Small Talk is a personal notebook for remembering the kind of stuff you don't want to forget — but often do: Where they are from. The name of their dog. Their birthday. Add someone new in seconds. Fill in the details whenever. Jot a note after a conversation, and it's there next time you need it. No accounts. No tracking. No servers. Everything is stored on your device, encrypted. No streaks, no likes, no feed, no stress. Small Talk does one thing well: help you remember.

A source of social anxiety I've had for a long time has been my poor memory. In conversation, friends and colleagues will tell me tidbits about their life which I genuinely care about, but then I have a hard time recalling it next time we chat. This creates friction because I'm afraid to ask about things I should already know. To help with this, I started taking notes on my phone about people, and it actually helped a lot. The meditative practice of writing down the important things helped me remember better. But notes quickly get disorganized, they're mixed in with everything else, and they're not tied to a specific person. It's not the dedicated purpose of the app. That's where Small Talk Notebook came from. You add people, jot down what they told you, and check it before you see them next. Notes are easily searchable and intuitively organized. That's basically it. Custom fields if you want them, a timeline of notes, birthday reminders, but the core idea is just: remember what people tell you so you can be a better friend.
