Will Storage

Store Your Will Securely. Give Your Family Access.

Your will is one of the most important documents you'll ever create. Yet millions of wills are stored in filing cabinets, safe deposit boxes, or solicitor's offices where your family may struggle to find them when the time comes.

After Me stores your will with AES-256 encryption on your device. No cloud. No subscriptions. Your family accesses it via a QR code you give them — no password needed, no account required.

Why Store Your Will Digitally?

Traditional will storage has problems:

  • Solicitor's office: Your family needs to contact them, potentially pay retrieval fees, and may face delays during an already difficult time.
  • Home filing cabinet: Easy to forget where it is, or for it to be misplaced during house moves or decluttering.
  • Safe deposit box: Requires probate and specific authority to access — which can take weeks or months.
  • Cloud storage: Convenient, but most cloud providers can read your files. Do you want your will sitting unencrypted on someone else's server?
