About this app

Lifelines is a history timeline maker: build, zoom and print timelines of the people who made history.

Lifelines tells history through the people who made it. Each person has a portrait, dates and a place on a timeline you explore with a finger: see at a glance who lived when, who was alive at the same time as whom, and what happened in their lifetime.

• A living timeline: zoom from millennia down to a single year; major figures stay in view, others appear as you get closer.
• Clear sheets: portrait, dates, context, works and sources for every person, event or period.
• Your own timelines: your family, a class, a project. Add people, photos and tags.
• Play to remember: "Place it" on the timeline, "Put in order", "Before or after?". One round a day, your progress and your mistakes to review.
• Print it big: a poster to glue page by page, or a PDF to zoom on a tablet.
• Share: a link to show a timeline in class, on a TV or a projector.
• Offline: take your timelines without a connection.
• Ten colours and a dark mode.

Free with "World History" and 3 timelines of your own. Ready-made, sourced packs (Kings of France, Antiquity, World Wars, Scientists, Explorers…) and the Pro subscription (every pack, photos and videos, 5 GB) are optional.
