## What is Namepin?

Wait... who was that again?

Namepin helps you remember the names of people you meet. Type a name, tap Pin them, and where you met is saved for you. Add notes, a photo or a voice note whenever you like, and find them again by the place or any word you remember.

Built for the school gate, the club night and the conference corridor. The new job, the campsite, the festival field and the holiday where everyone's friendly. Anywhere names slip away.

A NAME IS ENOUGH
Type the name and tap Pin them. Namepin saves where and when, once. Everything else can wait.

FILL IN THE REST WHENEVER
Notes build up over time, each one dated. Add a photo, a voice note, tags or a reminder later. If you've pinned someone before, Namepin says so.

TWO PEOPLE, ONE NAME
Know two people with the same name? Add a few words, like "the baker", to tell them apart. Search finds those words too.

FIND THEM BY WHERE, OR ANY WORD
Search names, notes, tags, groups, places and zip codes, even something you only said out loud. Names in any language, with or without accents. Matches glow yellow, so you can see why they matched.

PHONE AND EMAIL, SORTED
Swapped numbers? Pop the number or email address in a note and Namepin spots it. Call, text or email them in a tap, copy it, or save them to your Contacts with the name, number and email already filled in. Namepin never reads your contacts.

STAND WHERE YOU MET
Nearby starts with everyone you met close to where you're standing, nearest first, on a map. Pick real places, like "The Red Lion", not just a street name. Distances show in miles or kilometers, to match your phone.

SAY IT INSTEAD
Voice notes are transcribed on your phone (where your iPhone supports it) and become searchable. Your voice never leaves your phone.

A GENTLE NUDGE
Set a reminder and it opens the right person. Done or Snooze. Repeat yearly for birthdays.

GROUPS AND TAGS
Tags describe a person (gym, work). Groups are the circles they belong to (Year 2 parents, a conference), each with its own page and notes.

BACK UP, RESTORE ON ANY PHONE
One file with everything, photos and voice notes too. Automatic backups run every week and keep the last 3. Add a password if you like, and keep them in a folder you choose, including iCloud Drive. Restore on any iPhone or Android phone. Namepin never uploads your backups.

SHARE A PERSON
Met someone together? Send them to a friend's Namepin by link or QR code, and tick exactly what goes. Their name always goes; photos, voice notes, transcripts and reminders never do. Nothing passes through Namepin. Both phones need Namepin 1.1 or later.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
- Nothing to sign up for. No ads, no ad or analytics SDKs.
- Namepin never uploads anything you pin. There's no Namepin server, so we can't see it either.
- Location is read only when you pin someone, open Nearby or check how far away people are. Never in the background.
- Photos are just for you to look at. No face recognition, ever.
- Nothing is shared unless you share it.
- Back up everything any time. Import or export people as a spreadsheet.
- Delete everything from Settings whenever you want.
Only you can see this.

FREE, WITH EVERY FEATURE
Namepin is free for your first 10 people, with every feature included. Namepin Premium lets you pin as many people as you like, monthly, yearly or with a one-off lifetime purchase. Nothing you've pinned is ever taken away.

Monthly and yearly plans renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel them in your App Store account settings.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.1.1 — 2026-11-08

Fixes and polish.

• Choosing a custom reminder time, or closing the share menu by tapping outside it, no longer stops the app on iPhone.
• Clearer Premium messages for Lifetime owners, declined cards and store trouble.
• Calendars are readable in dark mode.
• Help shows the right Nearby distance when your phone uses feet.

Thanks to everyone who sent feedback. Keep it coming from Settings, Help & Feedback.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-11-02

Our biggest update yet.

• Backup and restore: one file with everything, photos and voice notes too. Restore it on any iPhone or Android phone. Automatic backups are on, and you can add a password or choose your own folder, including iCloud Drive. Namepin never uploads your backups.
• Share a person: send a link or show a QR code, and tick exactly what goes. Their name, where you met, notes, tags and groups can go; photos, voice notes and reminders stay on your phone. They get their own copy, and nothing passes through Namepin.
• Short descriptions: tell apart people with the same name, with a few words like "the baker".
• Miles or kilometres: distances follow your phone, or pick one in Settings, Appearance.
• Nearby now starts with everyone you met near where you are, nearest first.
• Search finds names in any language, with or without accents.
• The location prompt now says exactly when location is read.
• Voice note transcripts no longer repeat a sentence.
• Faster with big libraries: the People list, search and maps keep up with thousands of people.
• Plus fixes for reminders, large text and maps.

Thanks to everyone who sent feedback. Keep it coming from Settings, Help & Feedback.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-10-26

A smaller update with fixes from our first testers.

• Restoring a backup now keeps everyone who shares a name, so two Sams stay two Sams.
• Voice notes ask for the microphone once, with a shortcut to Settings if it's off.
• Deleting someone also clears their reminder from your notifications.
• Messages show clearly, never hidden behind the keyboard or an open sheet.
• Nearby opens around where you are, not zoomed out over the whole map.
• Tidier layouts at the largest text sizes.
• Fixes rare blank screens after changing your phone's text size.
• Reminders never notify for one you've already finished, and a double tap counts once.
• Fixes a check-in reminder that could arrive more than once.
• Premium subscribers can switch to Yearly or Lifetime in Settings, Premium.
• Clearer purchase messages, and a purchase that finishes later unlocks on its own.
• Deleting a group no longer leaves a blank page behind on a person.

Thanks to everyone who sent feedback. Keep it coming from Settings, Send feedback.
