Meet someone once, forget their name five minutes later? Hey, Buddy fixes that. Add a photo and a name for anyone you need to remember — a client, a teammate, a student, someone from Tuesday's game. Tag them however makes sense to you: by team, by event, by company, whatever. Then quiz yourself. Hey, Buddy shows you a face and asks you to pick the right name from a few options, pulled from the same group you're studying — so it's real practice, not trivia. Get it wrong, and that face comes back around sooner. Get it right, and it fades further out. No settings to tune, no algorithm to fight — just a simple rhythm that keeps the names you're shaky on in front of you and lets the ones you know stay out of the way. BUILT FOR THE MOMENT BEFORE YOU WALK IN Set a reminder on any tagged group — a client dinner, a conference, a weekly game — and Hey, Buddy nudges you two hours ahead: "want to run through the faces?" Tap it, and you're straight into a drill on exactly the people you're about to see. HOW IT WORKS • Add people fast — snap a photo or pull one from your library, type a name, add a tag or two • Drill a single tag or mix several together • Multiple-choice quiz with instant right/wrong feedback and a reveal of their name and tags • Wrong answers resurface soon; right answers get pushed further out • A quick stats view shows what you've actually got locked in per group PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything lives on your device and syncs only through your own private iCloud — no server, no account to create, no ads, nothing shared with anyone. Your roster is yours. Whether you're prepping for a trade show floor, learning a new team roster, or just tired of the awkward "sorry, remind me your name again" — Hey, Buddy is built to make faces and names stick.
