The podcast link is brilliant - you just get things you couldn't get in a book like laughing or the background in a recording! I am so happy we have this for all the grandkids.

SUPER idea. In a world where we're all so disconnected, capturing all the things we mean to each other is just priceless. Make the time, do it!

How it works

Getting everyone in is easy!

The page everyone sees when they open the link, with a name typed in
1. Send the link to the group chat. They open it on their own phone and say who they are.
The recording screen, with a question and a big record button
2. They tap and talk. Or write it instead, or ask for a different question.
The video screen, with someone on camera answering the question
3. Or they film a video. They look at the camera and say it straight to Mum.

When everyone's in, you choose the podcast, the book online or the printed book.

The questions

One good question can unlock a great story!

Three of these go in the book to start. Swap in any you like, or write your own.

  1. What's your favourite memory of the two of you?
  2. What's the funniest thing that ever happened when you were together?
  3. What's a voice note from them you've kept?
  4. What do you love about them?
  5. What do they always say?
  6. What song makes you think of them?
  7. What would you like to thank them for?
  8. What do you want them to hear from you?

Questions people ask

What is a voice note keepsake?

It's something you keep that holds the voices of the people you love. With Chorus everyone sends a voice note, each one is written out on its own page of a book, and one link plays every voice.

Do people need an app to send a voice note?

No. There's nothing to install, so they open the link, press record and talk.

Can we add voice notes we already have?

Yes! Add the voice notes, videos and photos you already have, from WhatsApp or your camera roll. Each voice note is written out and goes in the book.

Can people send a video instead?

Yes. Anyone can record a voice note or film a video, and each one gets its own page.

How much does a voice note keepsake book cost?

It doesn't cost anything to collect the voice notes. When the book is ready, you choose the podcast, the book online or the printed hardcover.

Can someone write their message instead?

Yes. Anyone can type their message instead of recording it, and add a photo with it.

Can everyone chip in?

Yes, if you turn chip-in on. What everyone puts in comes off what you pay.

Gathering is free. Everyone will love being part of it.
