InkStory is more than just a mobile app – it's a gateway to a new dimension of personal expression. It's not just about preserving memories; it's about feeling them resonate through your very skin.
Hey everyone,
This project started from a really personal place. One evening, I was sitting with my wife and told her I wanted to get a tattoo. Since I’m a total nerd, I wanted something nerdy but meaningful—just didn’t know what.
I do a lot of work in online education (I co-run javascript.info) and spend tons of time with sound and video editing software. So, my wife said, “Why don’t you tattoo a soundwave?” That idea stuck with me. But, being a nerd, I thought, “Why stop there? What if I could actually play back the soundwave?”
Fast forward a bit—I built an app to make it possible. And my first tattoo? It’s the voice of my daughter at 3 years old telling me she loves me. Now, whenever I scan that tattoo, I hear her tiny voice, and it brings back everything about that moment.
I wanted to make it easy for anyone to experience that same connection. With InkStory, you can turn your tattoos into memories that sing, speak, or bring back moments from your life. It’s completely free to install, with generous limits on free usage. You can use Spotify, YouTube, or upload a voice memo or even a family video.
Whether it’s preserving a loved one’s voice, a favorite melody, or a moment that matters most to you, InkStory makes your tattoos more than skin deep—they become alive.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
