Everkeep vs Tinybeans: the key differences
We can only speak for Everkeep. For Tinybeans’ current features, plans and prices, check its own site; here is where Everkeep stands on the things worth comparing.
| What to compare | Everkeep |
|---|---|
| Where memories live | On your phone. No account and no social feed. |
| Price | Keeping pages is free and stays free. Everkeep Pro is $9.99 once. |
| Family viewing | No shared feed. You share single pages through your own messaging apps, or send the printed PDF. |
| Ads | None. |
| Voice | Voice notes are pages of their own, and can be written out as text on your phone. |
| Keepsake | A printed book as a PDF you print anywhere, and month films (Everkeep Pro). |
| Offline | Works offline. |
| Your data | Save a backup file whenever you like and keep it wherever you trust. |
The honest trade-off: a shared family album is a sharing product, and Everkeep is a keeping product. If your priority is a live feed for a large family group, Everkeep does not do that. If your priority is that your child’s memories stay on your phone and cost a fixed amount, Everkeep is built for that.
