Ever Known: Life Archive
Your life. In your words.
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Preserve stories, memories, values, and everyday details in your own words. Share deliberately, with clear control over who can access each part.
Your life is made of more than milestones. Ever Known gives stories, memories, values, relationships, traditions, and everyday details a thoughtful place to live—in the words of the person who experienced them.
START WITH A QUESTION
Explore 500 guided questions about childhood, family, personality, favorites, life lessons, advice, and legacy. Answer the one that feels right today, save it for later, or choose another.
PRESERVE WHAT MATTERS
• Write memories in your own words
• Record original audio and video
• Add photographs and documents
• Organize people, relationships, preferences, and life moments
• Keep human-created material distinct from generated text
MORE THAN MEMORIES
The Real Me helps you preserve values, humor, communication style, meaningful reflections, and the details that make someone recognizable. Source labels keep the archive grounded in what was actually saved.
SHARE BY PERMISSION
Ever Known has no public profile or social feed. The archive owner chooses who may access each item. Only Me and Never Share remain unavailable to viewers. Relationships, trustee roles, and subscriptions never create permission by themselves.
PLAN WITH CARE
Family and legacy tools keep roles, future access, and trustee choices explicit. Original owner material remains canonical, and later family contributions retain their source.
BUILT FOR IPHONE AND IPAD
An authenticated Ever Known account can synchronize supported archive data between your Apple devices. The app also keeps an offline-capable working copy and supports portable export.
GUIDANCE WHEN YOU NEED IT
A six-step tutorial explains the archive, guided questions, privacy choices, family invitations, consent, and where to continue. Replay it any time from Settings. Choose among 20 core-interface languages; preserved content stays in its original language.
OPTIONAL SUBSCRIPTIONS
Archive owners can create and manage their own archive without a subscription. Basic invited viewers can access only owner-permitted Shared Essentials. Premium expands preservation and family workflows within the owner’s existing permissions. Ever Known AI includes Premium and can provide source-grounded AI text conversations only when the active subscriber has access and the archive owner separately authorizes AI processing and representation.
AI wording is not the person, consciousness, or communication from an afterlife. Synthetic or cloned voice is not enabled. The app shows exact localized prices, renewal periods, and terms before purchase.
