What’s new
Everything that has come to Laterly lately, newest first.
Newest first
The timeline now shows what you kept most recently at the top, whatever day it happened. Tap “By date” to see each moment in its own month.
A voice note for the month’s photos
Add a short voice note to the month’s photos and say what happened, in your own voice.
Birthday interview
Five questions to ask your child every birthday, with last year’s answers next to each one. Record them in their own voice; next year the new answers sit beside these.
A journal before they’re born
Start a journal for a baby on the way, or a child you’re adopting: a question each week, moments to keep (the first scan, the kicks, a bump photo each month if you’d like a reminder), letters for the day they’re born and questions for the family. When the baby is here, it all moves into their journal. You can pause it, keep it quietly or delete it.
Year in review
On the birthday morning, a look back at the year you kept, a card to share with family and a note for the day.
More than 1,700 questions
Questions for every age from birth to 16, for the seasons and for your family’s own days. Three new cards each day, a reminder at your time with Record and Write right in the notification, a break when you need one, and no question twice once you’ve answered it.
Face ID or Touch ID
The app lock uses the lock your phone has.
Today’s photos
In the evening, Laterly can suggest the photos you took today, so keeping them takes a tap. Turn it on or off in You › Today’s photos.
Photos as they were taken
Photos are kept as the originals, with their date and place, and Live Photos keep their moving clip. Touch and hold to play it.
Monthly or yearly
Plus is now monthly or yearly; yearly costs 40% less. Plus+ has 1 TB for big families.
Six languages
Laterly, this website and the App Store speak English, Polish, German, Spanish, Italian and French. Grandparents get questions and emails in their own language.
Invites your way
Invite family into the app, or send a journal link they can use without it. For each memory, choose Family or Only me.
This iPhone only, and your own copy
Keep some memories on your phone only. And let Laterly keep a copy of the journal in Files, iCloud Drive or Google Drive.
Dates from your calendars
Bring birthdays and important days in from the calendars on your phone, and send the journal’s days back to Google, Apple or Outlook calendars.
This month’s photos
Every month, the month’s photos come together in one roundup.
Search
Find any word in titles, letters and voice notes, and filter by kind or by who added it.
Family events, storytellers and letters for later
One QR code for a party, so guests add photos and wishes without an app. A weekly question grandparents answer with their voice. Letters that stay sealed, even for you, until the day you choose. Voice notes written down on your phone.
