Rationale

Memories: Photo Widget is a photo widget for Mac, iPhone, and iPad that displays photos on the home screen and notification center. It allows users to add photos, change them with adjustable time intervals, and apply filters. While it handles photos and can display them as 'memories' in a timeline-like fashion, it lacks the core 'must-have' features of 'Remember This' such as generating insightful memory cards, smart relationship prompts, shared timelines with specific themes, or one-tap infographics/quizzes designed to spark conversations. It focuses more on photo display and customization rather than social reconnection through curated memory prompts. However, it does offer local-first privacy, Apple Photos integration (by allowing users to add photos, implying it can access existing libraries), a timeline-like view through its widget display, sharing capabilities, optional cloud sync (implied by being an app store app with data not collected, suggesting local storage or user-controlled cloud), privacy controls (data not collected), and is a native Mac app.
