Minoa
Your child's story — a zoomable timeline that never forgets
Minoa is a private digital journal for your child's story. Add photos, videos, milestones and notes. They instantly appear on an interactive timeline you can zoom from birth to today, like Google Maps, but in time. Share with grandparents via a single link. No account needed on their end. No ads, no data selling, servers in Europe. Free to start. Yours forever.
I'm Kévin, solo developer from France and dad of 2 kids.
I built Minoa because I had a problem I couldn't solve with any existing app.
My daughter turned 2, and I wanted to look back at her first year, her first steps, first words, first everything.
Photos scattered across Google Photos, voice notes on my phone, milestones on paper notes I'd lost.
No way to see it all at once.
No story.
Every app I found was either full of ads, stored data on US servers, or was just a photo gallery with no sense of time.
So I built the timeline I wanted.
What makes Minoa different:
→ Interactive zoomable timeline — zoom from years down to a single day. Drag, compress empty periods, see milestones in gold. It's the part I'm most proud of.
→ Privacy-first, Europe only — zero ads, zero tracking, zero data selling. Built after one too many stories about kids'-photo apps getting breached or sold.
→ Share with one link — grandparents see the timeline without creating an account. One link. That's it.
→ Everything on the free plan — photos, videos, audio. Storage-limited, not feature-limited.
Finally tried this with my daughter's photos and the zoomable timeline is so satisfying, way better than scrolling through a messy camera roll. Love that grandparents can peek without signing up for anything.
How does the free tier actually work long term, do the photos and videos stay accessible forever or is there a storage cap that eventually pushes you into a paid plan?
The zoomable timeline feels surprisingly intuitive, almost like scrolling through a little personal archive of moments. Grandparents will love being able to drop in without signing up for anything.
Curious about the free tier here. Can you keep adding entries once a kid is older and the library gets huge, or does free only cover a certain number of photos and milestones before you have to pay?
The zoomable timeline is genuinely fun to scroll through, way more engaging than a regular photo album. Also love that grandparents can just open a link without signing up for anything.

I'd love your feedback — especially on the timeline. Does a zoomable timeline feel like the right way to hold a child's story?
Thank you for being here. — Kévin
