A gentle guide through seven chapters of your life
Eine geführte Reise durch sieben Kapitel deines Lebens – von Kindheitserinnerungen bis zur hart erkämpften Weisheit.
Where do you start when telling your life story? At the beginning, of course — but that's easier said than done. Tell Me Your Story solves this with a guided journey through seven chronological life chapters, from your earliest childhood memories to the wisdom you've gathered over a lifetime.
Each chapter comes with warm, thoughtful prompts designed to spark memories you might not think to share on your own. "What was your family home like?" "Tell me about your first crush." "What's the greatest adventure you ever had?" The prompts are gentle suggestions, not requirements — you can always record freely about whatever comes to mind.
You move through chapters at your own pace. After a few stories in one chapter, the app gently suggests moving on — but never pushes. Some chapters might have twenty stories; others might have two. There's no right or wrong way to tell your life story. The journey is yours.
