Find your way back to the moments that matter. LyfeReplay brings your permitted photos, Apple Calendar events, saved places, and notes together in a private memory experience for iPhone and iPad, with a companion Apple Watch app and widgets. YOUR PHOTOS, IN MOTION A colorful, animated photo wheel brings your permitted library into focus. Photos advance automatically, with controls to pause, open a larger replay, and choose which photos appear on Home. Motion respects Reduce Motion and device conditions. SEARCH YOUR MEMORIES Ask for a date, place, or subject in natural language. Explore your timeline, revisit earlier years, and follow the original sources. On-device photo recognition can suggest relevant scenes and objects; visual matches and date clues may be imperfect and are not proof of an event. OPTIONAL CLOUD INTELLIGENCE With Premium, you can choose to ask cloud AI a deeper question. Cloud AI is off by default. Review and remove the exact text excerpts before each request is sent through Supabase to OpenAI. Original photo files and GPS coordinate fields are not included. Answers point back to the excerpts you selected. AI can make mistakes, so check the sources. A REPLAY ON YOUR WRIST The redesigned Apple Watch app shows your latest memory snapshot and, when you enable Watch photo sharing on iPhone, a rotating replay of small photo copies. Open LyfeReplay on iPhone for the first transfer. The Watch must reconnect to receive changes or clear shared copies. PLACES AND DINING Explore saved places and discover nearby restaurants, with Yelp results when available and Apple Maps support. Dining suggestions are not recorded as visits. YOUR SOURCES. YOUR CHOICE. Choose permissions, pause imports, use local-only mode, enable biometric locking, export supported saved data, or delete LyfeReplay's local memories. Deleting app memories does not delete originals in Photos or Calendar. Local-only mode turns off cloud AI and app sync; purchases, maps, Dining, and external links can still connect. PREMIUM LyfeReplay Premium is an auto-renewing monthly subscription, currently $1.99/month in the U.S. Eligible new subscribers receive a three-day free trial. Prices and eligibility are shown by the App Store for your region. Premium includes up to 20 cloud questions per calendar month, subject to service capacity. Local search does not send your memories to cloud AI. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, or when an eligible free trial ends. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel in App Store subscription settings. Screenshots use sample content. Your app shows only the sources you permit. Privacy Policy: https://rentry.co/lyfereplay-privacy-policy-kxoglu Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
