When you blow on it, it will catch fire. If you spray it strongly, it will burn greatly. Even if you touch it, it will burn greatly. After a while, it will be in "meditation mode". A shimmering fire. A crackling sound. It's time to flow quietly. The fire will extinguish naturally over time. We all have unpleasant memories and events that we want to erase. They remain in the form of photos in our mobile devices. Let's burn them off. Your mind will be refreshed. When you start the app... 1. Touch or blow on the fire to make it stronger. 2. You will be prompted to select the photo you want to burn. 3. After selecting the photo, swipe it and throw it into the fire. 4. The photos will gradually burn away, and the bad memories will be removed.

CafeLog is a personal, offline diary for the cafés you love. Instead of scrolling through reviews of places you will never visit, you build your own little map of go-to coffee spots. ■ Save a cafe with one photo Snap the interior, the latte or the storefront. The address is suggested from your current location, entirely on-device — nothing is sent anywhere. ■ Tag the vibe Great coffee, great sweets, latte art, cozy, quiet, terrace seats, Wi-Fi, power outlets, long-stay OK, open late — one tap each so you remember what makes a place special. ■ Sort by type Specialty, chain, bakery café, coffee shop (kissaten), dessert café or other. ■ Log every visit Rate your satisfaction on a 5-star scale and note the drink or dessert you had that day. Watch visit-count badges and milestone medals grow as you keep coming back. ■ Your own stats A weekly visit bar chart, a cafe ranking and a monthly calendar — all calculated on your device. ■ Private by design No account, no login, no cloud. Everything stays on your phone. Perfect for coffee lovers, café hoppers, dessert fans and anyone who wants to remember the cafes worth going back to.
