Nestkeep is the simple memory for your home. It does two things, and does them well: it reminds you about the things a home needs before they slip your mind, and it keeps your receipts, warranties and manuals in one safe place. No setup, no accounts, no clutter. Add something only when you want to. REMINDERS - Add anything a home needs on a repeat: water filter changes, smoke alarm batteries, gutter cleaning, insurance renewals, servicing. - Choose how often in days, weeks, months or years. It starts today and repeats until you delete it. - See at a glance what is due, due soon, or overdue. - Swipe to mark done or snooze a week. When you complete one, the next is scheduled automatically. - A gentle reminder arrives at 9am on the day something is due. STORAGE - Keep receipts, warranties, product labels and manuals so you never lose them. - Add a name, a note and up to 10 photos per item, straight from your camera or library. - Search by title or notes to find anything in seconds. - Export a photo back to your Photos whenever you need it. PRIVATE BY DESIGN - No sign up, no account, no ads. - Everything stays on your phone and is included in your normal iCloud device backup. - We do not collect your data. There is no server. Nestkeep keeps your household running: don't forget anything, don't lose anything.
