Is Simirity similar to Storyworth?
While both focus on family stories, there’s a fundamental difference in approach. StoryWorth sends weekly questions via email to a single person and creates an annual book about that one person’s life. Simirity is designed for the whole family to participate together – everyone contributes stories, responds to each other, and builds a shared family narrative.
Many people feel uncomfortable being the sole focus of family storytelling. With Simirity, the spotlight isn’t just on one person – it’s shared across the entire family. Your children’s current adventures are just as valued as grandparents’ historical memories, creating a balanced family story where everyone has a voice.
StoryWorth’s content is also limited to what fits in a physical book – text and photos. Being digital, Simirity offers much more flexibility: interactive maps, voice recordings, videos, and real-time conversations between family members rather than waiting for an end-of-year compilation.
Perhaps most importantly, physical books often end up on shelves, rarely opened. Simirity weaves your family’s past into daily life through story reminders and anniversaries, keeping precious memories active rather than archived away.
