Too much on your mind and always forgetting something? Memura is the place to dump everything you don't want to keep in your head. EMPTY YOUR HEAD Just open and tell it: a thought, a task, an expense, something said in passing. Voice or text, no order, however it comes. Memura recognizes people, dates, numbers and amounts on its own, and turns your lists into reminders. No folders, no tags. FIND IT BY ASKING You don't have to remember where you put it. Just ask: "what's on for this week?", "how much did I spend on the car?", "what did the doctor say?". You get an answer, not a list of notes. And it shows you where it came from, one tap away. STOP FORGETTING Memura nudges you at the right moment: deadlines, check ups, things you promised out loud. A shaky working memory isn't a flaw. It's just stuff better kept outside your head. YOURS ALONE Your memories live encrypted on your iPhone and your cloud. No ads, no profiling, no data selling. Ever. Apple Watch, widgets and Face ID included. Built for busy minds, for people who forget, for brains that run fast, ADHD included. Free today, with every feature.

YOUR CALENDAR, BUILT IN See your agenda from any calendar on your iPhone (iCloud, Google, Exchange), and turn notes and action items into events.
