iWill?

There is now an app for your iphone/ipod/ipad that will allow you to write your own Will.

The "Auto Will" app, available from iTunes for $7.99 Cdn., purports to produce a basic Will that is valid in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.  AutoWill Users fill in information into a form relating to the date of the will, executors, witnesses, specific and residual gifts (with options for conditions on the gifts, such as age), and funeral wishes.  The app then builds a Will that can be emailed to a PC for printing. Users can rewrite their Will as often as they wish. They can also use the app to prepare multiple documents, "maybe for family or friends". The app also produces a letter to all executors, and an information sheet for executors setting out the names and contact information for your lawyer, accountant, doctors, banks and the location of your Will.

According to the iTunes app store page, the app "does not fulfill the purpose of legal or financial advice, but offers the functionality for you to input details that will generate a Last Will and Testament. The writers of this app recommend that your will is approved by your solicitor for suitability and accuracy and amended if necessary."

Coming soon: iChallenge: an app for challenging iWills.

Have a great weekend.
