Ink Deeper Than Your Skin
The meaning of a tattoo rarely fits into its shape. Keep the rest of it with you.
Tattoos have always carried what we can’t say out loud — a person, a moment, a feeling we couldn’t explain even if we tried. But memory thins. Faces blur. The way something felt gets harder to find every year. InkStory exists because the tattoo shouldn’t be the only thing that lasts. The piece of the memory you’re afraid to lose — the part only you know is there — can live inside it. Quiet, private, yours for as long as the tattoo is.

How does it work?
Take a photo of your tattoo in the app, then attach a sound — a voice memo, a song, a video, whatever fits. The photo and the sound are saved on your phone. Point your camera at the tattoo and it plays.
What does it cost?
$6.99 once. No subscription. Free to try first.
Can I use it with existing tattoos?
Yes. Any tattoo works, new or decades old. Snap a photo, link the sound, done. No special ink, no special studio.
How many tattoos can I have?
No limit. Link as many as you’ve got. Each one carries its own thing.
What media formats are supported?
Audio files, Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and video files. More coming.
Does it work offline?
Yes. The image and the sound both live on your phone, so scanning works with no signal.
Where does my data live?
On your phone. Photos and linked sounds stay on the device that linked them — we don’t upload them anywhere.
