📖 The Family Scrapbook

4 min read · Updated 2026-05-12

What the scrapbook is

The Family Scrapbook is a little book you can flip through — a page (a “spread”) for each family member, plus an Everyone page for the family as a whole. It doesn’t ask you to do anything new: it’s simply the lovely way to look back at the favourites, sayings, big moments, and notes you’ve already added to your beans. Think of it as the photo album on the shelf — except it fills itself in as you go.

Opening the scrapbook

In the sidebar, open The Pod 🌱 → Family Scrapbook.

Flipping through it

There’s a spine down the side with everyone’s names. Tap a name to flip to that bean’s page, or tap Everyone for the family page — the pages turn with a little animation, just like a real book. On a phone, the spine and page-turns work the same way; you’ll just see one page at a time.

What’s on each page

  • A bean’s page shows Things they say (their sayings), Favorites, Big moments (their milestones), and About them (notes). Each section has a see all → that hops to the matching tab on their profile
  • The Everyone page gathers the family’s shared moments and what’s been added across the pod lately

Adding to the scrapbook

1

Tap Add to scrapbook at the top of the page

2

Pick what you want to add — a saying, a favourite, a note, or a milestone

3

Fill in the quick form and save — it lands on the right page automatically

ℹ️ It’s a view, not a store

The scrapbook doesn’t have its own separate “stuff” — everything in it lives on your beans’ profiles (and in Family Milestones). To edit or delete an entry, open it from there — or tap the see all → link in the scrapbook to get straight to it. The scrapbook just reflects what’s there.

💡 Empty pages aren’t a bug

A page looking a bit bare just means there’s nothing on that bean’s profile yet — add a saying or a favourite and it’ll appear. Every family member gets a page, pet beans included.

  • Meet the Beans — fill in a bean’s profile
  • Family Milestones — the firsts and the big moments
  • Adding Photos — pictures across the Pod
