Review and delete memories

Use memory settings when a remembered detail is wrong, too private, too noisy, or no longer useful.

Use the product path below before trying to solve this from chat alone.

Menu labels are written as they appear in Homie.

1. 1

   Open Settings -> Memory, or Personal Homie -> Settings -> Memory for private member memory.

2. 2

   Search for the person, topic, or phrase.

3. 3

   Open the memory and choose Edit, Change audience, Restore, or Forget.

Use this when you want to see what Homie remembers, correct a memory, make a memory private, restore an archived memory, or remove a memory from active use.

This page is about the controls a household member can use today, not the internal system behind them.

Start in Memory settings for household memory, or personal settings for private member memory. Search or filter first, then act on one memory at a time unless you are doing a careful privacy cleanup.

1. 1

   Open Memory settings or personal settings.

2. 2

   Search for the person, topic, preference, or phrase you care about.

3. 3

   Open the memory and read the exact wording.

4. 4

   Edit the content if the idea is right but the wording is wrong.

5. 5

   Mark importance when the memory should be kept close or allowed to fade.

6. 6

   Change audience to private or shareable when the memory is visible in the wrong place.

7. 7

   Choose forget when the memory should stop being used.

8. 8

   Use restore only for memories that were removed by mistake.

Use these controls to correct Homie, reduce noise, or make the home match how the household actually works.

• Memory wording.
• Importance.
• Private or shareable audience.
• Active, forgotten, or restored state.
• Bulk privacy cleanup by keyword, age, or audience when supported by the settings screen.

Homie should stay honest about what changed. If an action needs a trusted device, a claimed member, a connected account, or an approval, it should say so before claiming success.

• It will not make a memory private from a device that cannot identify the member.
• It will not delete calendar events, contacts, recipes, shopping items, or mail just because a memory mentions them.
• It will not treat a forgotten memory as active context.
• It will not show someone else's private memories on your phone.

A private memory belongs to a member. A shareable memory can help the household. If you are unsure, make it private first and share later only when it is clearly useful.

Forgetting a memory removes it from active use. It is different from correcting the official record in another connected app.

After making an operational change, do one small check. It is the easiest way to catch a wrong member, wrong device, stale link, or missing permission while the context is still fresh.

• Ask Homie what it remembers about the topic after changing it.
• Check the same topic from a shared screen and from your phone if privacy was the reason for the change.
• Use include archived only when you are looking for something that was already forgotten.

Check the surface before judging the answer. Homie should behave differently on a shared screen, a claimed phone, and a member-owned chat.

1. 1

   Use exact words when searching memory.

2. 2

   Edit good memories instead of deleting them.

3. 3

   Forget memories that are wrong, stale, or too personal.

Most Homie issues come from setup, identity, or approval state. Work through these checks before assuming Homie ignored the request.

• Check whether you are on a shared household surface or a claimed personal phone.
• Ask Homie what it can see from this device before assuming memory is missing.
• Use explicit language such as keep this private, share this, remember this, or forget that.

Good to know: Most changes apply to Homie's saved setup. Connected accounts and devices may still need a refresh or reconnect.

• Use exact words when searching memory.
• Edit good memories instead of deleting them.
• Forget memories that are wrong, stale, or too personal.

• What do you remember about my morning brief?
• Forget that old school pickup preference.
• Keep this memory just for me.
