If I owned the pro plus version for as long as I’ve owned another database app, five years - phew, that’s £500! And yes, they charge same for dollars and pounds - that’s a small profit at the expense of Stirling. Shame, this is a decent app but will prove expensive overtime. I wonder what would happen to all my data if I became poorer than I am now and exited the deal. ### 3/5 — Works great on android *2026-03-05, version 1.11.5* But no ability to open encrypted files? Is this yet another limitation of Apple OS? ### 2/5 — Falta português Brasil *2025-12-27, version 1.11.5* Inacreditável um aplicativo desses não ter português do Brasil para iOS quando que para Android ele tem ### 2/5 — If you don’t need to back it up it’s fine *2025-12-05* There is no decent way to back this up. The location of any photos is blocked because it’s buried inside the app and not accessible otherwise. Tried the cloud but it never loaded fully on other devices. Backup and restore doesn’t work for photos. Expect and import doesn’t work for photos. So basically it’s useless if you want to use photos as items in your entries and have them backed up. ### 4/5 — Easy to use *2025-11-11, version 1.11.4* Facile d’utilisation cependant a quand l’application en français? ### 3/5 — Suggested change *2025-11-08* Adding items to a list without having to back out to the main menu would be nice. Overall, I’m happy with this. ### 2/5 — Not bad, not good either… *2025-10-16, version 1.11.3* If you are looking for a basic database for your stamp collection this may be what you’re looking for. But if you need a database for working purposes rhis is way short of the mark. It is impossible to position the fields as you wish, they are always one on top of the other. For working purposes for me at least I should be able to position the fields as I want. But the real problem is that if you create a database with more than 6 or 7 fields the layout of every file goes nuts. On top of that I tried to contact the devs, no answers... ### 3/5 — Issues in iOS 26 *2025-09-19* I really want to continue to use this app, but there’s a bug where I can’t add new selection list items after a the field is already created. The add field window appears then disappears too quickly I’ve been trying out tap forms pro. Personally, I much prefer memento db’s interface, but tap forms pro is working. It also supports iCloud syncing. I would pay for iCloud syncing for the privacy. ### 2/5 — So much potential but keeps crashing *2025-08-03, version 1.11.2* Was super excited to use it but whenever i fill a field, the entry minimises and then i have to start all over again. ### 3/5 — Не сканирует или плохо сканирует штрих-куар коды *2025-07-23, version 1.11.2* На андройдах всё ок. На айФон 15, 16 про мах не сканирует ### 3/5 — LOL screenshots status bar has random times *2025-06-08* It may not seem like a big deal, but this reflects a lack of attention to detail which can of course then be seen in the app as well. ### 4/5 — Background Color for iOS app *2025-04-21* Please let users edit the background color in the settings in order to change the color from black to white so that product images are more cohesive with the backdrop. ### 5/5 — Excelente *2025-03-24, version 1.11.0* Excelente ### 5/5 — I love it *2025-02-09* I absolutely love this app. Helps me with all my organizing needs. It's easy to use it works great. ### 5/5 — My favourite app *2025-02-03* I use Memento for many purposes. Whisky it helps me track and report on which is my favourite distillerys. For coffee it reports which varieties I've yet to try, identifes my favourite roasters, processing methods. It keeps all my cooking recipes. Beers, wines, specialty chocolates The graphs and charts, filters, links between databases, the ability to configure the fields I want, radio buttons, pick lists. Memento is super useful, vital. I use it many times each day. ### 4/5 — Ist OK *2025-01-18, version 1.10.1* Ich fände es toll, wenn die Apple-Version dieselben Funktionen wie die anderen Plattformen bieten könnte und bitte eine bessere Ordnerstruktur. ### 5/5 — ❤️ *2025-01-12* Thankyou its best app ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Toujours pas de français *2025-12-24, version 1.11.5* Il y a beaucoup mieux pour géré ses collection en français et gratuit ( Wano Collector ) vraiment déçu de cette app ### 1/5 — Not Happy *2025-03-11* It is a good database program but it is unfair to change certain features after you have paid for a year of lite. No longer can I add more than one filter or more than one aggregation all of a sudden whereas I have many of both before they suddenly started this. They suddenly call this a free version. It is not! I paid about $35 for a year. Now they want $72 a year. This is unethical. I will not recommend this app to anyone! ### 1/5 — I wasted so many hours building this database *2025-02-12* Now the app crashes on opening and no response to support requests. Time to find a new one. Think twice before YOU invest a lot of time creating and loading your info in this database app. You too may have to redo it elsewhere when it becomes worthless down the road. ### 1/5 — Great App, but Crashes a LOT *2024-10-23* Update - Do NOT do it!! Do not spend time entering all of your information. I have spent hours, and it gets worse every time I open it. It crashes multiple times before I can even open an entry. Save yourself the time investment. Cannot get any support to even answer me. I would absolutely give this app 5 stars if it didn’t crash several times during every use. I’ve updated it, reinstalled it, updated my OS, and tried to contact the developers for help, but have gotten no response. As for functionality, it’s amazing, and I wish I could use it without the constant crashing. ### 1/5 — Crashing *2024-10-07* App keeps crashing on my apple tablet. ### 1/5 — Bug e +bug *2023-06-14, version 1.5.2* Quando si crea un nuovo campo password non appare il campo Website title, va editato successivamente. Inoltre non salva in locale, solo online, il risultato è che se non c'è rete non c'è neanche Memento ### 1/5 — malo *2023-06-13, version 1.5.2* anda pésimo, por lo menos en ios ### 1/5 — Terrible instructions *2023-03-07* After trying this for a few hours and reading the online help, It seems impossible to create any relationships in the app as the icon in the lower right corner indicated in help does not exist. ### 1/5 — Does not support accessibility *2022-08-29, version 1.4.2* Has potential but app seems amateurish like it’s their first go at an iOS app. Does not support Accessibility but maybe they will incorporate later. Also doesn’t work well with signin with Apple ### 1/5 — Volle Preise, halbe Leistung ! *2022-05-03, version 1.2.0* Als langjähriger Nutzer von MemDB auf einem Androiden bin ich schwer enttäuscht. Datenaustausch mit dem Androiden: sehr rustikal bis mager. Funktionalität: bestenfalls die Hälfte. Oberfläche/ GUI: Soll das ein Witz sein ? Layout der Datenfelder (selbst nach Import von Templates): Beta-Status. Handhabung von Bild- und Textreferenzen: in der vorliegenden Form nicht praktikabel und daher nicht zu gebrauchen. Das hätte man besser erstmal fertig gemacht, anstatt so eine unfertige Version zu veröffentlichen. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Works Well *2026-07-04* It works great for my hot wheel collection ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-05-21, version 1.11.7* This is what I was looking for ### 5/5 — Mi aiuta molto *2026-05-13, version 1.11.7* Ottimo per avere tutto a portata di mano ### 5/5 — Took my collection to the next level! *2026-05-10* I’m a big movie collector and my collection in recent years has gotten to the point where I have so many that I forget exactly what all I have. (That’s what happens when you’re near 3000 titles) Too many times I’d pick something up, just bring it home and find that I already owned it on my shelf. Memento helped me log my entire collection into a database that I can easily search and keep track of. Definitely a game changer. Doesn’t glitch, smooth and easy to operate, and not visually cluttered. Definitely a 5 star app, would recommend to any fellow collector! ### 5/5 — Add a section for shade name under the “color” field *2026-04-03, version 1.11.5* Is there a way to implement the “color” field and customize the name of the color instead of the color code? This would really be helpful for databases that want to add the shade name of a cosmetic product or the name of a paint color, the name of colored art supplies, etc ### 5/5 — Great *2026-03-15* Really i like it great app with options 👍🏻👍🏻 ### 5/5 — Clean and smooth *2026-03-08, version 1.11.5* Use this on a daily basis, very smooth and professional ### 5/5 — Sort manually *2025-09-29, version 1.11.2* Please add sort manually to iOS users like android ### 5/5 — Osm app *2025-07-14, version 1.11.2* Use it and you get the impression ### 5/5 — Please add an autocomplete option for tags *2025-05-04* That way users don’t have to retype the same tags over and over again --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
