Every family has stories worth keeping. KeepOfEchoes helps you tell them in your own voice, and keeps them for the people who come after you. Not a video, not a form to fill in: just you, telling a story the way you always tell it. KeepOfEchoes keeps the recording, writes out your words and builds a timeline of your life that your children and grandchildren can listen to for years to come. TALK WITH EMBER Ember is a warm, patient interviewer who helps you get started and keeps the story going. Ember asks a question, listens, picks up a detail from what you said and asks one gentle follow-up. Perfect for parents and grandparents who want to tell their story but don't know where to begin. A THOUSAND QUESTIONS About childhood, love, work, hard times, faith, joy and what you want to pass on. Every day brings a new question, and every question comes with follow-ups that help you remember more. TELL ABOUT A PHOTO Pick an old photo and Ember asks about it: who is in it, what happened that day. The photo is kept with your story. THREE SIMPLE WAYS TO TELL A STORY • Talk with Ember – a guided conversation. • Just Record – tap and tell. • Record Together – a conversation with someone you love. Recording keeps going when the screen turns off, so you can put the phone down on the table and simply talk. FIND AND SHARE Every story is written out on your device so you can search by name, place or subject. Browse by date, person or theme. Share a story with family through iCloud: they open the invite and listen. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your stories stay on your device and in your own iCloud, never on our servers. Ember runs on your device with Apple Intelligence. Deeper AI with Apple's Private Cloud Compute is optional and off unless you switch it on. DESIGNED FOR EVERY AGE Large text, clear buttons, VoiceOver and Dynamic Type. In English and Dutch. Requirements: iOS 26 or later. Ember's conversations need a device with Apple Intelligence (iPhone 15 Pro or newer, or an iPad with Apple silicon). Recording, writing out your words, the thousand questions and sharing work on every supported device.
