KidSteps is your digital memory book for the milestones of your child's life. From the first judo throw to the best birthday party — you capture it in seconds and build a chronological album without any effort. How it works KidSteps asks smart questions based on what your child did. A judo match? "Won or lost? How did it feel?" A party? "Who came? What was the best part?" You add a photo, pick a mood stamp, done — the moment is saved to your timeline. Features • Smart question wizard per event type — sports, parties, school, first times, vacations • Warm polaroid design that invites you to browse • Automatic calendar detection: KidSteps recognizes sport and party events in your calendar and reminds you to capture them • Height and weight chart per child • Family viewer: share moments with grandparents, godparents — they follow along without an account • Yearbook generation (Premium): PDF or printed photo book with all moments from the past year • Multiple children (Premium) • Unlimited moments (Premium) Why KidSteps Memories fade. Photos drown in your camera roll. WhatsApp groups disappear. KidSteps holds your child's story — with context, feelings, and the little things you would otherwise forget.
