Memories
A memory in LifeWell is an event with a date, a place, the people who were there, and whatever you wrote and photographed. Create rich memory entries with photos, videos, and written reflections backed up to your Google Drive. Organize memories by date, person, or occasion and revisit them anytime with a beautiful timeline view. The media goes to your own Google Drive, in your account, under storage you control — which is what makes this different from a service that keeps your photographs on its servers and asks you to trust it.

Questions
Do I need a Google account for backup?
Yes. Memories uses Google Drive for media storage. You connect your Google account once, and LifeWell handles backup automatically through a secure token proxy.
How much storage does it use?
Storage depends on the number and size of your photos and videos. Media is stored in your Google Drive, which provides 15 GB free. You can manage storage in your Drive settings.
Can I export my memories?
Since all media is stored in your Google Drive, you always have direct access to your files. Memory metadata can be exported from the settings page.
