About

My Good Things

Features
Read full description

We're surrounded by Good Things in life, many of them small and fleeting. A piece of music on the radio, a friend's laugh, the view of the garden in a certain light. We add joy to life by noticing them as they happen. My Good Things is how you hold on to them. Tap, type, or just say it out loud. Add a photo if you want. Tag it - People, Places, Views (and more) - so you can find it again. Over time, you'll build a library, a memory of the Good Things in your life. On a wet Tuesday in February, open it and find the song, the laugh, the garden — all still there, exactly as they were.
