Revere - Remember People 4+

I am very glad you have produced this app and wish I had found it sooner - it fills a gap between the Genealogy/family tree apps and the CRM apps. However for me it is missing one feature that I would consider would make the subscription price worthwhile. I read a review from 2 years ago saying there was very little extra in the paid version - you agreed and said you would be making it worthwhile by constantly adding features - built I’m not seeing that in what the paid version advertises 2 years later.

The feature it lacks (needs) is a field allows one to identify how each of your contacts are connected (if they are). For example each of my son’s records would list me as father and my record would each of them as son but nothing would link them to each other. Same for connected families and friends. Being able to show connections between people other than to me would take this app to the next level - effectively making it a family tree for living people and a connection tree for all my contacts (that only I have access to for privacy reasons).

Add that feature and you will have my subscription. :-)

Hey Aussie, noted and agreed. The connections between people would be really useful. I'm definitely working towards building that. First there are some updates to the UI that need to happen to make visualizing that info a nice experience. Thanks for the feedback, it's particularly meaningful from someone as discerning as you (having done your research reading reviews 2 years back). Mark

Wonderful application. I think it’s very modern layout and it is very useful for me remembering to care for and reach out to family and friends.

A few suggestions:

If there was a way to link family members when you add them into a person. For example. If I were to add my mom as a new person and then under the section family members add in my sister, her daughter. If my sister is already in the database it would be great to have a link through that family member so then I can click on her and it pulls up my sister’s person page.

It would be wonderful to have subgroups. For instance, for my extended family, I could have a group called: Extended Family with a subgroup of cousins, aunts, uncles, etc. This would help navigate faster.

Lastly it would be super neat to have a few more additional categories when adding people. For example I use the note section to write down peoples “favorites” of something. If you have more categories when filling out people like, a section of music or movies and then I could fill in their favorite movie is this or that, that would be wonderful. Another category could be where are they living, where did they grow up, what school do they go to, etc.

Again, great app super helpful. Those are just a few suggestions that I think would be marvelous with the app you currently have.

Thanks.

These are all great suggestions and all but the subgroups are on my list. I’m also releasing a new version built on Apple’s newer systems which will speed up new feature building, so lots happening. Stay tuned and thanks for taking the time to review.

I’ve been struggling for years with needing something between a full CRM (or even a light weight CRM), LinkedIn, and the Contacts app on my phone. I meet so many people and just needed a place to jot down where/how/when I met them and notes about our conversations so I could keep track of some details of the relationship. I’m not trying to sell them anything so I don’t need all the CRM features which made using a lightweight CRM for personal/professional reasons a really weird and gross experience. I also can’t remember all the details of who I connect with on LinkedIn and why, especially in short term networking situations. Revere hits the mark of what I need beautifully. Can’t wait for more Premium features, please don’t go in the CRM direction! Keep it fun and clean to use so it’s more B2C than B2B. Thank you!

Thank you! It’s great to hear revere it’s that sweet spot for you. And yes, the plan is to keep it B2C and keep building both Premium and Free features.
