Your Life Deserves a Highlight Reel

We're excited to announce Memory Movies—a feature that automatically creates beautiful video summaries from your journal entries and photos. Think of it as your personal documentary, crafted automatically from the moments you've captured throughout the year.

How Memory Movies Work

Memory Movies pull from your journal entries, connected photos, and location data to create a cohesive narrative of your year. The AI selects the most meaningful moments, pairs them with the right visuals, and adds music and transitions that match the emotional tone of your journey.

Choose Your Style

Pro users get access to multiple cinematic styles:

  • Nostalgic: Warm tones and gentle transitions perfect for reflection
  • Epic: Dynamic cuts and energetic music for your biggest achievements
  • Minimalist: Clean, simple, and focused on the content
  • Seasonal: Automatically adapts to the time of year

Premium users can create custom styles and longer videos with advanced editing controls.

Watch Anywhere

Memory Movies are designed to be viewed on any device—from your phone during your commute to your TV in the living room with family. Share them privately with loved ones or keep them as personal time capsules to revisit in years to come.

More Than Just Nostalgia

Watching your Memory Movies isn't just a trip down memory lane—it's a chance to see patterns in your life you might have missed. Notice how your summer was filled with outdoor adventures while winter brought creative indoor projects. See the progression of that fitness goal you set in January. Celebrate the small wins you forgot you had.

Start creating your first Memory Movie today—it's included with Journaly Pro.
