Everything you need to use Remember Me · Updated August 6, 2026
Remember Me stores the everyday facts you can't afford to forget — where you left your keys, your parking spot, a Wi-Fi password — and gives them right back when you ask, by voice or text. This guide walks through every screen and feature.

1. Before you start
Remember Me runs on iPhone. To get the most out of it, have the following ready:
- An iPhone running iOS 17 or later.
- An internet connection — needed to sign in and to compose recall answers. Saving memories and browsing them works offline.
- An email address, or a Google account, to register.
- Face ID or Touch ID (or a device passcode) set up on your iPhone, so the app can lock itself to you.
2. Creating your account
When you first open the app you'll see a welcome screen. Tap Get Started, then either create an account with email or continue with Google.
Sign up with email
- On the sign-in screen, tap Create an account.
- Enter your First name (required), Last name, and Email.
- Choose a Password and re-enter it under Confirm Password. Tap the eye icon to show or hide what you type.
- Tap Sign Up. If the two passwords don't match, or your first name is blank, the app will tell you so you can fix it.
Continue with Google
On the sign-in screen, tap Continue with Google and choose your Google account. This skips the separate email-verification step.
3. Verifying your email
If you signed up with email, Remember Me sends a verification link to your inbox before it lets you in. This confirms the account is yours.
- Open your email and tap the verification link. It can take a few minutes to arrive — check your spam folder if you don't see it.
- Return to the app and tap I've Verified My Email.
- Didn't get it? Tap Resend Verification Email. To use a different account, tap Back to Sign In.
4. Unlocking with Face ID
Remember Me keeps your memories behind your device biometrics. Every time you open the app — and every time you return to it after switching away — it asks for Face ID or Touch ID (falling back to your device passcode). If a phone is lost or borrowed, your memories stay locked.
5. The chat screen
The heart of the app is a simple chat. You talk to your memory the way you'd text a friend. Across the top you'll find:
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| List icon (top left) | Opens the Memories screen to browse everything you've saved. |
| Half-circle icon | Appearance menu — switch between System, Light, and Dark. |
| Bell icon | Opens Reminders to add and manage reminders. |
| Sign Out (top right) | Signs you out and returns to the sign-in screen. |
The first time you open the chat, you'll see a friendly greeting — "Hi! I'm your memory." — with a few tappable examples like "My keys are on the kitchen table" or "Where did I put my passport?" Tap one to drop it straight into the message box and see how it works.
6. Saving a memory
To store something, just state it as a fact in the Type a message… box and send it with the paper-plane button.
- "My passport is in the top drawer of the desk."
- "Parking spot is level 2, B12."
- "The Wi-Fi password is sunflower-42."
Remember Me decides on your device whether you're telling it something (store) or asking something (recall). When you save a fact, it confirms right away — something like "Got it — memory saved. You can recall it anytime." Because that decision happens on-device, the confirmation always matches what was actually stored.
7. Recalling a memory
When you need something back, ask a natural question and send it:
- "Where's my passport?"
- "What level did I park on?"
- "What's the Wi-Fi password?"
You'll briefly see "Thinking…" while the app finds the most relevant facts you've saved and composes a short, warm answer. You don't have to phrase questions exactly the way you saved them — asking about your "travel documents" can still surface the passport you filed away.
8. Using your voice
You can speak instead of type, and have answers read back to you.
- Dictate: Tap the microphone button and start talking. You'll see a "Listening…" indicator; tap the button again (now a stop icon) to finish. Your words appear in the message box, ready to send.
- Spoken replies: Recall answers can be read aloud automatically. To silence the current spoken reply, tap the speaker (mute) button.
The first time you use voice, iOS asks permission for the microphone and speech recognition — tap Allow. See the permissions reference if you need to change this later.
9. Adding photos
Some memories are easier to keep as pictures — a parking level sign, a serial-number label, where you left something. You can attach up to five photos to a memory.
- Tap the camera button to take a new photo (on devices with a camera), or the photo button to pick from your library.
- Selected photos appear as thumbnails above the message box. Tap the small ✕ on a thumbnail to remove it before sending.
- If you send a message that sounds visual, the app may ask "Add Photos?" — choose Yes to attach some, or No, send text only.
10. Editing & deleting a memory from chat
Made a typo, or something changed? Press and hold any of your messages in the chat to bring up a menu:
- Edit — opens an Edit Memory box. Change the text and tap Save; your update syncs to your saved memories.
- Delete — removes that memory.
11. The Memories screen
Tap the list icon at the top left of the chat to see everything you've stored, newest first. Each row shows the fact, its date (and an "edited" mark if you've changed it), and a thumbnail if it has a photo.
- Search: Use the search bar to filter by keyword.
- Open a memory: Tap any row to see the full text, any photos at full size, and when it was created or edited.
- Edit: In a memory's detail view, tap Edit, change the text, and tap Save.
- Add a reminder: Tap Add reminder to turn that memory into a reminder (defaults to tomorrow — adjust as needed).
- Delete: Swipe a row left, or open the memory and tap Delete Memory and confirm.
The whole app is already locked behind Face ID, so this screen doesn't ask you to authenticate again. Tap Done to return to the chat.
12. Reminders & events
Tap the bell icon to open Reminders. You can view them as a Calendar or a List using the toggle at the top.
Create a reminder
- Tap the + button and choose New reminder (or tap a day in the calendar).
- Enter a Title and, optionally, Notes.
- Pick the Date & time of the event.
- Under Notify me before, switch on any presets — 1 week, 1 day, 1 hour, or 15 minutes before.
- Need a different lead time? Under Custom lead time, set a number (1–60) and a unit (minutes, hours, days, or weeks) and tap Add. Remove a custom entry with the minus button.
- Tap Save. You'll get an iPhone notification at each lead time you chose.
The first time you save a reminder, iOS asks permission to send notifications — tap Allow, or you won't receive alerts.
13. Importing calendar events
You can pull events you already have on your iPhone — including Outlook / Exchange accounts you've added in iOS Settings — into Remember Me so they get reminders too.
- In Reminders, tap + and choose Import iPhone & Outlook events.
- Grant Calendar access when asked.
- Upcoming events are imported and reminders are scheduled. Events that have no alarm of their own default to a reminder 1 hour before.
14. Appearance & signing out
Appearance: Tap the half-circle icon in the chat header and choose System (follow your phone), Light, or Dark. Your choice is remembered.
Sign out: Tap Sign Out at the top right of the chat. Your saved memories remain safely stored for the next time you sign in.
15. Permissions reference
Remember Me only asks for a permission when you first use the feature that needs it. You can review or change any of these anytime in the iOS Settings app under Remember Me, or under Privacy & Security.
| Permission | Used for | Needed? |
|---|---|---|
| Face ID / Touch ID | Locking the app to you | Recommended |
| Microphone & Speech | Voice dictation | Only for voice |
| Camera | Taking a photo for a memory | Only for camera |
| Photos | Attaching pictures from your library | Only for photos |
| Notifications | Reminder alerts | For reminders |
| Calendar | Importing and mirroring events | For calendar import |
16. Your privacy
Your memories are encrypted on your device with AES-GCM, using a key held in your device Keychain, and stored in the app's private storage. Only the facts you save are kept; your recall questions and the assistant's replies stay in the current session. When you ask a question, a bounded set of your most relevant recent facts is sent to the AI service to compose the answer. Full details are in the Privacy Policy.
17. Troubleshooting
I didn't get my verification email
Wait a few minutes and check your spam or junk folder. Still nothing? Tap Resend Verification Email on the verification screen, and confirm your address is spelled correctly.
Voice / dictation isn't working
Make sure you're on a real iPhone (not the Simulator) and that Microphone and Speech Recognition are allowed in Settings › Remember Me. Type your memory in the meantime.
I'm not getting reminder notifications
Check that Notifications are enabled for Remember Me in Settings › Notifications, and confirm you switched on at least one lead time when creating the reminder.
Calendar import isn't finding events
Turn on Calendar access in Settings › Privacy & Security › Calendars. Import only pulls upcoming events, so past events won't appear.
Recall says it doesn't know something
Confirm the fact was actually saved (check the Memories screen). Recall needs an internet connection to compose answers — if you're offline, you can still browse your saved memories directly.
A recall answer looks wrong
AI answers can occasionally be off. Open the Memories screen to see the exact fact you saved, and edit it if it needs updating. Don't rely on recall alone for anything safety-critical.
