Introduction to e-books

Turn family memories into a digital book you can share worldwide in minutes — perfect for families spread across distances or anyone wanting immediate access to stories

Updated yesterday

An e-book is a digital version of your Remento project that you can read on various electronic devices. It's an easy way to share your family's stories with loved ones near and far.

Why choose e-books over physical books?

Choose e-books when you want:

  • Instant sharing with family worldwide

  • Multiple copies without extra costs

  • Living document that updates as stories are added

  • Immediate access on all your devices

Choose physical books when you want:

  • Beautiful coffee table keepsakes

  • Traditional gift-giving experience

  • Permanent family heirlooms

Why not both? Many families start with e-books for immediate sharing, then add physical books for special occasions.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between a Remento e-book and a physical book?

The main differences are format (digital vs. print) and price. An e-book is an electronic copy of your book, and Remento's physical books are hardcover, color-printed books that are printed and shipped to our customers. E-books can be updated for free after purchase and downloaded as many times as you would like.

How long does it take to receive my e-book after purchase?

You should receive your e-book via email within a few minutes of completing your purchase.

Can Remento email my family member or friend an e-book?

No, Remento sends your e-book to the person who has a Remento account and is choosing to export and download the e-book. The file we send can then be sent to anyone via email.

Do I need to purchase an e-book for every person I want to give to?

No, you only need to purchase an e-book once for a project, then you, the Storyteller, and collaborators can all have access to create an e-book.
