What is Mylyfe?
Your grandparent has stories they have never told you. We help you capture them before they are gone forever.
Your grandmother remembers things about the war, about her parents, about falling in love, that she has never told anyone. Not because she would not share them — but because nobody ever asked.
We all believe there will be more time. To ask the questions. To record the stories. To capture the voice. And then one day there is not. Mylyfe exists for before that day.
A photograph shows a face. A voice carries warmth, humour, and character that no photograph can hold. Future grandchildren will hear your grandmother laugh at her own stories. That is priceless.
Most people do not know where to start. Our guided interviewer knows exactly which questions open doors — and which threads to follow when a story begins to unfold.
Chapter One is completely free — no card needed. Enter a name and begin. The interviewer does everything else.
A warm interviewer guides a 20-40 minute voice conversation through childhood, family, work, and love. No typing. Just talking.
After each chapter, review your answers and add anything you wish you had said. One chance to elaborate before your story is written.
Mylyfe turns your answers into beautiful memoir prose after every chapter. Download it, share it, keep it forever.
Every chapter can be gifted — perfect for Christmas, birthdays, or Mother's Day. Start a session as a gift →
A warm, guided interviewer asks thoughtful questions about every chapter of their life. They just speak — no typing, no forms, no technology to figure out. The questions follow the conversation naturally, just like talking to a friend.
After every chapter, Mylyfe takes everything they said and writes it as beautiful flowing prose — warm, literary, in their own voice. Not a transcript. A real memoir. Growing richer with every chapter they complete.
Before each chapter is written, they see every question and answer and can add anything they wish they had said. The moment people see their story developing, they always want to elaborate. This is that moment.
Saved, downloadable, and easy to share. Read it once or read it every year — the words don't change, but what they mean to you might.
The full transcript and the complete memoir are downloadable at any time. Copy it, share it by email, print it at home. It belongs to your family — not to us.
Life is busy. Save your session with an email and a code. Come back a day later, a week later, whenever feels right. The story waits exactly where you left it.
Most people spend their lives meaning to ask their grandparents, their parents, their aunts and uncles — about the details. The real details. Where they grew up. What the world looked like through their eyes. What they know that the rest of us do not.
Mylyfe is the gift that captures all of it — before the chance is gone. Buy it as a gift for Christmas, a birthday, Mother's Day, or just because you know the time is now.
See all packagesYou buy the package. They set up the session at their own pace. The stories come to you — and stay with your family forever.
The people who get the most from Mylyfe are the ones who treat it like a conversation with an old friend. Here is how to make yours unforgettable.
Don't worry about grammar or finding the perfect word. If you'd say it over a cup of tea, say it here. The natural way you speak is exactly what makes your story real.
Never feel you have said enough. The moment you think you've finished answering — go a little further. What did it smell like? Who else was there? What happened next? Those details are the story.
Pause as long as you need before answering. Sit with the memory. The interviewer will wait. Some of the most beautiful answers come after a long, quiet moment of remembering.
Not just what happened — but how it felt. Were you nervous? Proud? Heartbroken? Surprised? The feelings are what your family will connect with most deeply, long after the facts have blurred.
Pick a time when the house is peaceful and you won't be interrupted. Make a cup of tea. Sit somewhere comfortable. The best sessions feel like quiet reflection — not a task to be completed.
Before you begin, spend ten minutes looking through old photos or letters. Memory works by association — one image unlocks a dozen stories. You'll be amazed what comes back to you.
The small things are often the most treasured. The smell of a grandmother's kitchen. The sound of your father's laugh. The view from your childhood bedroom. These details, shared now, become priceless later.
After each chapter, you'll have one chance to review your answers and add anything you wish you had said. Use it. People almost always think of something important the moment the question is over.
Stop buying things that get forgotten. Give your mum, dad, or grandparent something that lasts forever — their own story, in their own voice, beautifully written.

Not at all. The session is completely voice-based — they tap one large button to speak and the interviewer does everything else. If they can make a phone call, they can use Mylyfe. We also provide a simple printed setup guide you can share with them.
Any computer, tablet, or smartphone with a web browser. They can speak their answers using the microphone or simply type — whichever feels most comfortable. No app or download is needed.
A warm, guided interviewer leads the conversation by voice or text — asking the questions that open doors, following interesting threads, gently prompting deeper memories, and moving naturally through each of the five chapters.
The full five-chapter story takes around an hour at the person's own pace, though Chapter 1 alone takes just 15–25 minutes. There is no rush, and the session saves automatically — they can pause and pick up exactly where they left off, whenever suits them.
There is a Skip button on the screen at all times. No topic is compulsory. The interviewer is warm and respectful — if the person seems reluctant, it moves gently on. This is their story to tell in the way they choose.
Completely. The recordings and transcript are delivered directly to you. They are not stored on any public server and are only accessible to the people you share them with. We take privacy seriously — this is deeply personal content.
Yes — your memoir and transcript are downloadable at any point during or after your session. You can copy the text, save it as a file, share it by email, or print it at any copy shop. It belongs entirely to you and your family.
Every week that passes is a week of stories that could be lost. It takes less than ten minutes to set up a session. The conversation does the rest.
