Keep a usable copy
From draft to story page.
Browser layout
Add a title, speaker and original text. Translation and family context are optional. Choose Preview story, read the result and mark it reviewed. Download story page creates an HTML file you can open in a browser without this website. Edits invalidate the previous preview and review mark.
Nothing is saved automatically. Save on this device retains one editable draft, including private reminders. A downloaded private JSON draft can be restored into this browser editor, including unfinished fields; a reviewed HTML page contains public story fields only and excludes private reminders. Private text JSON drafts contain no audio or photograph. A separate private recording draft includes the complete audio and all text, including reminders; its maximum size is 15 MiB. Neither format contains a photograph. A reviewed HTML page can carry an explicitly included recording; keep its original file separately. It is not a native app backup.
Native backups
The native development app's full backup includes all stories, notes and original files. A selected-story ZIP is for sharing; it is not a full backup. Keep a private backup before replacing a project or removing the app. Native app distribution is not available here yet.
Text limits
Title and speaker: 100 characters each. Original and translation: 10,000 characters each. Family context and private reminder: 2,000 characters each. The browser layout supports one story at a time. Private JSON draft files are limited to 100 KB. Restoring replaces the form only after confirmation and does not replace the saved browser draft until you choose Save. Read the draft-saving guide.
