September 1, 2014
Soon you can more easily capture and share the stories of your prized possessions and other things with Thingealogy.
Thingealogy (apparently a portmanteau of “thing” and “genealogy”) is an iOS app that lets you record, save and share the stories behind family heirlooms and other memorable belongings — perhaps in hopes of sparking meaningful conversations about them and of helping in managing assets.
As outlined by its developer, Thingealogy lets you:
- take a photo of a belonging
- record its story with audio and/or text
- save the “thing” to a “collection”
- share your collections (if you want) with friends or family add comments to things with the option of including more photos and active internet links
- assign a QR code to each thing which is saved as a label ready image which can be used to distribute belongings when downsizing or to distribute an estate

The app is going to be available as a free download, with the ability to add up to 10 things for free.
