The sound of them, kept forever.
Grandparents carry a century of stories. My Journal Story helps you keep them — effortlessly, in their own words.
Their real voice
Recorded as audio, so grandchildren can hear grandma or grandpa tell the story themselves.
Video memories
On Heirloom, leave face-to-face messages the family can watch long into the future.
Private & safe
Stored securely and shared only with the people you choose. Nothing is public.
“We have hundreds of photos of my grandfather. The day we found a recording of his voice, the whole family cried.”
— the reason My Journal Story exists
That is the thing you can’t get back. My Journal Story exists so no family has to wish they had pressed record — while there was still time.

Preserving your grandparents’ stories — your questions
How can I preserve my grandparents’ memories?
My Journal Story lets your grandparents record their stories out loud — and on video — and keeps them safe on a private timeline forever. No typing, no books to reprint, just their voice preserved for the whole family.
Can I save my grandmother’s or grandfather’s actual voice?
Yes. Every story is recorded as audio in their real voice, so future generations can hear them tell it, not just read about it.
What if my grandparents aren’t good with technology?
It is built to be simple — big buttons, no typing, and you can set it up and record with them. Many families sit together and record over a cup of coffee.
Can they leave a video message for the grandchildren?
Yes. On the Heirloom plan your grandparents can record video memories and messages that grandchildren can watch for years to come.
Can a memory be delivered in the future?
Yes. Record a message now and schedule it to arrive on a future birthday, graduation, or wedding — even years from now.
