Reteum
A notes app for iPhone that brings old thoughts back
Save text, voice, photos, links and PDFs in one box. Each time you open it, up to three old notes come back. Search by meaning, like "Seattle last month" or "beach", even across languages. The AI runs on your iPhone. No account, no Reteum server.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Reteum because saving notes was never my problem. I had years of them in other apps and almost never looked at them again.
So the app is built around getting things back out:
- One box for typed notes, voice, photos, videos, links and PDFs. Nothing to file.
- Every time you open it, up to three older notes come back at the top. Swipe right to keep, left to clear.
- Search works by meaning. "Seattle last month" finds what you saved there, "beach" finds your beach photos whatever the caption says, and a search in English can find a note you wrote in Japanese. Words inside PDFs count too.
- The Atlas groups everything into subjects on its own and links notes that belong together.
The one rule I set myself: no server. Both models run on the iPhone, even in airplane mode. No account, no analytics, no ads, and the App Store label says "Data Not Collected". iCloud sync is optional and end-to-end encrypted, and you can export everything as a zip with a Markdown copy.
It's iPhone only (iOS 26+) and the UI is English for now, though notes can be in many languages.
For PH folks, here are 10 one-time codes. First come, first served, and if one doesn't work it's already taken:

I'd love to hear what you'd want it to find for you, and where it falls short. I'll be here all day answering.
