The Legacy Chronicles App takes information from the User’s Profile and generates User-Specific LC Prompts. These LC Prompts are designed to not only help Users organize and outline their life, but also regularly and accurately chronicle their Life Experiences, Stories, Family History, Advice, Traditions, and More for Future Generations to view and learn from. This is done by Users choosing to respond to a LC Prompt with a recorded or uploaded Video, Photo, Audio, and/or Written LC Entry. Once the LC Entry is created, Users then have the option to share (if they desire) the LC Entry with Family, Friends, Custodians, or Specific Individuals in real time or at a scheduled later date, at which point recipients (e.g. Family, Friends) can Comment on the User’s LC Entry. As a culmination of the User’s LC Entries, the Legacy Chronicles automatically generates a dynamic Family Tree as well as a Legacy Chronicles Book (LC Book) that houses all of the User’s LC Entries. One final unique aspect of the Legacy Chronicles App is that a deceased/inactive User’s account (i.e. LC Book and Profile information) can be transferred to another individual (i.e. a Custodian). A.
