A digital time capsule is a dynamic way to curate your story for the future. This step-by-step guide shows you how to assemble a rich collection for your children, grandchildren, or even your future self. Go beyond photos: include video messages, voice recordings of family stories, scanned letters from past generations, a playlist of meaningful songs, and documents that explain your family history. We advise on organising themes (e.g., “My Childhood,” “Our Family Traditions”) and setting a future ‘opening’ date for maximum impact. This creative project ensures your lived experience and personality are preserved in vivid detail for those who will wonder about your life.
Future messages allow your voice to be present at life’s milestone moments, even if you cannot be. This guide covers the practicalities of creating these digital gifts. Learn how to write heartfelt content for birthdays, weddings, graduations, or the birth of a grandchild. We then explain the technical setup: how to choose your delivery date (a specific calendar date or a trigger like ‘after my passing’), select your recipients, and upload your video, audio, or text message. Tips on timing and emotional tone ensure your message arrives as a beautiful surprise, offering love, pride, and connection exactly when it will be most meaningful.
