MEMAURIA turns the questions that matter into videos you'll treasure: the people you love, telling their own stories, in their own voice. No blank page and nothing to plan. MEMAURIA asks the question. You turn the phone sideways and answer, and it guides the rest, so anyone (a grandparent, a parent, you) can capture a memory in a minute. Every prompt is drawn from more than 200 thoughtful questions. HOW IT WORKS • MEMAURIA asks a question; you record your answer on video. • Invite family to follow along and watch as new memories arrive. • Every memory is guided, beautifully graded, and kept safe. FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY Invite the people you love to record their own memories, or to watch yours. Each person's collection always has someone to keep it safe, so nothing is lost. FREE FOREVER WHEN YOU SHARE Share a memory to unlock it and it stays free, for good. You never have to pay. Prefer not to share? You can subscribe to one person, or unlock a single memory instead: • Individual: watch everything from one person. • Family: watch one person and share it with up to 8 people in all. • Unlock a single memory to keep on its own. A LASTING KEEPSAKE When the time comes, MEMAURIA can weave every memory of someone into one documentary film, a keepsake to download and hold onto. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your memories are yours. You decide who follows you and who can watch. Anything that shouldn't be there can be reported, and our team reviews it. Questions? Reach us any time from Settings, Contact support.

Verdict

The call

iMemories and MEMAURIA both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of MEMAURIA's written reviews are positive against 40% of iMemories's. MEMAURIA also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.6). iMemories's advantage is ratings volume (9.1K vs 1) and chart position (#76 vs unranked). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
