How it works

Four small steps. One family archive.

Start with a few photos. Add the people you recognise. Invite family when you're ready. Memrial keeps the stories beside the memories, so nothing gets lost in old phones, drawers, and group chats.

Start your archive, free Walk me through it

Step 1: Gather a few memories

Start with what you already have.

A phone album, a shoebox, a folder of scans, or one old video is enough. You do not need to sort the whole family history before you begin.

On your phone: the recent photos people keep asking for.
Around the house: albums, envelopes of prints, pictures tucked into books.
On old tapes: weddings, birthdays, holidays, school plays.

Step 2: Add them to the archive

Upload a little now, add more later.

Bring in one photo, a weekend's worth, or a whole folder. Memrial keeps the original safe and gives you a clean place to come back to when you want to add names, dates, and stories.

Keep the originals. The files you add remain available for the family to download.
Come and go. Bigger videos can be left to finish while you get on with your day.
Use what you have. Phone photos, scans, short clips, and home videos all belong here.

Step 3: Add the people

Tag once. Find them everywhere.

Add a name to a face once. After that, a parent's photos, a grandparent's videos, and every memory they appear in are easy to find together.

Open a person's page to see their photos and videos in one place.
Younger family members can learn who everyone is as they browse.
If another branch of the family joins later, you can connect the same person there too.
