chats where you only care about half of the things on it. Told solved that problem as you can set up journals for different topics and you can post and comment on each others stuff with just the people you care about. It also has a great UI so you can visually see everything that you’ve posted. It’s the only social media I want to post on.

The perfect journal for my kids

I use this for my daughter and son, I have a journal for each of them and I’ve invited all their aunts, uncles, grandparents, and close friends. I love getting to share all their little moments, but also I love that I get this beautiful journal in chronological order of my kids lives. I want them to get to see these little moments when they are older, and I’m glad that through this I’ll be able to save everything. I’m a big fan of the text entries as well because I like writing quick notes of the funny things they say or do.

I also love how I can have collaborators who can add to their journals. I love seeing posts from grandma of the fun things she did with my kiddos.

And, on top of it all, my siblings use it for their kids, so I get to see all the adorable photos of my nieces and nephews.

Love this app.

Exactly what I needed
