Read full description

ReMee is a memo app that lets you save your past notes like cards and rediscover them at unexpected moments as they appear at random. Daily insights, passing thoughts, moments you do not want to forget, and memories you want to keep with photos. With ReMee, you can save them all as individual cards. Each card can include photos, colors, reminders, tags, and bookmarks. You can change the paper color, ink color, and label color to match the feeling or scene behind each note, building a personal stack of cards over time. You can also set reminders so that a past card reaches your future self. Words that felt ordinary when you wrote them may later become a small encouragement or a new insight. ReMee is not just an app for organizing notes. It is a quiet card-style memo app for meeting your past self again and gently moving your present self forward. The name ReMee comes from “Re,” meaning once again, “Meet,” meaning to encounter, and “Me,” meaning yourself. ReMee is a place to meet yourself again.
