TESTIMONIALS:
Thanks so much you have guys have been a great help. I just wanted to say I can’t recommend this enough. My mom loved her book and cried reading the stories
The book is fantastic. I absolutely love, love it!
I received the four books today. THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!!!!!
They are beautiful and it is a REAL book. I flipped through it and you did a fantastic job. It is something I and my children will always treasure.
I have received my books and am very pleased with the way they turned out. Thanks for helping me in this endeavor.
I LOVE IT! Thank you
Oh my gosh – this is SO cool!
I got the book and I love it! My dad will be thrilled.
I received it today!!
It’s absolutely beautiful!!
My book arrived this afternoon. Its beautiful ! Thank you to you and your team for all your work and effort.
Dad really enjoyed the process of both writing and recalling long forgotten memories. Those memories have provided him with hours of conversations with friends and family.
This has been a wonderful exercise for my father. He was recently widowed when he answered his first question and he lacked concentration skills. His writing was rusty and he was frustrated with having to mentally translate all his childhood memories from French to English before writing. It was quite a challenge for him. He now looks forward to the questions and struggles much less with writing cogently. It has helped him in many ways to have this project to work on. Thank you!
Writing one’s autobiography is a very personal yet daunting task. Lifestory pro has demonstrated its ability to exceed this challenge. Their “weekly prompts” allow you to submit your biographical information at your own pace, a time saving feature that is priceless for us everyday people…
I place my manuscript in the personal and competent hands of LifeStory Pro!!

Ratings and Reviews
Won't let me log in.
Every time I try to create a biographer identity, it won't let me log in or sign up. I tried to log in with Facebook, but it won't let me log in. It's like my facebook account is not shown on my cloud settings and I don't know what to do. But I like the app. It's totally amazing. I like making books, especially if I can share books with my friends. Thank you for supporting it, though.
Developer Response ,
Hi, Thank you so much for your review. Please reach out to [email protected]. We can't replicate the issue yet and so maybe we could look at your crash log to figure it out.
Won’t let me add an image, or look at the “Export” upgrade.
*****I’ll be more than happy to change the ⭐️ rating when these issues are resolved, cuz this app has much potential***** I just downloaded the app, and was entering basic info: name and email. I pressed the shopping cart icon, and the upgrade page appeared briefly...just before booting me out of the app. I tried this 3 more times. Same thing. Later on a pop-up appeared asking me to upgrade, but again, the same thing happened; the page appeared briefly, then booted me out. I moved on to choosing the title of my book, then a cover image. I selected an image from my gallery. It appeared before immediately going away, although not booting me out of the app. I tried a couple more times. Same thing. There was no reason given, the image simply went away. Also, this app will not let me create a biographer identity. I’ve signed up THREE times, and as of this writing, I STILL have not received an email confirming my identity. The upgrade is one I’m willing to pay for, but only if this type of issue is resolved. With problems such as this, I’ll forfeit this app, and move on to something reliable. I would NOT want to run into a serious risk, such as my info not uploading to the cloud, or worse, losing my info altogether.
Please try 3.1.2...think it's fixed. Thanks.
I have bought this twice. Liked the app and spent literally hundreds of hours. Lost everything once but after hours of work, repurchased and restored word for word from a printed 83 page hard copy. Today, the app just went away! No longer on my IPad. Everything gone! Thanks for nothing. Keep the money, get my documents back! Trying again! Are there limits each month on number of chapters I the free version. I really loved this app at one time and recommended it. Now it’s not good. No instructions or function tips on use! Help me get you back! No response from your web site!
Seems very strange, since apps can't delete themselves. Hopefully your iPad was backed up to iTunes or the Cloud and your work is saved. The new version has a cloud backup feature to protect your work which we take very seriously.

Best Memoir Writing App: 8 Top Options
Discover the best memoir writing apps that will save you time writing a non-fiction story, which readers love.
Writing a memoir is a fun experience. It’s a great way of exploring non-fiction. You can use a basic word processor, like Microsoft Word or Google Docs, to write a memoir just fine. However, a dedicated app can save you a lot of time. It’ll help you arrange and plan your non-fiction story and also prepare a draft for self-publishing.
Some apps can also help with the editing process. While writing my memoir, I tried and tested some of the best apps available. If you need help, remember to check out our guide, How to Write a Memoir .
1. Scrivener
2. grammarly, 3. prowritingaid, 4. ulysses, 5. autocrit, 6. ia writer, 7. evernote, why you can trust us, our testing criteria.
Top 8 Memoir Writing Apps
Pricing: From $49 per month
Scrivener is one of the best memoir-writing apps available because it excels at long-form writing. You can use it to plan, arrange and write your memoir using virtual index cards, files and folders. You can also use this app to format a memoir before self-publishing.
The program works for Mac and Windows. There is also an iOS version. Unfortunately, collaboration options are limited, so if you want to write with others, you are out of luck. The learning curve may put off memoirists who prefer old-school apps like Microsoft Word. For more, read our Scrivener review .
Scrivener is our go-to app for long-form writing projects. It's popular with best-selling novelists, screenwriters, non-fiction writers, students, academics, lawyers, journalists, translators and more.
Pricing: Free trial available, then $29.99 per month
One useful app is Grammarly . This program automatically detects typos, spelling issues, and grammatical problems. It comes with a free version that acts as a powerful spell-check tool. However, if you are willing to pay for the premium options, you can use plagiarism tools, stylistic suggestions, a citation manager and in-depth writing analytics.
It’s not a dedicated app for writing a memoir, but you can use it to edit your early drafts before sending them to an editor. I love its ability to revise sentences at a click and it saved me hours of editing time on my last non-fiction book. You can add custom words and names to its dictionary too. For more, read our Grammarly review .
We tested dozens of grammar checkers, and Grammarly is the best tool on the market today. It'll help you write and edit your work much faster. Grammarly provides a powerful AI writing assistant and plagiarism checker.

Pricing: From $79
Another program to consider is ProWritingAid . Again, it’s more for grammar checking your memoir chapters for errors rather than writing and planning. It can also act as a writing coach, helping you avoid mistakes such as passive voice, errors and parallelism, and stylistic concerns. It’s somewhat cheaper than Grammarly and works with Scrivener files. It contains more reports than its competitor. For more, read our ProwritingAid review .
ProWritingAid is a powerful, accurate grammar checker and style editor. It's suitable for non-fiction and fiction writers and doesn't require a monthly subscription. Save 20% per month or year.
Pricing: From $5.99 per month
Ulysses is a good writing program if you want to manage multiple writing projects from one place or you like Markdown. It supports Markdown and excels at managing long-form writing projects, including a memoir. It’s designed for Mac Os and iOS. It automatically syncs your memoir drafts to iCloud, so it works great with other Apple products. However, no windows version is available. For more, read our Ulysses review .
Pricing: From free to $30 per month
AutoCrit is a writing app for fiction that will help you handle word choice and phrasing issues. However, you can also use it for memoir writing. It comes with a spell and grammar checker. It also includes repeatability analysis similar to Hemingway.
When this program exports your document in Microsoft Word, it doesn’t always place your content smoothly. Some lines might have awkward spacing between them, so you might need to do some extra formatting. That being said, I can help you improve your fiction writing. For more, read our Autocrit review .
Pricing: From $29.99 per month
If you are looking for a minimalistic memoir writing app, then iA Writer is for you. This minimalist program eliminates distractions so that you can focus on your writing process. With a short learning curve, it doesn’t take long to master this program.
Looking for more? Check out these memoir writing prompts .
It doesn’t feature many of the customizable options that some other memoir apps have. However, it is perfect for distraction-free writing. For more, read our IA writer review .
Price: Free with in-app purchase options
You’re not going to write a memoir with Evernote but it’s a useful writing app for capturing notes and ideas. You can sync them across all of your devices. Then, when it’s time to write a memoir, simply fire up Evernote, read through your notes and begin writing.
Price: From $2.92 per month
Day One is a popular journaling app developed by Bloom Built. It’s available on Android, macOS, and iOS devices. It sets itself apart from other apps as it’s designed to encourage you to create journal entries. It’ll provide prompts and even surface old entries via its “On this day” feature. All of these tools are useful for turning entries into a memoir. For more, read our Day One app review .
Currently, I use Ulysses and Day One the most for this type of writing. If you’re on Windows, try IA Writer and Scrivener. Or simply use Google Docs or Word. These are a few of the best options available for memoir writing software. Compare the benefits and drawbacks to your specific needs. Then, select the best option for you. These programs can help you organize your thoughts and efficiently translate your life story into written words. Want more? Read our guide How to Write a Book and our roundup of the best writing apps .
I’ve written and published dozens of articles for newspapers, magazines and online publications, including, Forbes and Lifehacker. I’m also a best-selling non-fiction author, a trained journalist and a copywriter. I also wrote a memoir about parenting using some of these tools.
We regularly update this roundup as new products are released. We test memoir writing software by checking book chapters and personal essays. These articles and other writing samples range from several hundred to several thousand words.
