Omiyage

The cards, art, and keepsakes people gave you — scanned, searchable, always within reach. Rediscover them and connect with the people behind them when you need it most.

Designed by a physician. Built around the relationships that have shaped you.

Omiyage (oh-mee-YAH-geh) is a Japanese word for the thoughtful gifts that strengthen the bonds between people. The cards, letters, artwork, and keepsakes you've saved are a kind of omiyage — small offerings of love, given and kept.

Omiyage turns those tangible expressions into a living collection — searchable, organized, always within reach — and a source of comfort, connection, and joy. Your phone is already with you everywhere. Now the people who love you are, too.

A MEMORY FOR TODAY One memory, every day. Surfaced when you open the app — a card, a letter, a small moment from your collection. Set there for you to find when you're ready.

OPEN THE BOX On hard days, the right memory can shift everything. Open the Box draws one from your collection — a reminder of who loves you and why.

YOUR RELATIONSHIPS, REMEMBERED Every card from your mom, in one place. Every note your kids made for you, year after year. Tap a name and see the full arc — the birthdays, the apologies, the ordinary days that turned out to matter. The shape of a relationship, told through the things they wrote you.

SCAN & PRESERVE Cards, letters, artwork — and the digital things, too. Texts that shouldn't disappear into a thread. Emails that meant something. Bring them all together. Every word becomes searchable, even handwriting. Find the love letter someone wrote you years ago, in seconds.

THE OBJECTS YOU’VE KEPT The mug from your first apartment. Your grandma's recipe card. The teapot you don't have room for. Photograph the objects that hold meaning, whether you keep them or not.

CAPTURE THE MOMENT IN YOUR OWN VOICE Add a voice memo to any memory. Capture how you felt when you received it, what it meant, why it matters. Years later, you'll hear your own voice reminding you what that moment was really about.

RECONNECT WITH THE PEOPLE WHO MATTER The cards in your collection represent real relationships. Browse a message from someone you love, then reach out. Share a memory and reconnect over something that mattered to both of you. Omiyage helps you remember the people who took time to write to you, and helps them feel remembered.

PHYSICIAN-DESIGNED FOR CONNECTION Omiyage was designed by a physician inspired by Harvard's Study of Adult Development — the longest study of happiness ever conducted — which found that close relationships are deeply tied to lifelong wellbeing. More recent research shows that revisiting memories of the people we love engages the brain's reward and bonding systems together, which is why a card from your grandma can carry you through a hard day, even years later.

YOURS TO KEEP, YOURS TO LET GO Your memories live in your own iCloud account, not ours. We never see what you save. Once a memory is preserved, you can let the original go. Reclaim the space, and keep what matters.
