If someone asked what God did in your life four months ago, how much would you remember? What about four days ago? We move fast. Moments of provision, answered prayer, unexpected peace — they happen, and then life moves on. ForgetNot exists so they don't disappear. In Joshua 4, God told His people to stack stones so future generations would ask, "What do these stones mean?" ForgetNot gives you a place to do the same. Every entry is a stone. Every stone is a witness. Over time, your stones become a story of a God who shows up, who answers, and who is faithful in the ordinary moments most of us forget by Thursday. STONES OF REMEMBRANCE Capture moments of God's faithfulness with words, photos, and themes. On the anniversary of each stone, ForgetNot brings it back to you in your own words — one year, two years, a decade later. Some things are worth remembering twice. SCRIPTURE FOCUS Save the verse God has placed on your heart and read the full chapter around it. A daily reminder brings you back to it — not as a task, but as an invitation to sit with it, wrestle with it, and let it do its work. PRAYER & DISCIPLESHIP Keep track of prayer requests and moments of growth for the people you're walking with. Know what they're carrying, and remember what God is doing in their story too. Be the friend who actually shows up — not because you have a good memory, but because you made a practice of paying attention. LEGACY BOOK Turn your stones into a beautiful PDF to share with the people who come after you. ICLOUD BACKUP Your stones are yours. They're backed up automatically and restored across devices, so nothing is lost. ForgetNot isn't a productivity app, and it's more than a journal. It's a practice of remembrance — one of the oldest spiritual disciplines there is. We just gave it a home on your phone. **SUBSCRIPTION INFORMATION** ForgetNot requires an active subscription to use after the free trial period. • Title: ForgetNot • Length: 1-month auto-renewing subscription (includes a 1-month free trial) • Price: $1.99 per month after trial (prices may vary by region) • Payment: Charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase • Renewal: Automatically renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period • Manage: Manage or cancel anytime in iOS Settings → Subscriptions Terms of Use (EULA): apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://remarkable-longan-5b3.notion.site/Forget-Not-Journal-Privacy-Policy-25bd553ee4a6808ea144e8255957e21f
