Getting Started with Keepsake

Enter your email

Head to keepsake.place and type in your email address. That's all we need.

Check your inbox

You'll receive a confirmation email. Click the link to activate your account.

You're in

That's it. You're taken straight into the app with a 30-day free trial. No setup wizards, no onboarding surveys — just Keepsake, ready to use.

Next time: Magic Link

When you come back, just enter your email again. We'll send you a Magic Link — one click and you're logged in. No password needed.

Prefer a password?

If you prefer traditional login, go to User Menu → My Account and set a password. Once defined, you can log in with your email and password instead of the Magic Link.

Type your thought

Click the note bar and write whatever comes to mind — an idea, a reminder, a random thought. Don't worry about where it goes.

Press Enter

Your note is saved instantly. It appears in your inbox, ready to be reviewed later.

Go to Contacts

Tap the Contacts icon in the navigation bar.

Create a new contact

Tap the "+" button and fill in the name. You can add a phone number, email, birthday, and any other details you'd like to remember.

Log an interaction

Add your first entry — a phone call, a coffee, a message. This builds the history of your relationship over time.

From the QuickNote bar

Type your task and add T+0 for today, T+1 for tomorrow, or T+7 for next week. For example: "Call dentist T+1" creates a task due tomorrow. Learn more about QuickNotes.

From the Day view

Open the Day view and tap "+" to add a task directly to your daily plan.

Open the Day view

It's where Keepsake opens — your day is the starting point. You'll see today's tasks, planned interactions, and any birthdays coming up. (You can always come back by tapping "Day" in the navigation.)

Reorder by dragging

Drag and drop tasks to change their order. Put the most important ones at the top.

Compose your day in time blocks

The Day view's timeline lets you plan the day as a sequence of blocks — writing, sport, your tasks — with hours computed automatically. See Organize your day in time blocks.

Navigate between days

Use the arrows to peek at tomorrow or look back at yesterday. Great for planning ahead.

Add a tag anywhere

Type #project-name or [[Project Name]] in any note, task, or entry. The tag is created automatically.

View a tag page

Click on any tag to see everything related to it — all contacts, notes, tasks, and entries in one place.

Open a note

Any note you've written. Publishing works from the note itself — there's nothing to export or re-format.

Open its menu and choose Publish

The note gets a public address at keepsake.place/@you, and appears in your RSS feed. You can unpublish at any time.
