Deforget
Read full descriptionHide full description
Deforget is a diary that remembers for you. Write about your day the way you'd tell a friend. On-device intelligence quietly picks out the things you'd hate to forget - commitments, plans, decisions, open questions, and the people they involve - and turns them into something useful: • Promises become reminders in Apple Reminders, right on time • Plans land in your calendar - and meeting notes attach themselves to their meeting • People get pages: the Index gathers everything you've ever written about anyone • Decisions and open questions stay findable, months later • Repeats and relative times work the way you say them: "every Friday", "in 20 minutes" No tags. No forms. No filing. You just write. A two-minute tutorial shows you how on your first page, and you can change your mind about any highlight from its card. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything happens on your device, powered by Apple Intelligence. Your words are never sent anywhere - Deforget runs no servers and collects nothing. Sync happens through your personal iCloud, invisible to everyone but you. Siri and Spotlight see your pages only if you switch that on. THE DIARY IS FREE FOREVER Writing, reading, syncing, and export are never locked. The intelligence - extraction, the Index, automatic reminders and events - is free for your first 7 days, then available with Deforget Pro: monthly, yearly, or a one-time lifetime purchase. Deforget requires an Apple Intelligence-capable device (iPhone 15 Pro or newer, M-series iPad, M-series Mac). With Apple Intelligence switched off, Deforget is still a beautiful, private, free diary. The intelligence understands English today. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
