Kern: Remember What You Read

You spent ten hours reading a book. A month later, the sharpest ideas are fuzzy, the characters blur, and the moments that moved you are already slipping away. Kern keeps the books you finish alive. Pick a book you've read and it becomes a deck of sharp, swipeable cards. For non-fiction, Kern brings back the key ideas, examples, arguments, and surprising connections. For fiction, Kern revisits the characters, relationships, turning points, themes, motifs, and settings that made the story stay with you. Then spaced repetition takes over, bringing cards back as each book begins to fade. HOW IT WORKS 1. Search for a book you've finished, or pick one from the list. No uploads, highlights, or homework. 2. Kern creates a deck built to bring that specific book back to mind. 3. Spend five minutes a day. Cards from across your library come round together, and the books you've neglected come back first. KERN COMES TO YOU - Reminders that carry an idea. On days you don't open Kern, an idea from the book you're losing arrives at the time you choose. Press and hold it to see the whole card, then tap Got it without opening the app. - Home Screen widgets. Answer a card or a quick quiz, or see which book is fading, right on your Home Screen. - Lock Screen widgets. The book fading most, and how much of your shelf is still fresh. SHARE WHAT STUCK Turn any idea into a poster for your story or feed. Or challenge a friend: two claims from the book and one that's made up. Which one? FICTION AND NON-FICTION Fiction and non-fiction receive different kinds of cards because remembering a novel is not the same as remembering a business book. Fiction cards contain full-book spoilers and are intended for books you've already finished. Reminders, widgets and posters only use ideas that don't give the plot away, because anyone can see them.
