Tsuzuru

Photos, bound into a book

Turn your photos
into a book you can leaf through.

Tsuzuru binds photos and your own words into pages. Not a feed that scrolls past — a book that opens at the cover and turns page by page.

3 steps

Three steps

1

Pick

Choose photos you already have. Three kinds of page: photo only, photo with words, or words alone. Add a few words to make them your own.

2

Write

Your words sit below the photo, never on top of it. Write more and the page gives them more room.

3

Share

Export a vertical video for social. Or send a link — it lands on the reader’s shelf. They will need the Tsuzuru app to read the book.

Read it like a book

The cover opens. Pages turn under your finger, with the weight and the sound of paper. Lean the phone and light runs across the page.

A shelf that fills up

Your books line up on a shelf. Hold to rearrange them, and “Today’s page” starts writing without going through a list.

  • The cover is page one — a photo or words
  • Leave a bookmark and come back
  • Tap a photo to lift it out and look closer
  • Books you receive sit on their own shelf
Read it like a book

Simple pricing

Free to start.

Making, reading and exporting video are free. The one-time purchase widens how much you can publish. No subscription.

Free

¥0

  • Free book creation, reading and video export
  • Three books published at once
  • Published for three months
  • One banner at the bottom of the shelf

Premium

¥1,500 one-time

  • Up to 1,000 books published at once
  • Published for a year
  • No Tsuzuru card at the end of your videos
  • No advertising

Each book holds up to 200 pages including its cover, and up to 60 of them can be published. When a published link expires, the book stays on your phone to read and edit, and publishing it again restores the original URL.

Private by design

What it does not do

  • No feed, no search, no way to browse other people’s books.
  • No account, no sign-up.
  • Nothing leaves your phone unless you tap Publish, one book at a time.
  • A published book is reachable only by its link.

Ads are never personalised and we do not track you across apps or websites. Published pages are images drawn by the app, not your original files, so they carry no location data.

The book begins
the day you take the photo.

Choose the photos. Add a line. That is the whole of it.
