## What is hajimete?

hajimete is an app for recording the small "firsts" in your everyday life.

The first place you visited. The first food you tried. The first thing you challenged yourself to do. Our daily lives are full of small "firsts" waiting to be noticed.

hajimete helps you record these experiences simply and beautifully.

What you can do:
- Record first experiences with dates
- Attach photos to entries
- Star your favorite entries
- "Reunion" feature to randomly revisit past entries
- Share an entry as an image
- Export data as CSV
- Dark mode and Light mode
- Japanese and English support

One-time purchase — no additional charges, no subscriptions, no limits on the number of entries.

As your entries grow, your personal book of firsts takes shape.

We made hajimete a simple paid app so that a paywall never interrupts the moment of recording. A small journal app, designed to be kept for the long run.
