your lastHello, your loved, your decision... lastHello is an online service that allows customers to determine during their lifetime who will manage their digital data after their death. Digitisation has led to a sharp increase in the number of online accounts and contracts created by each user. Managing your digital bequest not only enables you to regulate who will receive your login details, but also allows you to leave behind final messages, business secrets, or simply the recipe for your grandma's apple cake for your loved ones. Anything is possible. What matters is that you decide! You determine who can react and deal with your bequest as well as when, where, and how. lastHello can guarantee that all data will be treated sensitively and stored using advanced encryption technology. lastHello is only activated when we no longer hear from you. Features: # Define what you want to leave behind (bequests). # Templates for Facebook, Twitter, Google. # Leave additionally files, voice messages, images or videos behind. # Decide when your bequests should be sent after your decease: - Directly - Delayed by a period of time - On a defined date in the future # Create contacts (whom you want to leave something behind). # Let your contacts know that you will be leaving them something behind (Confirmation by the contact - optional). # Assign your bequests to contacts whom you want to leave something behind - multiple selections possible. # lastHello uses emails to ask you in regular intervals if you are OK: - You can adjust how often and how much time you need to respond. - You can define up to 2 emergency contacts who will be contacted at expiration. - You can define an additional delay (missing case). - The lastHello app sends you push notifications to inquiry your Status (thus, ideally the email requests will not be triggered ). # lastHello double encrypts your data and keeps it on a separate server. # Only you know what data hides behind your alias/descriptor. # The registration is free. # lastHello is a service and costs € 4.99 the year. The first month is free. # You can cancel your subscription anytime. # You have always access, even if lastHello is not active (unpaid). # You can delete your data/contacts anytime. # In case of decease no further payment is required: the defined actions will be also executed in the future.

There are things you mean to say and never do. Will makes sure they get said anyway. Write a message to the people who matter. Choose who receives it. Then get on with your life. Once a month, Will asks you to confirm you're still here — one tap. If you ever stop answering, your messages are delivered to the people you chose. That's the whole idea. No feed, no social network, no subscription required. HOW IT WORKS 1. WRITE A letter to your daughter for the day she turns eighteen. Where the will is kept and what the passwords are. The apology you never managed out loud. Write as many as you like. 2. CHECK IN Once a month we ask whether you're still alive. Answer in the app, from a push notification, or by tapping a link in an email. It takes a second. 3. DELIVERED Miss six check-ins in a row and Will sends each message to its recipients. Not a day before. WHAT'S INSIDE • Unlimited messages, free forever • Separate recipients for every message — nobody sees what was meant for someone else • A countdown showing exactly where you stand • Optional notice telling your recipients something is waiting, without revealing what it says • Push and email reminders, so you never miss a check-in by accident • Eight languages • Delete your account and everything is erased, permanently WILL+ — THE LIFE GRID Your whole life as a single grid: ninety years, one dot per week. Fill the weeks that mattered with photos, video and voice recordings — 50 GB of them — and they are handed to your people after you're gone, together with your messages. Choose who sees what: everyone, or only the people and groups you pick. Everything is kept for your heirs for ten years after release, and they don't need an account to open it. Text memories are free. Will+ adds the photos, video and voice. PRIVACY Your messages are readable by you and nobody else until the day they are released. We don't sell data and we don't show ads. Delete your account at any time and all of it disappears with it. Will is free. Will+ is optional.
