What Is a Digital Time Capsule?
A digital time capsule stores voice notes, photos, and written memories online until a future unlock date. With Reanimation Lab you can share by private link or printable QR code, schedule reveal emails, and keep it forever with a single $4.99 upgrade.
How an Online Time Capsule Works
Create your capsule, upload photos, record a voice message, and pick when it should unlock. We seal the message to your future self, email your recipients on reveal day, and keep everything private by default. You can update the content or change the unlock date anytime before it opens.
- Share instantly with a secure link or printable QR for greeting cards.
- Schedule future birthday messages, memorial tributes, or first-day-of-school pep talks.
- Start free for 14 days, then upgrade once to keep the capsule available forever.
Digital Time Capsule Ideas
Digital time capsules fit every milestone. Try a voice + photo time capsule for a wedding anniversary, a graduation highlight reel, or a safe private time capsule for kids who are not on social media. You can even schedule a message for the future to celebrate a baby’s first year or a memorial tribute page.
