Hey Mommy Bears,
I have been exploring the Qeepsake App for you in recent posts, and this is another one for the series. In this article, we will discuss what Qeepsake is, how much it will cost you, and what you get with each Qeepsake Membership Plan.
What is Qeepsake?
Qeepsake is a digital journal that you can fill out by answering questions texted to you daily, weekly, or at other time intervals of your choosing. Your text answers are stored in the Qeepsake App, where you can edit the answers at any time and look back and enjoy your digital journal from anywhere. You can also pay for a physical book to be printed at a later time. Your Qeepsake Book will be automatically created and formatted every time you add a new entry through text or the app. You can preview and make edits to your book and print any date range of the journal you’d like.
Some examples of questions are, “What was the best part of your day with Little Cub?” (We call our kiddo Little Cub on the internet — your child’s name would be there!) Here’s another example, “What does Little Cub do when she sees you?” Qeepsake has thousands of questions. There are some that repeat with the idea that our kids change so much all the time, or answers could vary by day. I do know they’re adding more and more questions all the time, so that will likely lead to fewer repeats.
So How Much DOES Qeepsake Cost?
*PRICING AND PLANS ARE ACCURATE AS OF 8/2021
There are 3 different Qeepsake Memberships, ranging from free to $7.99 per month. I will discuss each Qeepsake plan and what you get in that plan below. Paid plans are charged annually.
Qeepsake Lite is Free!
- With Lite, you get one question per week with a restricted arrival time of questions.
- Add 5 photos into the app per month, no ability to text in photos.
- 20 spontaneous entries in the app per month, no ability to text in spontaneous entries.
- Limited access to milestones (includes a complete list of pregnancy, baby, NICU and adoption milestones). But the best milestones in the other categories — parenting, childhood, school, etc. are exclusive to paid members.
Lite is really like a test drive to see if you want to keep your memories in this way. Once you decide Qeepsake is right for you, I’d recommend upgrading to one of the paid plans to get the best possible experience.
Qeepsake Plus costs $3.99 per month.
- With Plus, you can receive up to two questions per day texted to your phone.
- Order a physical book anytime you want.
- Text in up to 200 spontaneous journal entries and 50 photos per month.
- Add unlimited entries and photos in the app.
- Answer previous questions.
- Backdate journal entries.
- Skip questions over text by replying “skip,” and add a spontaneous entry instead.
- Access to ALL milestones.
- Sync your social accounts (this feature has us goo goo ga ga!). Once you sync your accounts, you can automatically add your posts on Instagram and Facebook to your Qeepsake journal.
- Sign friends and family up to receive a weekly recap email.
Plus is for those on a budget who aren’t looking for a fuller friends and family experience, and for those who don’t anticipate wanting to text lots of photos.
Qeepsake Premium costs $7.99 per month.
- Everything that comes with Plus.
- Text in up to 500 spontaneous journal entries and 100 photos per month.
- Add unlimited entries and photos in the app.
- Up to 4 questions per day (but trust us, that’s more than you’ll ever need and you can always choose to have less sent to you daily!)
- Add your spouse, partner, grandparent, sister, friend, or even a nanny or other caretaker to contribute to your journal! You can even customize who can contribute to which of your journals!
Premium is for those who value a fuller memory and milestone saving experience with the ability to text in more photos and receive more questions…and is the best choice for those who want to share the experience with partners, family, and friends digitally!
Get upgraded for free!
If you are a plugged-in person with a social following, you can refer friends to Qeepsake with a customized sign-up link. Lite members who refer 3 friends who sign up get a free year of Qeepsake Plus! Paid members get a $30 book voucher — that’s a free softcover book!

Have You Tried Qeepsake?
If you are already using Qeepsake, sound off in the comments below! I would love to hear about your experience, and what advice you can give to others looking to use the product!
I am currently using the Queepsake mobile app and I have enjoyed it so far❤❤.
Qeepsake really makes it easy to record daily, right! I know it’s harder to keep the physical baby book up-to-date!
Is there an additional cost to get the book printed?
Yes there is. I talk about the cost of the book here: https://mommybear.org/qeepsake-book-cost/
Is there anyway to buy this for someone as a baby gift?
You sure can! They have a gift option when buying the plan.

Hope this helps!
Does anyone have an example of what the printed book looks like?
When the questions are listed as “one per day”, does that mean one question per child per day?
Does each child require their own subscription or does one subscription cover all children?
This is a gift for my daughter having her second child. Can I pay/subcribe for Queepsake and allow her all of the access to make up the book for baby #2? And can I also get a book in behind made for baby #1 by her mom? And a book going forward for both children? How do I do this. ? Very very interested
I normally don’t do product reviews but I had an amazing customer service experience yesterday with Qeepsake that I thought I’d chime in.
I got the app to document my first child’s (a girl!) first year. I’m bad at writing things down so the text method was ideal for me. But fast forward, after the first year, I stopped. I got my book, really high quality. I forgot to cancel my account and was charged for another year, my fault. I emailed the company and asked to cancel my account. I did not ask for a refund because it was my mistake. The next day they responded, canceling my account, and they refunded me! Unprompted and Unasked for!
Super impressed.
I used queen sake lite for a year. I enjoyed making entries and could post a picture along with the entry. My intention was to order a book at the end of every year. After the year I went to do so and discovered I couldn’t even pay for a book without upgrading my membership. I was very disappointed and felt like I had wasted so much time. Paying for a membership and the additional $40 at least for the book is just too expensive in my opinion. I will be deleting the app.
I did not like it, the texts would not transcribe to the journal correctly. It would cut my entries off so there was no point t in using the text entry option. I d/c the app early and thought o did the membership but I was charged again the next year. So frustrating
