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:

Note: Voice dictation needs a real device — it isn't available in the iOS Simulator. If dictation is unavailable, you can always type instead.

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

  1. On the sign-in screen, tap Create an account.
  2. Enter your First name (required), Last name, and Email.
  3. Choose a Password and re-enter it under Confirm Password. Tap the eye icon to show or hide what you type.
  4. 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.

  1. 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.
  2. Return to the app and tap I've Verified My Email.
  3. 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.

Good to know: The app re-locks automatically whenever it goes to the background, so you never have to remember to lock it yourself.

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:

ControlWhat it does
List icon (top left)Opens the Memories screen to browse everything you've saved.
Half-circle iconAppearance menu — switch between System, Light, and Dark.
Bell iconOpens 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.

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:

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.

Tip: The more specific your saved facts, the sharper the recall. "Spare key is under the blue plant pot by the back door" beats "spare key outside."

8. Using your voice

You can speak instead of type, and have answers read back to you.

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.

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:

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.

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

  1. Tap the + button and choose New reminder (or tap a day in the calendar).
  2. Enter a Title and, optionally, Notes.
  3. Pick the Date & time of the event.
  4. Under Notify me before, switch on any presets — 1 week, 1 day, 1 hour, or 15 minutes before.
  5. 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.
  6. Tap Save. You'll get an iPhone notification at each lead time you chose.
Reminders from memories: A reminder created from a saved memory shows a link icon; a standalone reminder shows a bell. Tap any reminder to edit it later.

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.

  1. In Reminders, tap + and choose Import iPhone & Outlook events.
  2. Grant Calendar access when asked.
  3. Upcoming events are imported and reminders are scheduled. Events that have no alarm of their own default to a reminder 1 hour before.
If import does nothing: Calendar access may be off. Turn it on in Settings › Privacy & Security › Calendars and try again. If there are simply no new upcoming events, the app will tell you.

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.

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.
