About

Read full description

Someone you love just mentioned something they'd love. Two weeks later, their birthday's a fortnight away and you can't remember what it was. Crumb is a tiny notebook built for that exact moment. Catch a hint in two seconds - tap a face, type the thing, done. When the birthday, anniversary, or holiday is coming up, Crumb quietly resurfaces every hint you caught for that person, so you're never scrambling for an idea again. HOW IT WORKS • Add the people you want to gift well - family, friends, your partner. • Every time they mention something, catch it as a "crumb" and link it to an occasion. • Days before that occasion, the Home tab bundles their crumbs together with a countdown, so the gift idea is right where you need it. WHY PEOPLE LIKE IT • Two-second capture - no fields, no friction. • Photos on crumbs - save a screenshot of the actual thing they mentioned. • Occasions, not calendars - birthdays and anniversaries roll forward each year without maintenance. • A gentle nudge - one notification a few days out, not a scheduled tyranny. • Everything on your device - no accounts, no cloud sync, no telemetry. Your notes about the people you love never leave your phone. CRUMB PRO (£5.99, one-time) • Attach photos to any crumb. • Import people and birthdays straight from Contacts. • Buy once. No subscription. MADE FOR • The partner who wants birthdays to feel considered, not last-minute. • The sibling who always ends up giving a book token. • The parent, uncle, aunt, friend - anyone who cares about the people in their life and wants to prove it in small, specific ways. Crumb doesn't want to be another app you visit every day. It wants to be there for the two seconds when someone mentions something they'd love - and again for the ten seconds before you shop, months later. The rest of the time, it stays out of your way. Catch the little things. Give thoughtfully.
