Message Style (after activation)
Messages will never repeat and will feel personal — not automated.
Disclosure to recipient
Most families prefer recipients feel the warmth of the message, not focus on the mechanism.
How long should wishes continue?
Options
Include a personal memory each year
Reference something special from your relationship history.
Acknowledge I'm gone (when appropriate)
Over time, a gentle "though I'm no longer here…" can bring comfort.
Pair with a flower delivery
Continue sending flowers from the Flowers & Gifts setup.
How it sounds — Example
A birthday wish to your granddaughter Sophie on her 10th birthday, 5 years after activation:
Happy Birthday, my darling Sophie! 🎂 You're 10 today — I hope you're growing into the wonderful, curious girl I always knew you would be. Grandad is thinking of you so much. Enjoy every single moment. All my love, always. Grandad Rob xx

A birthday card that never stops coming

The people who love you will never stop celebrating their birthday without hearing from you. A simple message. But it means the world.

LAYER 3 · FEATURE 1

Ongoing Birthday Wishes

✓ Unique message generated for each person, every year
✓ In your voice — trained on your Layer 1 writing samples
✓ Only activates after your Trusted Executor confirms
✓ Flowers can continue to be sent alongside messages
✓ You choose how long it continues

🕊️ How Legacy Mode Activates

  1. You designate a Trusted Executor in your account settings
  2. When the time comes, they log in and confirm activation
  3. VertualMe switches to legacy mode — all Layer 3 features begin
  4. Nothing changes until that activation happens

💡 Tips

  • Add personal notes per contact ("She loves being called Nan, not Margaret") so legacy messages stay true to the relationship.
  • Pre-write special wishes for key ages (e.g. grandchild's 18th, 21st) in Best of Me Stories.
  • Review your contact list regularly — add new people as relationships grow.

👉 Next legacy feature:

Schedule messages for future milestones — a grandchild's 18th birthday, a son's wedding, or a note for 10 years from now.
