I found that the set-up was great. Being able to edit my answers and add to each chapter was a asset, I did find that adding photos was at times difficult and not having them going to the bottom of the text was not where I wanted them. The other thing to would improve my experience would be to have the question text match the preview pages. All in all after trying to figure out how to manipulate the photos and text I thought that this is a wonderful way to produce a book. The cover page is an added bonus.

I was excited to get this for my Father, who turned 77 last year. He had the whole year to work on it and complete it so we could put his book together for 2026. The questions that were asked each week were really great and emotive. I love that they also offer the option to add-on a ghostwriter for those who would rather have someone else do the writing, and the option to record your stories instead of writing them out.
The weekly updates were also helpful. My Father's first language is not english and so he's found it difficult to write. I originally thought this would be a great thing for him and me to do together once a week, so I could help with the writing. We haven't finished the questions for it, but the great thing is it can be done on your own time, and there's no rush - allowing us to go at ou own speed. I am so excited for him to have this and for the family to have this book as a keepsake to be passed down.

Was given this as a Christmas gift. It brought back some wonderful memories and a great place to share them with my family. Easy to follow cues given weekly which helped me remember experiences that I could share.

This was given to me as a gift but turned out to be a great experience as I looked back on my life and revived some great memories. The questions were all relevant and you can skip ones you dont want to answer. Overall a great experience

A thoughtful gift for a milestone birthday

We presented this to my mom for her 70th birthday, and she found it relatively easy to use on her phone after we assisted her with the app download and initial setup. I took care of the final review and approval of the book, which included adding photos, rearranging some questions, and selecting a cover. While there were a few awkward moments in the user experience and it would have been great to have more customization options (like repositioning photos, altering text color on the cover, or cropping cover photos directly in the app), the overall process of finalizing the book was quite user-friendly. I'm excited to see the final printed version in a few weeks! It will make for a lovely keepsake!

An Excellent Gift for Elderly Loved Ones

This is an outstanding gift, particularly for those with elderly parents like myself. It's wonderful to have them document their thoughts and life experiences that may not come up in daily conversations. Additionally, it serves as a beautiful keepsake to preserve their memories.

A wonderful experience for future generations

The experience was fantastic as it offers a means for future generations to learn more about the family foundation that came before them. Additionally, it allowed my wife and me to reflect on our own lives. One unexpected outcome was discovering new things about my wife, despite being married for 35 years. Ultimately, it is a truly enriching experience for all participants.

A Thoughtful Gift That Sparked Reflection

A thoughtful gift from my youngest child last Christmas, which introduced me to a concept I had never encountered before. It has prompted me to reflect deeply on every phase of my life in a way I hadn't considered prior. The provided questions are incredibly helpful for getting started, and I've found myself needing to do additional research to fill in the gaps. I faced some health challenges during the summer, so I reached out in November to explain my situation and requested a brief extension on the December deadline. They were very understanding and graciously granted my request, allowing me to get back on track to finish by next month. I plan to order three copies of my book, one for each of my children. Highly recommended. Thank you!

A Unique Gift with Some Challenges

We purchased book subscriptions for our parents so that our daughter can have their stories preserved formally and read them when she's older. It's a truly special gift. However, it does come with the understanding that it requires effort from the gift receivers. Out of the three subscriptions we bought, only one grandparent managed to complete the book prompts. So, it's important to be realistic about who can commit to this. If the book isn't completed within a year, there’s a $59 fee to extend access to the book print, which is actually more than our original purchase since the service often goes on sale. That’s a bit disappointing!

Delighted with the final product of my year-long project

I just received the completed version of my year-long project from the service, and it's a beautifully crafted book. My children and grandchildren now each have a copy, and they absolutely love it.
