For family heirlooms & keepsakes

Some stories are too important to leave untold.

Record the story behind grandpa’s watch, the quilt or the clock on the mantel, and stick it right on the item. Anyone who holds it can scan it and hear the story, for generations.

  • Your story, in your voice
  • No app needed to scan
  • Weatherproof and durable

When the story is lost, the meaning goes with it

“Whose was this?”

A ring in a drawer, and nobody remembers who wore it.

“Who’s supposed to get it?”

Without your wishes written down, family is left guessing.

“I wish I’d asked.”

The stories we meant to hear are the ones we miss most.

A Smack Tag keeps the story, the photos and your wishes with the item itself.

How it works

Smack it. Set it. Scan it.

Set up your first tag in about a minute, right from your phone.
1

Smack it

Stick a tag somewhere discreet: the back, the bottom or inside a lid.
2

Set it

Record a short video of the story and add old photos and notes.
3

Scan it

Family scans it with any phone and hears the story in your voice.

What you can save on a tag

  • The story, in your own voice. Where it came from and why it matters.
  • Photos. The original owner, and the item through the years.
  • History and details. Who made it, when it was bought, appraisal or care notes.
  • Who it’s meant for. Let family know who you’d like to have it someday.

This holiday, give the gift of their stories

Bring a pack to the family gathering and spend an afternoon recording the stories behind the family treasures. It’s the gift your kids will thank you for later.
A Smack Tag is a great way to share your wishes, but it isn’t a substitute for a will or estate plan.
