|| With Meminto Stories, you can upload photos in advance and let the account owner turn those memories into personal stories later. You can also select several photos at once and use them together to tell one story.

###### Prepare the Account by Uploading Photos

If you are an assistant, family member, or friend helping someone create their memory book, you can get started by uploading their photos to their Meminto account.

1. Log in to the Meminto account you created for the person.
2. Open the Media Library.

3. Upload the photos you want to include in their memory book.
4. Wait for the photos to finish uploading before moving on.

You can upload photos from different stages of their life, such as childhood, family celebrations, holidays, friendships, and special occasions.

###### Hand Over the Account to the Owner

* Once you have uploaded the photos, the account owner can log in and begin creating their own stories.
* They don't have to start by uploading everything themselves. The photos you have already prepared can serve as reminders and inspiration for their memories.
* When they are ready, they can browse the available photos and decide which memories they want to write about.

###### Select One Photo and Tell Its Story

A single photo can bring back a special memory. The account owner can use each photo as a starting point for a new story.

1. Open the Media Library.
2. Browse the uploaded photos.
3. Select a photo they would like to write about.
4. Use the selected photo to start or add to a story, following the available options in the book editor.

* Write about what happened, who was there, where it took place, and why the moment was special.
* They can repeat this process with other photos, creating a separate story for each memory whenever they wish.

For example: A photo from a family holiday might inspire a story about the journey, the people who joined, or a funny moment that everyone still remembers.

###### Select Multiple Photos for One Story

Sometimes, several photos belong to the same memory. Instead of writing a separate story for each one, you can select multiple photos and use them together for a single story.

1. Open the Media Library.
2. Look for the checkboxes next to the photos.
3. Select the checkbox for each photo you want to include.
4. Once you have selected the photos, use the available option to add them to your story.

* Write one story that connects the photos and describes the experience they capture.

For example: If you have five photos from a birthday celebration, you can select all five and write one story about the celebration, the guests, the surprises, and the moments you want to remember.

###### Let the Photos Bring Back Your Memories

You don't have to remember everything at once or write your entire life story in one sitting. Start with one photo, or choose several photos that belong together.

Each picture can help you remember a person, a place, or an experience worth sharing. Over time, these stories will become part of your personal Meminto memory book.
