Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from parents on holding onto memories while letting go of clutter.
I find it hard to let go of my child's art. How does ArtKeep help?
It's natural to want to hold onto everything! ArtKeep helps by separating the memory from the physical object. By preserving a high-quality digital scan, you keep the 'moment' safe forever. This makes it much easier to recycle the original paper, knowing the memory is preserved perfectly.
Is ArtKeep free to use?
Yes! You can scan, organize, and save unlimited artwork for free. Our core mission is helping you preserve memories. We offer optional premium features like cloud backup for extra convenience, but the basic app is robust and free.
What makes ArtKeep better than just taking photos?
Your camera roll is a mess of screenshots and receipts. ArtKeep is a dedicated sanctuary for art. Plus, our scanning technology fixes lighting, crops edges, and straightens the image so it looks like a high-quality digital scan, not just a snapshot on a table.
Can I share artwork with family who don't have the app?
Yes! You can generate private web links for any album. Send the link to Grandma via text or email, and she can view the beautiful gallery right on her phone or computer. No account or app download required for her.
Is my family's privacy protected?
Completely. Unlike social media, your ArtKeep gallery is private by default. Artwork is stored locally on your device unless you choose our encrypted cloud backup. We never sell your data or show ads.
Can I print the artwork later?
Absolutely. ArtKeep saves high-resolution images. You can export them to print on canvas, mugs, or create beautiful photo books. Many parents make a 'Year in Art' book at the end of each school year.
What about 3D crafts and sculptures?
Those are the hardest to store! Use ArtKeep to take photos of the sculpture from a few angles. You keep the memory of the 3-foot cardboard castle without it taking up half your living room.
Can I organize art for multiple children?
Yes. You can create a profile for each child. The app keeps their timelines separate so you can see each child's individual artistic growth, while still managing everything in one place.
Does ArtKeep work offline?
Yes. You can scan and organize artwork anywhere—no internet connection needed. Perfect for going through a box of old art in the attic or garage.
How do I back up my data?
We recommend enabling our secure cloud backup (premium) or ensuring your phone's standard iCloud backup is on. This ensures that even if you lose your phone, your precious art collection is safe.
