❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How many memories can fit in one book?
Unlimited, but sweet spot is 50-200 memories. Fewer than 50 feels thin, more than 200 gets unwieldy. We can split into volumes.
Can I edit memories just for the book without changing the digital version?
Yes! The book is a snapshot. Edit the book version without affecting your live Firefly Grove memories.
What if I have video or audio memories?
Videos become photo stills with captions. Audio gets transcribed to text. QR codes can link to online versions.
How long does printing take?
2-3 weeks for standard printing. Rush service available (1 week) for extra cost. Proof review adds a few days.
Can I order more copies later?
Yes, but re-printing is more expensive than ordering multiple copies initially. Order extras for siblings/cousins upfront.
