Q: Will my friends know what I write about them?
A: No! Only you can see the labels and notes you've written.
Q: Where are my notes stored?
A: For your privacy and security, your data is stored offline on your own computer by default. If you choose to create an online backup, your data is backed up to our servers so you can sync it across multiple devices.
Q: What does syncing do?
Syncing keeps your notes up-to-date between multiple devices. Changes on one device will be sent to all other devices signed in to the same backup. You can also transfer your notes to a new device by signing in to your backup on it.
Q: Do you collect data on my friends or my Facebook activity?
A: We do not store any information besides your notes, labels, and friends' names.
Q: It says that you can "read and change my data on www.facebook.com";. What gives?
A: We need to detect whose Facebook profile you are viewing and load their corresponding labels and notes. Hence, this is a Chrome permission allowing us to do that.

- (2022-05-02) Dio: Read the Privacy practices! It reads "Backstory: Remember Your Facebook Friends! collects the following: For example: passwords, credentials, security question, or personal identification number (PIN)"
- (2021-06-05) A: Update: It doesn't work on Facebook, like I don't see the box on peoples profiles but when i click the extension on the toolbar it shows the lists and search fine. Please fix and i'll give you the one star back! I LOVE THIS APP. Thank you so much. The one thing to add is the capacity to search more than one thing at once. Say 2 tags or a tag and a note together and more like 3 or 4 or 5 ... items
- (2020-03-22) Ben Dawson: Great idea! I've been looking for something like this for quite some time. Was very surprised that Facebook didn't have a native version.
- (2019-12-16) Marat Dospolov: Cool stuff
- (2019-08-07) Christoph Laurent: Awesome! Thanks! Have been searching for something like this for AGES and was thinking of making a feature like this myself. Luckily I found your App before starting DEV. Great Job! +++ Don't understand why facebook won't add this themselves.
- (2018-06-10) Tan Nguyen: thanks to this app I can organize my facebook friends effectively
- (2017-01-20) Wen Rui Liau: Adds a great personal touch to your Facebook friends and great for remembering little trivial about them too! Facebook please remember to credit the creator when you (eventually) add this as a permanent feature.
- (2017-01-19) Yunru Phua (Yunru P): Not sure why Facebook never created this feature, because it is such a NECESSITY for every Facebook user! With over 1200+ friends, I'll never have to agonize over how I met this Facebook friend with an unfamiliar profile pic again. 11/10 recommend.
