This is the most important thing you can do here: speak a memory out loud and keep it forever. Here is exactly how, one step at a time.

You’ll see it near the bottom of the screen on every page. Give it a tap.

A small window opens. Tap Voice (it’s already selected for you). This records just your voice — no camera.

Tap the big round red microphone. When you see the moving lines, it is listening.

Tip: It’s okay to pause or say “um.” Speak like you’re talking to a grandchild. There is no wrong way.

Just talk. Share a memory, a piece of advice, or how your day went. Take all the time you need.

Tap the same button to stop. You can listen back to make sure you like it.

Give it a short title if you like (for example, “The house I grew up in”), then tap Save. Done — it’s kept safely on your timeline.

Tip: You can’t break anything. If you don’t like a recording, just delete it and try again.

You can’t break anything. Take your time, and try things as many times as you like. If a recording isn’t right, just delete it and start again.

You’re ready. The best next step is simply to try it yourself.
