How does it actually handle getting older relatives to participate if they aren't super tech savvy, and is there a way to involve family members who have already passed through old recordings or written stories?

@medineasl16675 Great questions! Older adults can also answer questions directly in the browser. The UI is designed to be easy to navigate, featuring large, adjustable font sizes. As of now, there is no functionality to upload existing recordings of deceased family members, but if that's something a broader audience would be interested in, it could definitely be built! :)

The way it gently prompts relatives with thoughtful questions instead of a blank recording screen is such a smart touch, it removes that awkward "what do I say" moment and actually gets people sharing.
