A lot has happened since our photographic memory issue in June. DoubleMemory 3 shipped on September 24, version 3.1 is out today, and DoubleMemory now runs in your browser too.
Saving was always the easy part. DoubleMemory 3 is about coming back to what you saved: listening to it, stumbling on it again, and asking questions about it.
Watch the 90-second tour on YouTube. It reintroduces DoubleMemory’s core features.

What’s new in DoubleMemory 3
List view. Use the grid to browse and the list to scan, with title, source, tags and date on one row. On Mac, iPhone, iPad and the web.
Listen. Saved an article and never read it? Apple Intelligence adapts it for the ear, reads it aloud, then plays the next one in your queue. On Mac, iPhone and iPad.
Discover. Hold to fly through a field of stars, then let go to land on something you saved and forgot about. Swipe up for the next item, or left to archive it. On iPhone and iPad.
Ask AI from any item. Open the Ask AI menu on any item to send it to ChatGPT, Claude, Grok or Gemini with the prompt already written. On iPhone and iPad.
Siri and Shortcuts. 13 Siri phrases to save, find and listen. Ask Memory answers questions about what you saved, worked out on your device. Every action works in the Shortcuts app too. See the phrases
Also in 3.0: reader mode, a redesigned capture sheet, and double ⇧ on the Mac to save selected text.
Give your agent a memory with dbm
Version 3.1 adds dbm, a command line for your Mac. It lets your local agents and scripts save, search, list, read, update and import items in your library, with JSON in and out. dbm never calls a model itself. Your library stays in your iCloud, and the agent that calls dbm does the thinking.
brew install idealistspace/tap/dbmOpen DoubleMemory once, then ask your agent something like “save this link to DoubleMemory tagged research” or “what did I save about onboarding last week?” More about dbm
Save with one click using PopClip
If you use PopClip on the Mac, there’s now a DoubleMemory extension. Select any text or link, click Save to DoubleMemory in the PopClip bar, and it’s saved in the background without pulling you away from what you’re reading. You can set a hashtag to add to everything it saves.
We’ve submitted the extension to the PopClip Extensions Directory, where it’s waiting for approval. In the meantime, you can install it from GitHub: download it, then double-click DoubleMemory.popclipext. PopClip will warn that the extension is unsigned. That’s expected for an extension installed by hand, and the directory version will be signed once it’s approved.
DoubleMemory on the web
Go to web.doublememory.com in any browser, including on Windows, Android and Linux, and sign in with your Apple Account. You can add, read and archive items there, and they go straight to the same iCloud library your apps use. There’s no new account to create.
A redesigned doublememory.com
We also redesigned doublememory.com. It now has:
the full feature list
the Siri phrases and dbm docs
our essays and the newsletter archive
import tools for Pocket, Readwise, Omnivore and mymind
