Add photos and a voice worth keeping

Make recordings useful with context, clear sound, and thoughtful captions.

  1. Choose a quiet setting

    Record a brief test. Keep the microphone close and ask one open question, such as “What do you remember about your first home?” Let the speaker finish without interruption.

  2. Upload or record in your record editor

    Use the media controls in the guided record flow. Allow microphone access when recording. If permission is blocked, check your browser’s site settings or upload an existing recording.

  3. Give the memory its context

    Add the people, place, approximate date, and why the item matters. Mark uncertain dates as approximate instead of inventing precision.

  4. Play it back before publishing

    Preview every item and remove accidental recordings. The Free plan allows up to five photos and one audio item per record; paid record plans have expanded media access.
