Wherezit
Shows your photos like prints.
A 4-inch six-color e-paper display. No backlight, no glow — colors settle like print. Send a photo from your iPhone and it changes quietly, or a new one each morning if you like.

The real problem
You didn’t forget. It was never recorded.
Where is the spare leash? Which shelf holds the school gear? Where did we put the extra supplies?
These details are too small for a calendar and too scattered for another list, so they end up living in one person’s head—and every question comes back to them.
That is what Wherezit is for.
Product
Save a detail. Ask later.
Save it.
Press and hold the button, say it, let go. “The holiday lights are in the blue box on the top shelf.” It’s written down, and it shows up in the app.
Ask for it. Hear the answer.
Press and hold and ask, “Where are the holiday lights?” Wherezit replies out loud from what the household told it — in Chinese or English.
All device photos on this page are production units, photographed by us. The pictures shown on their screens are AI-generated example images, not real people.

Why
Why we created Wherezit.
Every home has details that don’t belong on a calendar or a task list — where the spare leash is, which shelf holds the school gear. Someone still has to remember them, and answer every question later.
We built Wherezit so those details can be handed off with one physical gesture: press and hold, say it, let go.
And because a screen on the wall should be worth looking at, it shows your photos the rest of the time.
Production is complete. The next step is Kickstarter.
Questions
Reasonable questions.
Is this a real, working device?
Yes. Every device photo on this page is a production unit we photographed ourselves, showing photos sent from the iPhone app. Voice notes and questions run on the same hardware. We are now preparing the Kickstarter campaign.
Is the app available?
The iPhone app is built; the screens on this page are real screenshots. App Store listing is in progress. iPhone only, iOS 17.0 or later.
Can one person save something and another person ask?
Yes. Wherezit keeps one memory for the home, tied to the device — not to whoever is speaking. Anyone at home can press the button and ask. It does not use voiceprints or face recognition to tell people apart.
Is Wherezit always listening?
No. It listens only while the button is held down. Let go and it stops.
How long does the screen take to change?
About 16 seconds. E-paper refreshes slowly, then holds the image with no flicker.
Where is household data stored?
Voice notes are processed and stored on our servers so the device can answer later. We’ll publish the full data flow, retention and deletion details with the Kickstarter campaign. Website privacy and product data are separate.
Does it need Wi-Fi, an app, or an account?
It needs Wi-Fi and the iPhone app. Wherezit works on 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks only, and Wi-Fi is required to use all features. Setup runs over Bluetooth LE from the app.
You create an account in the app — a name and a password. The app requires iOS 17.0 or later and is iPhone only; there is no Android version. App Store listing is in progress.
What about price, launch date, shipping regions and colors?
Price, launch date and shipping regions will be announced on Kickstarter. The four colors on this page are production units; the lineup offered at launch will be confirmed on the campaign page.
Is Wherezit for medication, emergencies, or medical use?
No. Wherezit is not a medical device, emergency system, or substitute for critical reminders.
Does it use my location or recognize faces?
No. No location, no face recognition, no voiceprints.
