What you can tell it, that others don't understand

Each row is something you can ask for, each column is a family of apps. A green checkmark means yes, a red cross means no, an orange semicircle means "partially": its asterisks refer to the note explaining why.

Notes, in asterisk order

Set manually, card by card, or re-ask each time. Nothing connects it to what you already know about the person.
Only on certain phones or devices: a Samsung Galaxy, a Pixel, an iPhone, or with headphones.
They remember the conversation, without linking people, dates, and places, and without triggering anything on their own.
Done on demand, without knowing anything about you: it doesn't draw from what you've told it, and it doesn't join the rest of your memory.
A scheduled check, every day: it notifies you every time, even without reason, or requires a paid subscription.

Google removed location-based reminders from its ecosystem during the migration from Keep to Tasks, widely rolled out in January 2026. Previously saved locations became descriptive text, without triggering.
