Photograph a thing. Memono cuts it out, works out what it is, and files it in a box.
Things sit scattered rather than in a grid, and they stay where they landed, so a box looks the same every time you open it and you find what you're after by its shape.
Photograph a thing and Memono cuts it out of its background, then works out what it is and where it belongs. There is rarely much left to type. And if you already own one, it says so, and says where that one lives.
Sort things into boxes: a room, a shelf, a cupboard. Boxes go inside other boxes, so a drawer can sit in the room it's in.
Let the people you live with into the whole house, so everybody sees the same shelves and a thing added on one phone lands on the others. Or lend a single box to a friend, and that is all they ever see. Per person, you decide whether they can change anything or only look.
Scan a room and Memono keeps it as a map you can turn in your hand. Say which box lives in which cupboard, and everything inside it has a place you can point at.
Search by name, by what kind of thing it is, or by colour, even if you never typed a word about it.
Say where you're going and Memono writes the list out of things you already own, every line naming the box to open and the room to walk to. Share it, and whoever else is packing can add to it.
Handing a thing over asks one question first: for keeps, or just for a while? Either way it lands on their phone as the same cutout, its name and category with it. A lend remembers who has it and since when, knocks on their phone when you want it back, and comes home on its own when they say it's on the way. Sent as a link it is encrypted before it leaves, it stays yours until they take it, and you can call it back.
On a Pro iPhone the shutter brings back how big the thing is, written under its name. Photograph it straight down and it learns its height as well. Centimetres or inches, whichever side of the tape measure you are on.
Every room you have scanned stands on one plan, and a flat drawing joins the one you turn in your hand. Take out the ruler and the walls and the furniture say how big they are.
Put out a call and everyone you share with sees it. They can answer in words, or move the thing to where it really was, and your shelf corrects itself.
Print a sheet of stickers and tape one to each box, then point a camera at the square to open it. Or take the whole house out as a PDF with a photo on every line, for an insurance claim or a move.
A whole question works as well as a keyword: where the winter things are, what is in the loft. Dictate a thing rather than typing it, and let standing orders keep the clutter off the everything tray.
The cutting out, the guess at what a thing is, the reading of the words printed on it: all of it runs on the phone. There is no account, no analytics and no third-party SDK, and nothing goes anywhere on its own: hand something over and that goes encrypted, turn on iCloud and the copy goes to yours.
