Buds

Overview

Buds is a small app that runs locally on your phone to help you keep track of the important information about the people in your life — birthdays, kids' and pets' names, addresses, the details that matter.

The problem

Facebook quietly became the way people kept up with friends and family — birthdays, life updates, contact details. Then it stopped being about that and filled up with ads, influencers, and AI slop. Your phone should be able to do this for you, privately.

Principles

  • Runs locally on your device
  • Privacy first — no tracking, nothing sold
  • You own your data
TODO (Milly): confirm the live URL (the Buds homepage) and add anything you want to highlight about the design or current status.
