About

わすれメモ

"If only I'd remembered while I was passing that store." If that sounds familiar, this app is for you. Even on days when you're out for something else entirely, the moment you walk by, the app quietly lets you know. It's the unexpected joy of picking something up on the way — helped by a note your past self left behind. Wasure Memo is a shopping reminder that lets you safely forget. Just jot down what you want to buy and choose where to be reminded. You can pick a specific shop by name, or simply choose a store type like "supermarket" or "pharmacy." When you get close, the app gives you a gentle nudge. You can even adjust the alert distance to match how you get around — on foot, by bike, or by car. 【Free features】 · Nearby alerts · Up to 5 active memos · Alerts for saved places and existing memos stay free 【First 30 days / After purchase】 · Unlimited memos · Apple Watch, Home Screen widgets, Siri / Shortcuts · Custom alert sounds · Share your shopping list with family via iCloud  Each person sets their own alert locations 【Privacy】 · No account, no ads · Memos and places are stored on this device by default · Location is used only on-device to detect nearby shops · No movement history saved or sent to any server The first 30 days are fully free. After that, full access is a one-time purchase of ¥300 — no subscription. Not a memo to help you remember. A memo that lets you forget.
