The little days, kept
Photos and videos land on the day they happened, so years from now you can open any week and find it just as it was. Mark a first the moment it happens: the first smile, the first tooth, the first wobbly steps. Age milestones appear on their own as your child grows, so you always know how old they were.
Tape it, pin it, frame it. Each photo gets the border and color you pick, on the paper you choose for the whole journal.
Tap a heart, leave a note
Family & friends react and comment on every photo and video. You see who loved it, and what they had to say.

Questions
Who can see our photos and videos?
Only the people a parent invites. There are no public profiles and no search. An invite link is the only way in, it works once and expires after 48 hours, and a parent can remove anyone.
Is Beansprout free?
Yes. Photos, videos, firsts, and family and friends are free. Beansprout Plus is an optional subscription for the household.
Does the whole family need Plus?
No. One Plus subscription covers every member of the household.
What are the exact Plus limits?
Free videos are up to 90 seconds and play at up to 720p. Plus videos are up to 10 minutes and play at up to 1080p. On Free, the original photo and video files are kept for at least 180 days after upload. On Plus, they're kept for as long as the household is on Plus.
What happens if I stop paying for Plus?
Your photos, videos, and firsts stay exactly where they are, visible to the whole household. The journal goes back to a free paper, new uploads follow the free limits, and the original files start a 180-day clock from that day. Come back within 180 days and nothing is lost.
Can I use Beansprout in a browser?
No. Beansprout is an app for iPhone and Android, and family and friends use the app too.
