We’d like to announce the release of
Mémoires 5,
the newest version of our journaling app.
This year we are celebrating the 15th anniversary of Mémoires.
The latest version is our biggest update ever: it comes with new useful features,
modernized user interface, and full support for Macs with Apple Silicon.
Rest assured that we will never betray our initial goal: the easiest to use
simple journaling app for Mac that you can rely on for a long time.
Highlights of this release
Awesome dark mode. It even automatically adapts text and drawings (created
by the improved Quick Drawing feature) to the right color.
Color labels for your entries. Group what you write with color labels and then
easily browse enteries by label.
Redesigned Quick Drawing. Now featuring eraser, Touch Bar support, and better colors that work
well both on white and dark background.
Insert from iPhone or iPad. Use your iPhone or iPad to add photo, draw a sketch or
scan a document right into Mémoires on your Mac.
Improved performance. We rewrote a lot of code and improved performance of switching
between entries and saving journals.
Apple Silicon support. Now a Universal app for both Apple Silicon (M1) chips and
Intel processors, so that it runs as fast as possible, natively.
Improved tabs. Turn on the dedicated tabbed mode in the app preferences and
enjoy multiple journals in a single window.
Full macOS 12 Monterey support. Fresh new icons for the app and journals, redesigned
user interface, and other nits and bits.
Better Touch Bar support. Touch Bar is going away, but we still support it and
improve how Mémoires works with it. Now you can easily create entries and switch between
views using the Touch Bar.
Automatic File Format Conversion. To accomodate for new features, Mémoires 5 has
an enhanced file format for journals. Once your journals are opened in Mémoires 5, they
are automatically converted to the new version, and cannot be opened in older
versions of Mémoires. Please make sure to use the latest version on all computers
if you share your journals between them.
How to upgrade
Mémoires 5 is the major version, and thus requires a new license.
As always, we provide the discounted update pricing for our existing users.
Additionally, for a limited time we provide the upgrade price
for everyone. Unlike many software companies, we are not switching
to the subscription model — you pay for the major version once, receive minior
updates for free, and can keep using it forever without paying.
As old-school and honest as it gets.
