Keep the
little things.

Some moments arrive
already full of story.

A phrase that makes no sense until you know the whole afternoon. A made-up song. A tiny first that nobody else thought to write down.

Patterbook gives those moments a place of their own, with enough context to find them when the day comes around again.

A small place for the whole sentence

Keep it as
it happened.

A quick note now can carry the date, the voice, and the bit around it that makes it yours.

01 / WORDS

The line you
almost forgot.

Keep the exact words, who said them, and what was happening around them.

SAID · QUESTION · STORY
02 / VOICE

Keep the
sound, too.

Keep photos and voice notes alongside the moment.

SONG · VOICE · PHOTO

03 / TIME

Find it
on the way back.

Search by words and revisit old moments with On This Day and keepsake collections.

Capture what happened. Add as much context as you want.

BACK TO
THIS DAY

A moment from another year,
with the date and context intact.

A little further on

The days move.
The words stay.

When a date comes around again, Patterbook can bring the saved moments from that day back into view. No streaks to keep. No quota to meet. Just a page you might be glad to see.

A few plain answers

Before you
open the book.

When will Patterbook be available?

Patterbook is planned for iPhone. It is not yet available in the App Store.

What can I save?

Save quotes, questions, stories, songs, firsts, and other small moments. Entries can include context, ordered photos and voice notes. Find them by child, month, category or a phrase you remember.

Does it transcribe audio or sync to iCloud?

Voice notes remain audio, without automatic transcription. Optional iCloud sync and private adult journals are being prepared. They are not available in the current preview. Local capture, backups and file sharing work without them.

Can I share a journal with family?

Choose a few moments for a PDF, browser package or slideshow. Review names, notes, photos and voice notes before creating the file. Relatives can open it without a Patterbook account. Private shared iCloud journals are being prepared separately.

How much will it cost?

Buy it once, with no subscription. The final price will be shown on the App Store page at launch.
