ChronoBoxesLast updated: September 20, 2026.
ChronoBoxes is currently free to use. There is no subscription or required checkout. A normal ChronoBox may include a message, opening date, optional gates, up to six images and one supported video within the published file-size limits.
A normal ChronoBox can be scheduled to open no later than 6 months from creation. From the opening date, server-stored content may remain available for up to 90 additional days and may then be deleted automatically. The creator can delete it earlier through the private management link.
For normal boxes without uploaded media, content may be encrypted in the browser and embedded in the private link. ChronoBoxes does not store that message content. A lightweight server-side control record may be created so the creator can revoke the shared link later using the private management link. If the complete content link is lost or altered, ChronoBoxes cannot recover the message.
Users may optionally support the project through the external ChronoBoxes page on Ko-fi. A tip is voluntary and does not purchase, unlock, prioritize or extend any ChronoBox feature, storage period or service level.
ChronoBoxes may show optional, clearly identified links to third-party products or services that may complement a surprise. ChronoBoxes may earn a commission on qualifying purchases made after following such a link, without increasing the price charged by the third party. These recommendations are optional, do not affect the ability to create or open a ChronoBox, and purchases are made directly with the third-party provider under its own terms.
The creator confirms that they may use and share the text, images and videos included. Unlawful, defamatory, threatening, privacy-infringing, intellectual-property-infringing content and malicious files are prohibited.
ChronoBoxes is not permanent cloud storage. Keep independent backups of important media. The service may be affected by hosting, connectivity, browser compatibility, maintenance or third-party failures.
ChronoBoxes may change limits or features prospectively. Changes do not remove rights that mandatory law grants to users.
