About

Rembr

Features
Read full description

Rembr is a small app that helps you remember days from previous years. The widget first looks for pictures from today's date from other years, and if it doesn't find any, it expands the search to this week. And if that doesn't work either, it expands the search to only the 10 pictures closest to today's date. The app itself does the same thing and allows you to get an overview of "This Day," "This Week," and "This Month." You can click on the pictures and share them as you wish. Rembr is the perfect app for those who want to reminisce and remember important moments from their past. With its intuitive design and easy-to-use interface, Rembr makes it simple to revisit special days from years gone by. Try it now and relive your precious memories!
