My Photo Story

Give every photo a voice. My Photo Story is the simple, joyful way for children to document discoveries and share their stories of learning.

My Photo Story is a simple app designed to put children's voices at the centre of learning.

Created for early childhood and primary settings, My Photo Story lets children - or their educators - pick a photo, record their voice, and export their story as a movie, saved directly to the Photos app. It's the perfect tool for documenting discoveries, sharing learning, and amplifying the voices of even your youngest learners. Older learners (or teachers!) could also use this app to take photos of completed work and add a voice layer explaining their thinking, justifying choices or contemplating future goals or next steps (great for collecting evidence for assessment tasks).

How it works:

• Choose a photo from your library or take one with the camera
• Record your voice to tell the story behind the photo
• Optionally add a personalised name badge or other short form text
• Export as a video saved to your Photos app - ready to share with families, display on a screen, or keep as a record of learning

Perfect for:

• Early childhood and primary educators
• Documenting learning moments and discoveries
• Children's voice and agency projects
• Parent communication and sharing

My Photo Story works beautifully on both iPad and iPhone, with a clean, child-friendly interface that educators and children can navigate with confidence.
