Playable Message Necklaces
Learn how these necklaces play a recording, which audio files you can use, and how to choose between text and a Soundwave engraving.
Can a necklace play a voice message?
Yes. Our playable message necklaces use a concealed NFC chip to link your necklace to a personal recording. Tap the back of the pendant with a compatible phone to hear a voicemail, wedding vows, a child's voice, or another meaningful recording.
Can I use a voicemail?
Yes. You can use a saved voicemail, wedding vows, a memorial recording, a child's voice, a pet sound, or nearly any meaningful audio recording.
Do I need an app to play the recording?
No. Unlock a compatible phone, hold it near the back of the pendant, and tap the link that appears. No separate app is required for playback.
Can I choose text instead of a Soundwave?
Yes. This collection replaces the Soundwave engraving with personalized text while keeping the recording playable through the concealed NFC chip.
What phones are compatible?
Most modern smartphones with NFC support are compatible. See our compatible phones guide for additional information.
What is the difference between a playable message necklace and a Soundwave necklace?
A playable message necklace features personalized text on the front while your recording plays through concealed NFC technology. A playable Soundwave necklace combines that same playback technology with a Soundwave generated directly from your recording. Both preserve meaningful audio, but the front design is different.
Which should I choose: a playable message necklace or a Soundwave necklace?
Choose a playable message necklace if you prefer a clean text-based design. Choose a playable Soundwave necklace if you want the visual pattern from your recording engraved on the front as well as text. Both use concealed NFC technology to play your recording with a compatible phone.
