Tallmark

The book of their first years

Every day gets a page.

Take today’s photo and Tallmark stamps it into the book of their first years. Flip the pages into a flipbook, print them as a photo book, send them as cards. All made on your phone.

Noor’s first-birthday page, the last of twelve.

How a page is made

Three steps, every day

You take the photo. Tallmark does the counting, the stamping and the putting in order.

    Page 1
    Line it up

    The see-through page: yesterday’s page shows through the camera. Set today’s photo in the same spot and the flipbook holds still while they grow.

  2. page 24 months

    Page 2
    It’s stamped

    Tallmark stamps the age on the page, the way you’d say it: day 127, or 4 months and 5 days. You never count.

    First smile? Put a sticker on the page. Something to remember? Write a note for the day.

The book

Years, months, days, on one ruler

Every page goes in order, in chapters by month. Drag along the ruler and the pages turn with you.

  • Chapter zero: the bump

    Start before they’re born. Bump pages make the first chapter of the book.

  • A guide for each month

    Page ideas for the first three years, so every month has something new to try.

  • Older photos, too

    Bring in photos from your library. Each one goes on the page for its day.

  • Today on your home screen

    An iPhone widget keeps today’s page on your home screen.

The flipbook

Flip through the year

Turn the whole book, or a single chapter, into a flipbook video. Because every page was lined up, they grow while the room stays put.

Cards to send

A page, ready for the post

Five kinds of card, made on your phone and ready for the family chat. Every card comes in Scrapbook for free, and Tallmark Plus adds seven more styles. Each child keeps their own style, so Noor’s cards always look like Noor’s.

A book to print

Something to hold

With Tallmark Plus, Tallmark lays out a photo book as a PDF: a cover with their name, a chapter for each month, and the pages with their stickers and notes. Print it at home or take it to any print shop.

Milestones and growth

Stickers for the firsts

Firsts go on the page as stickers, so the photo of the day sits next to the first tooth. The growth log keeps weight, height and head size, and draws the chart for you.

Privacy

Nothing ever comes to us.

Backups go only to your own iCloud or Google Drive, and only if you turn them on. No AI, ever.

If you buy Tallmark Plus, Apple or Google and our payment service, RevenueCat, see the purchase. Never your book.

Questions parents ask

Fair questions

More on the support page, including backup and moving phones.

Do I need an account?

No. There’s nothing to sign up for. Open Tallmark, write the name on the cover, and make the first page.

The one sign-in you might see is on Android, if you turn on backup to Google Drive: Google asks once so Tallmark can use its own hidden folder in your Drive. It can’t see anything else there.

Is Tallmark free?

Yes. Keeping the book is free, for as many children as you like: every page, sticker, note and growth entry, reminders, the see-through page, the guide, backup to your own iCloud or Google Drive, and the flipbook video at full quality with no watermark.

Tallmark Plus is optional. It adds every card style beyond Scrapbook, the photo book to print, GIF flipbooks, and more ways to play the flipbook. You can take it yearly (with a week free first), monthly, or pay once for life. The app shows the price in your currency before you choose.

Subscriptions renew until you cancel them in your App Store or Google Play account. If Plus ends, nothing you made is touched: saved cards, videos and books stay yours.

What if I miss a day?

The book carries on. A day without a photo is simply a page you skipped, and the flipbook turns straight past it.

If you took a photo that day with your camera, you can bring it in later and it lands on the right page.

Can I add older photos?

Yes. Choose photos from your library and each one goes on the page for the day it was taken. Started late? The first weeks can still go in the book.

Can two parents use it?

Tallmark runs on iPhone and Android, so the book can live on either parent’s phone. It lives on one phone at a time: there’s no shared online copy, because that would mean your photos coming to us.

To hand the book over, make a backup file on one phone and open it in Tallmark on the other.

How do I move to a new phone?

Same kind of phone: turn on backup to your own iCloud (iPhone) or Google Drive (Android). When Tallmark first opens on the new phone, it offers to bring the book back.

From iPhone to Android, or the other way: in Tallmark, go to Settings, then Backup, and make a backup file. Move the file to the new phone however you like (a cable, AirDrop, a cloud drive, an email to yourself) and open it in Tallmark there.

Can I print the book?

Yes, with Tallmark Plus. Tallmark makes a photo book as a PDF: a cover, a chapter for each month, and the pages with their stickers and notes. Print it at home, or take the file to any print shop.

Is there AI?

No, and there won’t be. The flipbook, the cards and the photo book are all made on your phone. Your photos are never sent to an AI service, or to us.

Is Tallmark on Android?

Yes, on iPhone and Android from the same day, with the same book. The home screen widget is iPhone only for now.

Can I keep a book for each of my children?

Yes, as many as you like. Each child gets their own book, their own colour and their own card style, and you can lay two children side by side at the same age.
