Auto-grouped, shaped your way
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Just let your photos come in. Hitotsuzuri gathers them into memories by time and place, ready to name, split or merge. Everything stays on your iPhone.
Ordinary days, gently bound together.
Just let your photos come in, and your memories gather on their own.
GATHERED FOR YOU
Photos, videos, screenshots, notes, voice recordings and places you visit are grouped automatically by time.
Each group is named from the places you went and the kinds of records in it.
New photos can be imported automatically (turn it on in Settings).
Sleep and workouts from Health can join the same timeline (read-only).
Google Timeline exports can be imported too.
SHAPE THEM YOUR WAY
Name a group, split it, or merge it into another.
Add notes to records and groups so they match how you remember the day.
Undo is available right after you organize.
