February 13

on this day, year by year

Here is the most recent February 13, and then every February 13 back to 1959: the song at #1 that week, the album everyone was playing, and the movie leading the box office.

Your February 13

On February 13, 2025, “Die With A Smile” was #1.
Do you remember your day?

Most of us don’t, and that’s okay. Little Memory is a little diary for your iPhone. You write one line a day, and on this date in later years it shows you what you wrote. Five years of it looks like this:

I’ve tried for years and years to keep a journal. This app is so simple I don’t “feel bad” writing a sentence or two and being done.
