What’s a family photo whose story only one person remembers?

Hi everyone I m Xavier, maker of Braid, launching here tomorrow.

Braid started when I noticed my phone held thousands of family photos but almost none of the stories behind them. When I asked relatives about the same photo, everyone remembered it a little differently, and some stories only lived in one person s head.

So I m curious: do you have a photo like that? One where the real story is with a parent, grandparent or old friend?

And for those who ve tried to capture family stories before (journals, voice memos, apps), what made you stop?

Braid - Memories - Capture the stories behind your family photos

Braid turns your photo library into shared memories. It finds meaningful moments in your photos, you pick the ones that matter, and tell the story behind each one by voice or text. Share a memory with friends and family so they can add their own perspective. No app needed: they just open a link. Memories link to each other, so revisiting one brings back the rest. Made for families who want to keep their stories before they’re forgotten.
