Simple and effective

This app is exactly what I was looking for - somewhere to jot down thoughts and notes about important people to me.

Looking forward to seeing the coming updates

Useful to use

Useful and convenient app to use.

Response from developer

Hey Hannah, the reason for the account is so we can sync, backup, and restore your notes across all your phones... or if you lose your phone you don't lose all your notes. As for in-app purchases, that gets you some 'power-up' features but Revere is designed to be useful in it's free version. Thanks for taking the time to review. Mark

Useful app to use and be interesting to see if it might manage to be even more effective once the update is completed.

Great app missing another important feature

I go to a lot of conferences which always have a pdf file with the conference program and the list of people who attended the conference. I then have handwritten notes on those pdfs. I would like to be able to upload those pdfs to the app, ideally to the groups. Being able to upload them to people would be second best if it is difficult to incorporate uploading pdfs to groups. (I am annual paid customer and would be willing to pay more with this feature. I don’t plan to renew without this feature as it is much more easier for me to take notes on pdfs.)

Hmmm, this is a really interesting feature. I'm a big handwritten note persChatGPTon and this would be pretty handy. I have plans to add functionality that parses unstructured notes and saves them to Revere; the handwriting recognition might be relatively straightforward to add with some of the new AI models. I'll definitely look into this. However, I'm not sure I'll be able to get to it soon. In the meantime, a trick I use myself is uploading my handwritten notes to ChatGPT or Gemini and asking it to transcribe them, to then copy/paste wherever I need. It does a surprisingly good job, even keeping bullets and other formatting if you ask. Thanks for writing.

No pdf upload possible

I would like to be able to upload pdf files. I go to a lot of conferences and meet many people at the conferences. The conference programs are already in pdf and it is easy to scriblle notes on them, which is what I do. It would be nice to be able to upload those pdfs into the app, alas this is not possible. (I sent an email to the developer to request this feature but that there was no response. I suppose the developer is too busy to acknowledge the receipt.) (I am a paid user and would be willing to pay more for a version that is more user friendly.)

Great App, Few Remarks

Wonderful application. I think it’s very modern layout and it is very useful for me remembering to care for and reach out to family and friends.

A few suggestions:

If there was a way to link family members when you add them into a person. For example. If I were to add my mom as a new person and then under the section family members add in my sister, her daughter. If my sister is already in the database it would be great to have a link through that family member so then I can click on her and it pulls up my sister’s person page.

It would be wonderful to have subgroups. For instance, for my extended family, I could have a group called: Extended Family with a subgroup of cousins, aunts, uncles, etc. This would help navigate faster.

Lastly it would be super neat to have a few more additional categories when adding people. For example I use the note section to write down peoples “favorites” of something. If you have more categories when filling out people like, a section of music or movies and then I could fill in their favorite movie is this or that, that would be wonderful. Another category could be where are they living, where did they grow up, what school do they go to, etc.

Again, great app super helpful. Those are just a few suggestions that I think would be marvelous with the app you currently have.

Thanks.

These are all great suggestions and all but the subgroups are on my list. I’m also releasing a new version built on Apple’s newer systems which will speed up new feature building, so lots happening. Stay tuned and thanks for taking the time to review.

Love this

I am a hairdresser and I use it to remember my colour formulas and things I talked about last with my clients and it makes my life so much easier

So glad to hear Chloe! Mark

Virtuellement c’est plus difficile de se souvenir

J’aimerais avoir une façon de contrôler les note sur la personé donner une vrai chose sur la personne sans que sache nécessairement que ma ou me ment entre pluisiere raison c’est les gens qui se dois d’être tenu à l’écart

I went looking for this, hoping it existed

I needed a ‘Facebook’ in its true essence - a place for me to make notes and record dates in relation to acquaintances and extended family members. A place to note who’s uncle has the three kids with the ex wife and what all their names are. I’m hoping this will prove invaluable.

Thanks for the review. If you're finding this version useful already, you'll be very happy with everything that's coming in the future. ~ Mark

A way to help this app!

I absolutely love using the app revere. It helps me remember conversations and people I recently met. Yet as I input new and old people I know I have run into one issue. When we select how we know the people there could be many more ways like coaches, teachers, business interests and more. As an app developer I understand adding things may be difficult but I truly believe adding these little options could prove very beneficial for the app and your users experiences. Have a blessed day!
