Unable to add contacts

I am unable to add contacts or contact someone for help. Sounds like a good idea, but waste of money if you cannot add people.

Love it! Some suggestions!

I love this app! I have been using it for about a year and it has really helped me keep up with friends and family.

Suggestions:
• Customizable frequency.
• Different type of catch ups and for same people. There are long distance relationships that I want to see in person at least once a year but I want to remember to reach out to them via text, call every month.

Great, but still needs fine tuning.

I loved this app. It’s simple and organized. I’m glad I can edit notes for conversations/ interactions I’ve had in the past because I often do not mark them down immediately.

Developer please add:

The ability to select more than one person for a note.

Add search function.

Add photos, maybe.

Useless without paying

The free version of this app is basically useless. It only lets you track your catchups with 2 friends, and it won't allow you to turn on reminder notifications to contact these friends unless you upgrade. Unless you want to spend $10 to upgrade, it's not worth downloading.

Nice to remind for social connections

This is a nice app to keep track of connections that might otherwise slip away or for times when you’re forgetful. I wish there were a “remind me on x date” or “snooze next reminder” option. Also would be nice if you could dismiss or record a connection from the notification.

Useful / economical / scarce

Keeping in touch with people is something we’re all trying to do (right?) so why aren’t there more apps supporting this. The first one I came across was Garden - but that seems to now be abandoned, and is unstable. This is a pretty good substitute. Add names (shame you can’t categorize them eg home and work) and the set a frequency to stay in touch at some predetermined interval (shame you can’t customize that, you get the choice of once a week or every two weeks etc). And then you get to click and update when you speak to folks (this app does a nice job of capturing a journal entry - but sadly doesn’t seem to back up to iCloud - so I don’t feel confident about relying on this repository of conversation). It seems stable and the price seems fair. Although it was last updated 11 months ago as of this writing - so hopefully will be maintained? A great idea, a good (but not great) implementation. Still recommended - but wished it did a little more.

Doesn’t sync between devices

This started off being a great app. I used it for several months and felt good about reconnecting with people I didn’t run into naturally.
However, it doesn’t sync across devices. For example, I can download the iPad app, but I can’t see the current list, or updates. I switched to iOS 18 and my tracking information was lost on the update.

I would give it 5 stars if it wasn’t for the sync issue.

Pro version disappeared, but is back

I was enjoying the app and paid for premium but the features locked for a bit. The features are now back. The app is decent for what it is

I like it so far!

Super easy to use, and excited to keep in touch with the people that i love!

suggestion:
• option to add date when we last hung out in person
• option to add frequency of in person hang outs

although i love to check in through the phone, i want to make more of an effort to SEE the people i love more often in person.

Great app however subscription is currently broken and unusable

Great app however the subscription is currently broken and unusable.

Wish I could upgrade??

Initially loved it, but there’s a bug not allowing me to upgrade to plus so I can’t use the app anymore. Total shame, really loved it :(

Entered a lot of contacts and took notes, now the and pictures no longer show

Entered a bunch of data, now the names and pictures no longer show in the app. Not usable if you don’t know who you want to contact.

downloaded, then deleted

i’m sorry :( this app had so much promise but i’m a broke student with adhd who wanted to use this to keep in touch w all my long distance friends, but charging $12.99 for premium is so, so, so steep

offering only 2 free friends in this app is actually pointless… if i only had 2 people to keep in touch with, i’d hope i wouldn’t need an app to remember to reach out

Just the right amount of design

The creator of this app has identified a genuine human need and designed an elegant solution. Just the right amount of functionality and so easy to use. A great way to remind you to keep in touch with those important to you, especially when life gets in the way. Can’t recommend enough.

Hello, I’ve just downloaded the app. Whatever I do I can’t find the option to add my friend’s birthday. Could you tell me how it’s possible?

Whatsapp Integration

Can we have an option to call or text with whatsapp.

Get it

Have literally sent to all of my busy friends.

Love it

Great app, simple but very helpful! Only thing I would add is the option for a reminder to contact people every two or three days, rather than only every day or weekly.

Lovely

Simple and effective.
