How does Indlovu help you to record and share your precious memories? Step 1. Invite your loved ones to join your family profile, so that they can see and comment on your memories. This will be your private space for private family conversation. Step 2. Upload a picture/video/audio/text to reawaken the memory. For example, you can take a picture of an old black and white photograph. Or sing a song you loved in your childhood. Or type your favorite university joke. Step 3. Use our prompts to help you remember more. What connects people on this photograph? What was the mood like when you sang that song? What was happening in history when this joke was popular? Our prompts will help you remember and record important details. Step 4. Share the memory with your family. They can see and comment on it. Your memory will inspire their memories and create a special connection between you. “Nothing is ever really lost to us as long as we remember it.” (L.M. Montgomery). Preserve your memories and be remembered forever. ***** Indlovu is on a mission to help everyone preserve their precious memories and share this gift with their loved ones.
