What is Lifestream Chronicles?
Lifestream Chronicles is an autobiography app and web app that helps you create your life story, wedding story, or baby documentary without writing it yourself. You answer guided questions, speak naturally (captured by voice-to-text), and add photos and memories. Your entries are organized into a chronological timeline of chapters, which you can then export as a file, an edited keepsake book, or a printed book delivered to your door.
What kinds of stories can I record?
Three: a Life Autobiography — one person’s whole life, from childhood to now; a Wedding Story — two people’s love story, from how you met to the wedding day; and a Baby Documentary — one tiny life, from the first positive test to the early days as a family. Each has its own guided chapters, and you pick the story when you start so every chronicle stays separate.
Do I have to write my autobiography myself?
No. That's the whole point of Lifestream. You don't sit down and write from a blank page — you answer questions about your life and talk the way you talk to a friend. Type your answers or speak them, and your casual, everyday recollections become an organized, beautifully written life story.
Can I record my answers instead of typing?
Yes. Tap the voice button and speak naturally — the app transcribes your words into a written entry in real time, so your story is captured the way you actually tell it. You can mix spoken and typed entries freely.
How does Lifestream Chronicles create an autobiography?
It guides you with questions across the chapters of a life — childhood, family, work, love, and lessons learned. Each answer becomes an entry on your timeline, and the timeline auto-organizes into chapters. From there you can self-export, or use the Draft Autobiography or Full-Service Book to turn your entries into a finished book.
Can I add photographs to my story?
Yes. Attach photos to your entries so each memory keeps its full context — the place, the people, the feeling. Photos are preserved alongside the text and carried into your export or book.
Can I create an autobiography for my parents?
Yes. The person whose life is being recorded (the subject) can be a parent or any family member, while you handle the capture. It's a common way to preserve a parent's memories and pass them to the next generation.
Can I preserve my family's stories?
Absolutely. Lifestream is built for exactly this — capturing the people, places, and lessons of a life so a family's history can be kept and shared, page by page, for generations.
Can I create a book from my life story?
Yes. The DIY Export Kit gives you one organized file, the Draft Autobiography turns your entries into a chapter-organized, book-format PDF, and the Full-Service Book is a printed, bound book delivered to your door — priced live based on your choices.
How much do the services cost?
The DIY Export Kit is a one-time $5.99 payment. The Draft Autobiography — your entries organized into chapters and edited into a polished, book-format keepsake, with revisions — is a one-time $59.99. The Full-Service Book (designed, printed, and shipped to you anywhere in the world) is priced live based on your book's size, paper, page count and destination country — get your exact price in seconds on the live pricing page, quoted in USD and charged in PHP.
