Otherwise: Alternate Life
What if one choice changed?
Free · In‑App Purchases
What if that choice had gone differently? Read three lives written in your own voice from your real memories. None of them is better; each one is different.
Otherwise gathers the turning points of your real life on a timeline. Add memories by speaking or typing, pick one moment and ask what would have happened if it had gone differently. Otherwise writes the years that follow as a story, in your own voice.
Every turning point has three separate lives. None of them is better; each one is different. Every life has its gain and its cost.
• Build your timeline: tell your memories or add them by hand, and edit them anytime.
• Choose the turning point: your real past stays intact; only what comes after is rewritten.
• Shape your alternative: a short conversation sets what changes.
• Read your story: a narrative told in scenes that takes a few minutes to read.
• Share it: send a "What I gained / What I never lived" card to your feed or your story.
Stories are written by AI. Each one is a possible story, not prophecy, advice, or medical, legal, or financial guidance.
Start with a free account. Pro opens the other two lives of every turning point, gives you more stories and more room for memories, and removes ads. Subscriptions renew and cancel through your App Store account.

• Every turning point now has three separate lives. You read the first; Pro opens the other two.
• Stories are written by a new engine, in your own voice and told in scenes.
• New share card: "What I gained / What I never lived", in feed (4:5) and story (9:16) sizes.
• Sharing your card is an invite: when a friend finishes their first story, you both get a story.
• A refreshed introduction and quick preview: tell your memory with the microphone or start from example sentences.
• Account security improvements and bug fixes.
