  • "I love being able to record the silly conversations with my talkative toddler in an authentic way! It's such a fun and simple way to capture our moments together. Definitely something I would use more naturally than other apps that can feel overly curated an intimidating. So glad I found leaf!"

    Joey de la Rosa

  • "Essential for all parents!!! Personally, as a mother of 4 children I love to listen to their little conversations and such. The Leaf App has made it possible, for me to record all those amazing little moments and listen back anytime I want. I highly recommend this app! Love it so much!"

    Jennifer Cartwright

  • “leaf has allowed my family to capture stories from my mother, who it suffering from memory loss...stories about her growing up in Bolivia and how she met with my dad. Sometimes the stories are in Spanish, sometimes in English.We love how easy they are to share with other family members. My husband and I have a baby on the way that will one day get to know his grandmother in a way that was previously not possible, thanks to leaf."

    Sabrina Benedict

  • "My wife and I got married this past summer and one of the best gifts we received was a Leaf Event! All our friends left us recordings giving us marriage advice in their own way (humorous, serious, via song). It was such a great way to commemorate our special weekend. It was particularly fun to have some of our friends continue to send us Leafs days and weeks after our event - it felt like it was extending our wedding! We love that we’ll have this to save and come back to for many years into the future."

  • "leaf let's you build an audio memory bank that you will treasure as the years pass; I've used it to save countless family audio memories. It's amazing to play back stories and relive those moments."

    Sam E.

  • "leaf is so easy to use. I simply opened the app, pressed record and instantly started preserving wonderful family stories for generations to come."

    Jeremy Stern

  • "What an incredible application! As my mom is getting older, I’ve already used this product several times to capture all of those questions I wanted to ask her for years. The Product is so easy to use, and I appreciate that it generates prompts for you, something that can be challenging to come up with on your own. I also really love the fact that my recordings are safe and secure, and I can always come back to them. One of the things I worry about most is that I record all of this priceless content, only for it to go missing, or for it to get a raced. I love leaf, and I’ve already shared it with so many of my friends and family."

    Sue Harper

  • "We received some leaf messages from friends as a wedding gift - what a special experience! We love being able to replay and listen to the well wishes together at anytime. Really such a cool way to collect and build memories!"

    Lillian CT
