How It Works
From Photos to Family Chronicle in Four Steps
Living Story turns your scattered photos and fading memories into a beautiful, searchable family chronicle that grows with you.
Import Your Photos
Connect Google Photos or upload directly. Your photos are automatically grouped by event and date.
Connect your Google Photos account or upload photos directly from your phone or computer. Living Story reads the date and location metadata and automatically groups your photos by event and month. No manual sorting required — your photos are organized and ready for stories in seconds.
Tell the Real Story
Add what the photo can't show. The story behind the birthday candles. Why your daughter was crying happy tears. What your family still laughs about from that road trip. Type it or just press record and talk.
Every photo has a story the image alone cannot tell. Who was there? What happened right before the shutter clicked? What did your kid say that made everyone laugh? Type the story or press record and talk — Living Story captures your voice, transcribes it perfectly, and pairs it with the photo forever. Your children will not just see the moment. They will know what it meant.
Your Family's Year Comes Together
Month by month, your photos and stories weave into a living chronicle that grows with your family. New memories slot in automatically.
As you add stories throughout the year, Living Story weaves them into a month-by-month chronicle. New memories slot in automatically alongside the right photos and dates. Your family can browse by month, search by topic, or just scroll through the year as it unfolds. It is a living document that grows richer with every story you add.
Year in Review
Every year, your family gets a Wrapped-style experience — your best moments, most-told stories, favorite quotes, and highlights you can share.
At the end of each year, Living Story compiles your family's best moments into a Wrapped-style Year in Review experience. Your most-told stories, favorite photos, memorable quotes, and highlights are presented in a beautiful, shareable format. It is the annual tradition your family never knew they needed — a celebration of the year you lived together.
Your kids won't remember the details. But they'll remember the stories you saved.
