Wajed tells you who to reach out to today, reminds you what they told you, and helps you follow up at the right time. A friend has a job interview on Monday. You write it down. A week later, Wajed reminds you to ask how it went. WRITE DOWN WHAT MATTERS • Keep a memory after a call, a coffee or a visit: a few words, a photo, a video or a voice note. • One memory can be about several people and appears on each of their profiles. • Voice notes are written out on your iPhone, so you can search what was said. KNOW WHO TO REACH TODAY • Follow-ups: turn anything someone told you into a question to ask later. • Reconnect: choose how often you want to talk to someone, and see when it has been too long. • Occasions: anniversaries and the dates that matter to them. • Events: dinners and gatherings, created in Wajed or read from your iPhone calendar. WALK IN PREPARED • Before a call or a dinner, see what to ask each person and the last time you were together. • Keep a short list of what to bring. ON YOUR HOME SCREEN • Widgets show the next person to reach and the one thing to say. • A notification arrives when it is time to ask. PRIVATE • No account and no sign-up. • Your people and memories are stored on your iPhone. • Lock Wajed with Face ID. • Back up to your own iCloud, encrypted on your iPhone. Wajed is a relationship journal, a friend reminder and people notes in one place. Think of it as a personal CRM for family and friends, not for business. WAJED PRO Wajed is free for up to 10 people, with unlimited written memories. Wajed Pro adds unlimited people, photos and videos in memories, and voice note recording.
