Questions
Good questions, plain answers.
What does it cost?
Thought Vault is a yearly or monthly subscription through the App Store or Google Play. Your first story is free, and you will see the price before you pay.
Does my family need the app to open a story?
No. Each story arrives by email with a link that opens in any web browser, on a phone or a computer. There is no password to remember.
Who can see my stories?
Only you, and the people you send them to. We never sell your information or use your stories for advertising.
Is my voice used to train AI?
No. When we write out your words, the service doing it doesn't keep your recording or learn from it.
What if I stop paying?
You can still open the app and listen to every story, and every story you already scheduled still goes out. Recording new stories and scheduling new ones pause until the subscription is renewed.
What happens to my stories after I die?
Every story you scheduled goes out as planned, even years from now, and even if the subscription has ended. Stories you keep private forever are never shared with anyone.
Can I delete a story?
Yes. Deleted stories wait in Recently deleted for 30 days, so a slip is easy to undo. We only delete your stories or your account when you ask.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes, Thought Vault works on both, and it follows your phone's own text size and accessibility settings.
