Relato

In development
Relato's mark: two hands rising into a trunk made of a voice waveform, under a canopy of leaves

DD-RLT-003iPhone

One gentle question a week, answered out loud by someone older than you.

You sit with them, the app shows this week's question, and you hand them the phone. They tap once and talk — never press and hold, because tremor and fatigue make held gestures hostile. Silence is treated as sacred: it stops generously late rather than cutting them off. What's kept is the voice, not a transcript of it. The transcript is a helper; the audio is the truth.

Fifty-two questions a year. Not a race against anything — just a habit small enough to keep, that quietly turns into something a family owns. A skipped week simply waits: there is no backlog, no counter, and nothing that tells the storyteller they are behind.
