Frequently Asked Questions
EverWritten is a private journaling app for iOS and web, built for the words that matter most. You can journal for yourself, write directly to a loved one, add photos and voice recordings, and one day print your journal as a beautifully bound linen book. It's a place to preserve your memories — and leave something behind for the people you love. Not sure what to write? Start with one of our prompts →
EverWritten is available on iPhone via the App Store and on any web browser at my.everwritten.co. Your journal syncs in real time across both, so your words are always where you are.
Completely. Every entry is protected with military-grade end-to-end encryption — which means only you can read your words. We never access your journal, we never share it, and we never will. You can also set up a passphrase and a cloud escrow key so you're never locked out of your own memories.
The Beneficiary Feature lets you designate trusted people — a spouse, a child, a close friend — who will receive access to your journal and legacy content when the time comes. You stay in control of who receives it and what they can see. It's the closest thing to a letter that will always be delivered. Available on Keepsake and Heirloom plans.
Yes — and it doesn't expire. The Classic plan is free forever, no credit card required. It includes everything you need to start writing and preserving your memories. When you're ready for more — photos, audio, Collections, the Beneficiary Feature — paid plans start at $8/month.
Your words are always yours. If you downgrade to the Classic plan, your existing entries remain safe and accessible. You keep everything you've written — you simply lose access to the premium features until you choose to reactivate. We'll never delete your memories.
Yes, anytime. If you upgrade, your new features are available immediately. If you downgrade, you keep your current features through the end of your billing period. No penalties, no friction.
You can. Gift subscriptions are available for any paid plan — a meaningful gift for a parent, a grandparent, a new mother, or anyone with a story worth keeping. Visit the pricing page for gift options.
EverWritten books are children's storybooks with journaling pages inside. Each book pairs a tender narrative with space for parents, grandparents, or caregivers to write their own words — the ones that will matter most, long after the reading is done. The first book, Raindrops & Rainbows, is available now. Visit the Books page to learn more.
