Arrange up to 50 books on a 3D shelf with realistic materials and lighting Each book holds up to 100 pages — single spreads, double layouts, or auto-split panoramas Customize covers, accent colors, and backdrop themes Tap to turn pages with smooth animation, shadows, and perspective shifts Insert photos from your camera roll or canvas projects directly No more flat grids. Your memories deserve to be bound, shelved, and flipped through. Canvas Studio – Multi-Layer Visual WorkspaceA freeform collage engine built for precision and reusability. Stack, rotate, scale, and crop images with pixel-perfect alignment Apply masks, add text with custom styling, and snap to grids Save elements to your Sticker Library — reuse across projects Export in high resolution (Pro) or save snapshots to Photos Search by name or filter by "used in books" Every canvas can become a journal page — design once, use everywhere.

CoreMems
Read full descriptionHide full description
The most important memories are often the ones with no photo, or where a photo isn't enough alone. CoreMems is a private memory journal for the stories, feelings, and small moments that only live in your head — the ones your camera roll missed. One short voice note a week, kept safe for future you. How it works Open the app. Tap once to record. Say the thing — the way she said "the moon is falling," the way he laughed at his own joke, the conversation you don't want to lose. Even thirty seconds is enough. Add a photo if you want. Add a written note if you want. Both are optional. That's the whole loop. Fifty-two weeks. One story at a time. CoreMems is built around a single quiet habit: one memory a week, for a year. No streaks. No badges. No daily nag. Just a gentle weekly reminder, on the day and time you choose. Miss a week? Nothing happens. The frame is consistency, not perfection. Built for voice first A photo remembers what. A voice remembers why. Voice is the most natural way to tell a story in the moment — faster than typing, richer than a caption, and it preserves your actual voice for the years when you'd give anything to hear it again. Voice notes are transcribed automatically so your memories are searchable and readable later. A feed only you will ever see CoreMems is a quiet, private archive of your core memories — the ones that matter most, the ones you'll actually want to revisit. Your memories live in your account and nowhere else. No followers. No likes. No algorithm. It's yours, in every sense of the word. Start free with your first 6 memories. CoreMems Premium unlocks unlimited memories with an auto-renewing subscription: - Annual — $49.99/year ($4.17/month, billed yearly) - Monthly — $6.99/month (Prices may vary by region.) Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Your subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://mycoremems.com/privacy
