My Family Album is an iOS app for arranging a child’s photos and videos into private stories and timelines. It builds a chronological life timeline and uses on-device AI to detect events such as birthdays, holidays, and trips, then suggest stories. Stories can become presentation videos through templates. Separate timelines support multiple children, while invited family members can view stories and media privately instead of through public posts. Face search, shared albums, family sharing, and video backup are also available. Media is encrypted on the device with AES-256-GCM before upload, with RSA-OAEP key wrapping for per-user access. AI analysis stays on the device, and media is not sent to the maker or third parties for AI processing. The service is developed by Kidslox for adults, parents, and legal guardians. It is free to download, with an in-app purchase listed at 109.99 USD once.
Who it is for
It suits parents and legal guardians who want private, organized media timelines for one or more children. It is intended for adults; children may not create accounts independently.
