01
Start with the people who matter.
Keep a private page for each person — and group them into circles: inner circle, family, friends, however you think of them. Add someone in a tap; no import required.
Private · on your device
Remember people by the little things.
Little Things is a private relationship memory app for the small notes, gift ideas, moments, and gentle nudges that help people feel known. No account. No Little Things cloud. No CRM energy.
No account · No cloud · No AI · Just your people
Why it exists
The details that matter are usually the easiest to lose.
A friend mentions a trip they’re nervous about. Your dad says his knee has been bothering him. Someone hints at a gift idea months before their birthday. These aren’t tasks — they’re little pieces of context that make people feel remembered. Little Things gives them somewhere private to live.
The five
A glint is one small thing worth remembering.
Five kinds of noticing, one colour each. Tap one, write a line, done. Together they’re how you’ll come to see the people you care about.
-
Observation
Something you noticed.
“Always orders the same seat by the window if it’s free.”
-
Interest
Something they love.
“Keeps circling back to slow ceramic glazing lately.”
-
Gift idea
Something to give.
“A linen market tote would land well for her birthday.”
-
Moment
Something shared.
“The long lunch where we finally properly caught up.”
-
Support
Something to hold.
“Big presentation on Thursday — check in beforehand.”
How it works
A quiet place for the people in your life.
02
Every little thing, in one place.
Each person’s page gathers their glints, gift ideas, the moments worth keeping, and what to follow up on. Organised around people — never tasks, never a pipeline.
03
Keep the moments, dated.
When something deserves more than a passing note, write a chronicle — a private, dated entry you’ll be glad you kept. The record you’ll want to look back on later.
04
A mirror, not a scoreboard.
The You screen shows where your attention has been — your activity over the last three months, who you’ve been close to, and a gentle nudge toward anyone who’s gone quiet. Reflective, never gamified.
Caring about people is not the same as managing them.Why Little Things exists
Privacy
Private by design.
Plain about the limits.
Little Things doesn’t need an account and keeps no cloud copy of your relationship notes. Your data lives on your device. You can export a plain-JSON snapshot whenever you need to — but export isn’t sync, and exported files aren’t encrypted.
No account, ever.
No sign-up, no login, no profile to manage. You open the app and it’s just yours.
No Little Things cloud.
Your people, notes, and photos never leave your device. There’s no server that receives your relationship notes.
Local reminders only.
Birthday and quiet-relationship nudges are scheduled by your device — local reminders, not push tracking from us.
Lock and shield.
A biometric lock and an app-switcher privacy shield prevent casual snooping. They help with snooping, not encryption — and we say so.
The full detail is in the privacy policy and terms.
Who it’s for
For people who care, not people who want a pipeline.
A good fit if…
- You already keep little notes about the people you love.
- You want gift ideas and passing comments to still be there later.
- You care about privacy and local-first tools.
- You like a gentle nudge, but hate guilt-driven apps.
Probably not if…
- You want a sales CRM or a networking tool.
- You want relationship scores or streaks.
- You need cloud sync across every device today.
- You want a task manager pointed at people.
Questions
The honest answers.
Is Little Things a CRM?+
No. It’s for personal relationship memory — not sales pipelines, networking workflows, or follow-up quotas. If you want a CRM, this app should feel intentionally wrong for you.
Where does my data go?+
Your relationship notes stay on your device. There’s no Little Things account and no Little Things cloud copy of your people or notes.
Can I export my data?+
Yes. Export creates a point-in-time JSON snapshot. It isn’t automatic backup or sync, and exported files aren’t encrypted by Little Things — so store them somewhere private.
Does it sync across devices?+
Not currently. Little Things is local-first and doesn’t offer cloud sync today.
Is the app lock encryption?+
No. App lock helps prevent casual snooping in the app — it isn’t database encryption. We’d rather be plain about that than overclaim.
What does it cost?+
Free for up to eight people. One one-time purchase — Little Things Full — unlocks unlimited people, custom labels, saved views, and the curated themes. No subscription, ever.
