Write it down when it comes to mind. Pick what you need when it matters. A thought worth keeping can slip away while you choose a title or decide how to format it. With Snuumo, write it down right away, just like sending a chat message. You don't have to organize everything from the start. Writing it down is only the beginning. To use it again, you need a way to organize it. When ideas, to-dos, and things to remember pile up together, finding what you need gets harder. You look for where you wrote it, reread long notes, and copy the useful parts elsewhere. Before you know it, you're spending more time organizing your notes than using them. Organize later, a little at a time. Just the parts you need. Snuumo makes it easy to search what you've written, pick out the parts you need, and bring them together. You don't have to sort every note in advance. Start with what's useful to you now. Less effort to write, find, and organize your notes. That's Snuumo. WRITE IT LIKE A CHAT • Your memos flow in a familiar chat-style timeline. • Attach photos from your album or camera. • Tap a memo to edit it, long-press to select and organize. SORT IT LATER • Move or copy memos into notes when you're ready. • A calendar drawer jumps you to any day. • Search finds words in your memos — and even text inside your photos. WORKS OFFLINE • Everything is saved on your device first, so writing never waits for the network. • Sign in once and your memos sync across your devices. SHARE ON YOUR TERMS • There is no feed, no comments, no social pressure. • Share a memo as an image or text, or create a read-only link that expires automatically and can be revoked anytime. YOUR MEMORIES, PROTECTED • Deleted memos go to Trash and can be restored for 30 days. • Free plan includes up to 100 photos. • Snuumo Pro backs up your photos in original quality — monthly or yearly, with a 7-day free trial on the yearly plan for eligible new subscribers. Permissions for photos, camera, notifications, location and other optional features are requested when needed. You can still write and organize text memos if you decline them.
