Moving from Remento to LifeWell
Weekly spoken prompts turned into written chapters and a hardcover book with a QR code that plays the voice. Choose Remento if the point is a parent's voice, recorded with no app or login, and a book you can hear. Choose LifeWell if you want one free place for the people, the memories, the tree and the appointments, not a one-year book project.

How to move across
- Open LifeWell and sign in. Start with yourself.
- Add the people you already have in Remento, one record at a time (people). LifeWell does not import from other services, so start with those closest to you.
- Link them to each other, and the family tree draws itself.
- Add the memories that matter, with a photo, a date and a place (memories).
- Keep Remento for anything LifeWell does not do, such as historical records or DNA.

LifeWell does not keep the audio of a conversation yet: it writes down what you say. It cannot print your tree for a wall, it has no to-do list for today, and it has no iPhone app. It is not medical advice.
