mempit support
mempit is a quiet place for thoughts, links, photos and files. Capture first, sort later into optional buckets, and keep it all on your device or in a private account you can open on iPhone, iPad and the web.
Optional cloud accounts · mempit 2.0 & web
mempit 2.0 adds Sign in with Apple and optional Supabase sync. It is in internal testing and prepared for App Store review; until it is released, App Store 1.0 remains local-only. Cloud accounts can also use mempit web. You can use either client without an account; device and browser guest content is copied only after an explicit choice.
Sign in and copy existing content
Open Settings and export → Account (iOS) or Cloud account (web) and use Sign in with Apple. Sign in with the same Apple Account on another device to open the same cloud account. Choose Copy device memories to this account on iOS, or Copy browser memories to this account on the web, to upload existing saved text and files. The original guest collection and unfinished draft stay separate.
Sync, interruptions and conflicts
Changes save on the device first. Keep the app open and connected for sync, or choose Sync now. Interrupted work is retained and retries when you reopen the app. Cloud sync does not promise immediate updates while the app is closed. Original attachments can be up to 100 MiB each. Large files need time to transfer; a cloud capacity error leaves unsent work on the device. Saved conflict copies let you recover rejected edits as a new memory.
Sign out or delete the cloud account
Signing out returns to the original device library and retains unsynced account work for the next sign-in. To remove cloud data, on iOS choose Delete cloud account…, then Confirm with Apple and complete sign-in. On the web, choose Delete cloud account and complete the requested fresh Apple sign-in; use Check pending deletion if completion is interrupted. This removes hosted memories, files, retained history, signed-in buckets and private pipeline copies, not the separate device-only originals. If deletion is interrupted, use the offered retry action. Removing the app alone does not delete the cloud account. Read the cloud privacy details.
mempit on the web
Open mempit web ↗ for desktop capture, card or list browsing, text/file search, buckets and export. Sign in with the same Apple account you use in the app to reach the same private memories and original files.
Guest memories and drafts stay in this browser. Signing in does not copy them automatically; use Settings → Copy browser memories to this account. Browser ZIP export is limited to 512 MiB of attachment bytes. Clearing site data can remove unsynced work, so keep exports of important material.
Using mempit
mempit works on iPhone and iPad with iOS or iPadOS 17 or later. These instructions describe mempit 2.0; App Store 1.0 uses the earlier collection interface.
How do I save something?
Write in the input at the bottom and tap the arrow. It grows as you write. Use + to add Photos, Files or Clipboard content, or paste into the field. Your unfinished draft is kept when you leave the app.
Where are my memories?
The newest appear under Recent on the main screen. Tap Browse or the search field to see everything, newest first. Search looks through text and attachment filenames. Updating from 1.0 keeps every memory, file and draft.
How do I edit, move, or share a memory?
Open a memory to read it, follow links or preview files; its actions menu lets you edit, copy, share, add it to a bucket or delete it. In Browse, long-press an item and choose Move to, or drag it by its handle. VoiceOver offers the same moves as actions.
Why is a file taking time to import?
A photo or file stored with a cloud provider may need to download first. Each attachment can be up to 100 MB (100 MiB). Folders and symbolic links cannot be imported; choose the files inside a folder instead. Use Cancel to stop waiting for an import.
Can I use mempit on more than one device?
Yes, if you sign in with Apple in Settings. Your account library syncs between your iPhone, iPad and mempit web while the app is open. The device-only library stays separate; choose Copy device memories to this account to upload it. Changes save on the device first. If two devices edit the same memory, the other version is kept under Saved conflict copies.
Buckets
Buckets are optional. Choose Buckets under search and tap New, then write straight into the bucket, or leave Pit selected to save without organizing. Move text between the Pit and buckets with Move to or by dragging.
Device-only buckets stay on that device. Signed-in buckets sync privately with your account. Files stay in the Pit in this version, and buckets are not yet included in ZIP exports.
Imports, Shortcuts & Siri
In another app’s share sheet, choose mempit to keep the text or link. In the Shortcuts app, Save to mempit does the same, and New memory opens mempit ready to type; both work with Siri and the Action button. Saved items wait under Imports until you choose where they go.
Export & storage
mempit makes its own copy of imported files. Moving or deleting the original does not change the saved copy.
To export, open Settings (the gear at the top right), then choose Export memories. Save the ZIP to Files or share it to a destination you trust. It contains your original attachments and a manifest.json file with saved text, dates, and links. Unfinished drafts, buckets, and incoming shares are excluded.
Exports are not password protected. Native exports are limited to less than 4 GiB and 65,532 attachments. Browser exports are limited to 512 MiB of attachment bytes. Importing or restoring an export into mempit is not yet available.
