But LifeTales fills an important gap — it’s for the rest of your story … or for private content.  With our intimate environment and customized, story-by-story sharing control, you can share and preserve memories in a way most of us will just not do on public social media.

Easy collaboration

You're in charge of who gets access to view or edit stories.
Share public stories
Add some stories to your very own public page — the world's easiest blog!

Or just share a single story publicly on social media. Takes just seconds.

I was feeling anxious that my kids' pictures were scattered all over the place ... Instagram, Facebook, my phone ... and sometimes a bit too public! LifeTales gives me such an easy way to organize them, share with family AND add commentary. It’s now my main home for stories. I love it!

LifeTales offers me the perfect social media app to share stories and memories with my friends and family. I’m not a big fan of Facebook, frankly, I find it just a little too invasive. With LifeTales I can choose who can see my post without worrying who else will be able to view it.

LifeTales is an awesome way to transform the mountains of family photos I've taken and never done anything with into living stories: they capture what was really happening day-to-day in my kids' lives. I've finally got a place to jot down my thoughts and feelings before they're lost to the next 15 things on my to do list.

LifeTales has made it easy to create and then later to quickly access the post (story). I love the flexibility it offers me to add more photos, texts and videos. Family and friends are able to comment on a post and, if I choose, they may also be able to add to the story.

I’ve always wanted one place to save all my favorite pictures and videos while keeping them private and this is just the app! I love that I can add to it a little bit every day and I don’t have to start the story over. Being able to add a mix of content is awesome as I haven’t found any other app like it.

I downloaded the app and started adding to it for my two kids. It is a really nice way to journal and appreciate the moments that usually go by way too fast.  Thank you so much for introducing me to this wonderful app!

One of my favorite apps! 
Lifetales allows me to compile all of my favorite memories into their own little books. I love to share them with friends and go back and look at them. From family trips to college events, it lets me use videos, pictures, and audio to remember every piece of it!

I’ve been using the app for 3 years and I love it. I just download the pics I like each night and at the end of a trip I have a perfect album

The ability to add a personal comment while recording a child’s milestone is so precious. My next project is to collect some stories from my 90+ year old parents while I still can. Thanks LifeTales for providing me with the perfect tool to do so.
