## Description

A minimalist memory archive designed for savoring the moments between the moments.

shoebox is built to capture small positive details, the kind that usually slip past unnoticed. It inverts the standard journaling model: the archive itself is the product, and writing is just the mechanism to fill it.

Built on the psychology of savoring, shoebox is a quiet tool for retraining attention toward what's already good in your day. Or just a beautiful place to keep the small things you don't want to forget.

FEATURES

• Frictionless Capture: Open the app and type. No folders, no tags, no mood trackers, no friction.

• A Rolodex of Memories: Scroll through your archive one card at a time, with gentle haptic feedback that encourages you to land on each memory rather than skim past.

• Daily Prompts: Gentle nudges to help you notice the small things - a stranger's kindness, a shift in the light, a moment of unexpected softness. Curated to be achievable on any ordinary day, never homework.

• Living Environments: Optional ambient backgrounds that shift through morning, afternoon, evening, and night — sky, ocean, rain, and aurora. 

• Lock Screen & Home Screen Widgets: Carry today's prompt with you. A small prompt on your lock screen turns every glance at your phone into a small invitation to notice.

• Siri Shortcuts: Capture a memory hands-free. Just ask Siri to add a memory to shoebox.

• Private by Design: All data lives on your device and syncs silently via your personal iCloud. No ads, no tracking, no accounts, no corporate backend.

• True Data Ownership: Lock-in is the enemy. Export your entire archive to a clean JSON file at any time, directly from settings.

• Quiet on Purpose: shoebox does one thing carefully. Updates are rare, deliberate, and never about engagement metrics. It is a quiet, reliable corner of your phone.
