Memoria

A voice-first app that helps older adults capture life stories.

Memoria is a voice-first iOS app for older adults who want to preserve personal memories. The hardest part is often not recording — it is knowing how to begin.

I designed and built the product end to end around swipeable prompts, voice recording, and AI transcription. It is currently live in TestFlight.

The Problem

The blank page is the real barrier

Many older adults have stories worth keeping, but starting can feel harder than remembering. Existing tools often assume users already know what they want to record. Memoria is designed around that first moment: helping people begin.

The Product Approach

Prompts first. Voice as the easiest path in.

Instead of asking people to start from nothing, the app offers swipeable prompts that make entry easier. Users respond by voice, AI turns the recording into text, and each memory becomes part of a growing archive they can return to later.

Current State
Live in TestFlight

Designed and built end to end, now in TestFlight

Memoria is a solo product. I own the product decisions, visual design, and engineering. The current build is live in TestFlight, with ongoing work focused on onboarding, archive usability, and the interaction details that make the experience easier to return to.

I'm still actively updating Memoria. If you're interested and have an iPhone, you're welcome to try the current TestFlight build.
