Roadmap
We want to share our current roadmap for Augmented Mind. As always, these plans are evolving based on your feedback. Our focus remains on building meaningful insights from your photo library, all while keeping your privacy front and center.
By default, everything runs locally and privately on your device. Starting at version 1.0, we'll introduce cloud-powered features for those who want faster processing, web/mobile access, and advanced storytelling tools. Your support helps us continue developing innovative privacy-preserving ways to explore your memories.
