Memoria vs OurHome
OurHome is a free, ad-free chore, reward and grocery app that gamifies kids' tasks. Memoria covers the whole household — AI capture, vehicles, appliances, insurance, vault.
OurHome is a free, ad-free family app built around chores and a points-and-rewards loop that motivates kids, plus a shared grocery list and calendar. It's genuinely good at turning tasks into a game. Memoria isn't a chore app — it's the shared memory for everything the household has to remember: circulars and fees, vehicle and appliance renewals, insurance, and the papers that go with them, captured from WhatsApp, email or a photo and kept in an encrypted vault. Many households run both: OurHome for kids' chores, Memoria for the admin.

Switching from OurHome to Memoria.
There is no two-way sync — but there is no lock-in either. One-time, one-way, no data left behind.
- Forward your last month. Send your most recent OurHomeentries — school circulars, fee notes, warranty cards, insurance emails — to your Memoria number or email alias. Captures parse and back-fill in a day.
- Pin the Memoria reminder feed. Once your items are in, the calendar and reminder feed become the daily surface. Keep OurHome open in parallel for the first 30 days to verify nothing slipped.
- Cancel when you are sure. After a month of parallel use, most households unsubscribe from OurHome. Memoria keeps your full history, exports everything as an archive, and never holds your data hostage.
