What is a life timeline app?
A way to keep what you have lived through in date order, rather than by album or by conversation.
A life timeline app keeps what you have lived through in date order. That is the difference from a camera roll, which sorts by device, and from a messaging app, which sorts by conversation: here the main axis is time, and everything else hangs off it.
In practice you create life lines — career, travel, family, a project — and drop moments onto them. A moment carries a date or a date range, a place, photos and documents, and it can belong to several life lines at once: a work trip is as much travel as it is work.
People also call this a digital memory book, a life journal app or a digital scrapbook. The distinction is a real one: a journal is kept day by day and a scrapbook is leafed through, while a timeline is looked at from a distance — it is as much for seeing the overall shape as for finding one detail.
That is what Vybz does. You start with one moment, add others as they happen — or long afterwards, since nothing requires them in order — and the timeline fills itself in. Every moment stays private until you decide to share it.
Frequently asked questions
What is a life timeline app?
It is an app that keeps what you have lived through in date order, rather than by album or by conversation. Instead of an endless camera roll you get life lines — career, travel, family — running side by side, each carrying its own moments. Vybz is one: you add a moment with its date, its place and its photos, and your story takes shape as you go.
Is Vybz free?
Yes, you can start for free and keep what you create. A subscription adds PDF attachments, unlimited life lines, and batch import, which sorts a whole trip's photos by day and place.
Who can see my moments?
Only you, unless you decide otherwise. Every moment is private by default, and you can share it with contacts you pick, one at a time. No moment is ever public on the web, and nothing you record is indexed by search engines.
Can I share a single moment with a single person?
Yes. Sharing is per moment rather than per life line: you send a single-use invite link, and only the person who opens it gets access. You can revoke that access at any time.
