First steps (week 1)
- Sketch parents, siblings, grandparents
- List 10 key dates (births, moves, weddings)
- Record a 2–5 minute voice note with consent
| Source | Where to store | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Old photos | Memory Lane | Tag people, place, date |
| Documents | Memory Lane | Add a 1–2 sentence caption |
| Stories | Voice notes | Transcribe for search |
FAQs
