Memories1817 is a private, local-first Flutter journaling app for preserving experiences as rich, searchable records combining narrative text, dates, categories, locations, related URLs, photos, video, audio, and file attachments. Beyond chronological journaling, it offers calendar navigation, search, category management, secure offline transfer, and a Memory Constellations view that visually links memories sharing categories, places, or nearby dates. Privacy is central: journal data lives in an encrypted local vault protected by secure key storage and device authentication, so nothing needs to touch a cloud service to be searchable, meaningful, and safe.
Meaningful memories rarely fit a text-only diary — photos, recordings, locations, and links are scattered across galleries, apps, and cloud accounts. People later search by place or theme, not exact date. A private journal must stay searchable, secure, and portable.
Built as an encrypted personal vault, not a cloud notebook, using a local Drift/SQLite database plus secure storage, cryptographic services, and device authentication. Entries carry date, category, place, URLs, and attachments, with device services for media, geolocation, and speech input.
A calendar-led dashboard supports browsing and creating entries, with search and categories keeping the archive manageable. Memory Constellations reveals clusters not obvious in a chronological list. The encrypted vault protects content, and offline transfer tools handle controlled backup and migration.
Consolidates narrative, media, place, and time into one private, discoverable archive, reducing dependence on public journaling platforms while enabling controlled backup and migration.
