A Time Machine for Your Heart
Watch your kids grow up again through the magic of random discovery
2003. Your first baby. Your first digital camera. Suddenly you could take unlimited photos without film costs. You documented EVERYTHING. First smile. First steps. First day of school. Every birthday, every holiday, every ordinary Tuesday that felt special.
Now they're teenagers or adults, and those thousands of photos sit on external drives labeled "Kids 2005" and "Family 2008" - when did you last see them?
One click of "Randomize" and suddenly you're looking at your 3-year-old's face next to their high school graduation. The baby who wouldn't sleep is now in college. That toddler meltdown is now hilarious. Every random selection is an emotional journey.
First everything. When you took 50 photos of them sleeping because they were just so perfect. All on that external drive marked "Baby."
School plays, soccer games, birthday parties. Your camera went everywhere. Folders organized by year because that made sense then.
The awkward years, the proud moments, the family vacations. Before they started taking their own photos for Instagram.
Graduations, first apartments, maybe grandkids? Mixed with all those earlier memories on your drives.
That random photo of them at 5 years old in a Superman cape? You forgot that day existed. Now you're crying happy tears.
You always meant to organize those photos. But life happened. Rando doesn't need organization - chaos becomes magic.
Morning coffee + random photos = best start to your day. See what memory surfaces today.
"Remember this?" becomes your favorite phrase. Share random discoveries with your grown kids via text.
Rando works with photos stored on: Mac internal drives, external USB drives, backup drives, network storage. Currently does NOT work with cloud-only photos (iCloud Photos, Google Photos). Your photos from the pre-cloud era are perfect for Rando.
You had kids right when digital cameras became affordable. You were the "official photographer" at every event. You have multiple external drives because you never trusted just one backup. You organized photos by year because that's what made sense. You never got around to uploading everything to the cloud - and honestly, you prefer having control over your memories.
Hit "Slideshow" and watch your kids grow up in random order. Jump from baby to teen to toddler. It's like a time machine controlled by joy instead of chronology.
Select multiple folders from different drives. Mix "Baby Photos" with "High School" with "Family Vacations." Maximum emotional impact.
When a photo makes you cry (happy tears!), tag it. Build a collection of your most precious moments without organizing everything.
Text that random funny photo to your adult kid. "Look what I just found!" becomes your new favorite message to send.
Those external drives won't last forever. Your kids are creating their own families now. These photos are your treasure - the proof of a life well-lived, a family well-loved.
Don't wait for "someday" to organize them. Start enjoying them today, randomly, joyfully, tearfully.
No uploads to anyone's servers. No AI scanning your kids' faces. No social media company owning your memories. Rando works entirely on your Mac with YOUR local drives. Your precious family photos remain 100% private, just like they always have been.
