Their book is written from what they say. One question a week, by text. They tap a link and talk. Every answer is written into real chapters, childhood to now, in their own voice, with their photos. A 7 × 10 hardcover, printed when the book is finished and shipped to you. A keepsake made to be handed down.
Most get it done in two to four months, a few minutes a week. The printed hardcover ships about a week after they finish.
They install nothing. They tap one link in a text and talk. If they can take a phone call, they can do this.

In their own words.
So easy for my grandpa who hates typing. He just talks, and the book came out beautifully.
Best gift I've ever given my mom. She just talks once a week and it turns into real chapters.
Gave this to my mom for her birthday and the finished book is gorgeous, they even put her on the cover.

Got this for my dad who never talks about himself. There are stories in this book none of us had heard.
Ogden, UT
I just answered the questions. That's all I had to do. They sent me back a book that sounds like me. My daughter said she could hear my voice on every page.
All my father had to do was speak, and the hardcover reads exactly the way he talks at dinner.
ngl was nervous my grandma wouldnt get the tech but she just talks now, obsessed with the book.
A genuine gift for our whole family. My dad's voice is on paper now for good.
Logan, UT
So easy for my mother. She just talks, no typing at all, and the hardcover turned out lovely.

Most get it done in two to four months, a few minutes a week. The printed hardcover ships about a week after they're done.
Their actual voice. Every answer is recorded, so you keep the audio and the way they tell it, the laugh, the pauses, the phrasing. The book is written from what they said, in their own words.
Yes. Kids and grandkids can add questions, memories and photos, and your own memories of them belong in the book too. It stays in their voice, with room for the people who love them.
