The details

Compare Free and monthly VIP

Posting limits apply to both My Moments and Family Moments and follow the person posting. A member’s VIP subscription does not upgrade other members’ posting limits.

Letter media limits also follow the creator’s personal account. Members and recipients do not need VIP to view all content they are authorized to access.

Your subscription and content

A few things before you choose.

What happens to my Moments when VIP expires?

Saved photos and audio stay intact. You can still view them, edit text and tags, reorder photos, or remove content. Adding photos or re-recording audio follows your current limits. A saved set of 30 photos is not trimmed, but you must get below the free limit before adding more.

Can I write a Letter before adding friends?

Yes. Write to yourself, or save a Letter and choose a friend as its recipient later. Letters without a recipient are not delivered.

Does my VIP subscription also give my friends VIP?

No. VIP belongs to the subscribing account. You can add more photos and longer audio to each letter. Recipients can view all delivered content without VIP.

Will my Letters be deleted if I stop subscribing?

No. Your existing Letters stay saved if you stop subscribing or VIP expires, including all photos and longer recordings saved while you had VIP. Expiry does not trim saved content or stop delivery under your original settings. New letters follow your current limits. Recipients still need access, and letters wait for the conditions of your chosen delivery mode. If you delete a letter or your account, the corresponding deletion process applies.
