Most apps treat people like contacts. friendcrumbs helps you actually remember them - the people you meet, what they love, who they know, and the dates worth showing up for. JUST TALK, AND IT BECOMES A CARD Say or type a quick note - "Met Tom in Munich, loves Bayern Munich and indie rock, kids Anna (7) and Max (4), birthday April 12" - and friendcrumbs turns it into structured fields on his card: likes, dislikes, family, birthdays, and more. No forms to fill in, and it's free for everyone. A CARD FOR EVERY PERSON • Likes and dislikes as colorful chips • Family and "knows" as relationship tiles • Pinned birthday, name day, and anniversary reminders • Free-form notes for everything else REMINDERS THAT ACTUALLY FIRE Birthdays, name days, anniversaries, or your own - with a configurable heads-up, delivered as local notifications. Show up for the moments that matter. LINK PEOPLE TOGETHER Mark who knows whom - cousin, colleague, old roommate - and see the little social graph in your life. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your notes live in your private iCloud database, end-to-end encrypted, with no account to create and no ads. We don't sell your data. The smart structuring runs on your device by default. For a couple of languages Apple's on-device intelligence can't handle (such as Czech and Bulgarian), you can opt in to cloud structuring, which sends that note's text to our service to organize it - it stays off until you turn it on, and you can turn it back off anytime. MAKE IT YOURS - PRO Add your own fields - Hobbies, Places, Favorite gifts, anything - and toggle them per person to keep each card clean. PRICING • Free: up to 5 people, voice and AI capture, reminders, and all the core features • Pro: unlimited people and custom fields - $3.99/month or $29.99/year Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://friendcrumbs.com/privacy notes that keep friends close.
