Where did I put my keys? Where's my passport? TacTac is the effortless way to remember where you left your things β powered entirely by on-device Apple Intelligence. HOW IT WORKS Say it once, out loud or by typing: "My keys are on the kitchen counter." "My medication is in the top desk drawer." Later, just ask: "Where are my keys?" β "Your keys are on the kitchen counter, saved 2 hours ago." HANDS-FREE WITH SIRI TacTac was designed around Siri from day one, not adapted afterward. Say "Hey Siri, TacTac" from anywhere β lock screen, another app, CarPlay β and speak naturally. Whether your hands are full, your attention is split, or you're already out the door, you can save and find things without opening the app. FOR EVERYONE WHO FORGETS No trackers to buy, no tags to attach, no folders to organize. TacTac is for anyone who puts things down in "a safe place" and immediately forgets where that was β busy parents, travelers, students, or anyone facing cognitive overload and drowning in daily mental clutter. It is designed for those who just want one less thing to hold in their head. Because everything works by voice, TacTac is especially helpful when finding things is more than an annoyance: for people with ADHD who lose track of objects many times a day, for individuals suffering from mental fatigue, and for blind and low-vision users who can save and retrieve locations by speaking with Siri instead of searching by hand. PLACE-AWARE MEMORY Save places like Home, Work, or School. When you save an item, TacTac can note which place you were at, so answers are more useful: "Your umbrella is by the front door, at Home." COMPLETELY PRIVATE TacTac is built privacy-first. Everything happens on your device: - Language understanding runs on-device with Apple Intelligence β nothing is sent to a server. - Your items and places are stored locally on your iPhone. - No account, no sign-up, no tracking, no ads. Your data is yours. Not even we can see it. A CLEAN, SIMPLE APP Everything you save is also browsable in a clear, simple list β search instantly, edit or delete items, and pick icons that make things easy to recognize. Never retrace your steps. Tell TacTac once β and just ask.
