You always mean to remember. That your friend can't stand coriander. That your sister has wanted to see the northern lights since she was nine. That the little place by the market was the best meal of the whole trip. Keeps is a notebook for exactly those things. WRITE IT HOWEVER YOU'D SAY IT One sentence is enough. "Dad loves grilled fish, hates surprises, and wants to see the new museum." Keeps reads that and sorts it into what he loves, what he avoids, and what he'd like to try, then shows you the result before anything is kept. Nothing is saved until you say so, and your own words are kept exactly as you wrote them. Would rather talk? Tell it out loud instead. Nothing appears on screen while you speak, so you can finish your thought without watching words rewrite themselves. They arrive, whole, when you stop. THE PEOPLE Everyone gets a page: what they love, what they avoid, what would make a good gift, and the small promises you made. Add someone by choosing them from your contacts: their name, photo and a few details come across once, and nothing else is read. Keep the little facts too: where they live, what they do, their sizes, how you met, and anything else worth knowing, like a pet's name or a coffee order. Your closest people stay at the top. THE DAYS THAT MATTER Birthdays, anniversaries, the day you met, or a day you name yourself, like your first date. Each one can nudge you ahead of time, along with the gift ideas you saved. They all gather under Coming up, so the gift idea you had in March is still waiting in November. Once you give it, mark it as given. THE PLACES A destination holds everything you found there (the restaurant, the beach, the shop you'd go back to) across every visit. Two trips to the same city are two different things, so each trip keeps its own people and its own story. See one visit at a time, or all of it at once. Any place opens in the map app you use. You can hand a whole destination to a friend as a file. Your own notes are yours to include or leave out. WHERE IT ALL LIVES On your phone, and in your own iCloud so you don't lose it along with the phone. You can turn that off in Settings. No account to make, no ads, and your notes are read and sorted on the device. IN YOUR LANGUAGE English, Turkish, Spanish, German, French and Portuguese, switchable inside the app.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Keeps at none against Days Countdown's 1. Keeps also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 15 months). Days Countdown's advantage is ratings volume (69 vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.
