Moving from Tinybeans to LifeWell
A private photo journal of a child's days, shared with chosen relatives. Choose Tinybeans if you want a simple private feed of a child's photos that grandparents can follow by email. Choose LifeWell if you want the record to outgrow childhood: the same people, their tree, their memories and their health, with a free plan stated plainly.

How to move across
- Open LifeWell and sign in. Start with yourself.
- Add the people you already have in Tinybeans, 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 Tinybeans 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.
