A Qeepsake alternative that starts with your photos.
Qeepsake sends text-message prompts and turns your answers into a baby journal and printed books. Plenty of parents say it is the only way they kept a journal at all. Others, in recent reviews, describe prompts that repeat and entries locked when the free tier ended. Our Little World starts from the photos instead.

How Our Little World differs
Photos first
With your permission, both parents' photo libraries are sorted into each child's space from birth. The book has photos in it before you write a word.
No texts to answer
There are no text-message prompts, no streaks, and no completion score.
Two equal parents
Both parents can add Firsts, letters, and voice notes to the same space, in their own words.
No feed, no ads
There is no public feed, no likes, no followers, and no ads.
To be fair
Who should stay with Qeepsake
Stay with Qeepsake if the text prompts are what keep you writing, or if a printed book each year is the goal. That is what it does best. Our Little World is for parents who would rather the photos take care of themselves and add words when they want to.
