The best app for people who can’t remember names comes to Android
Humin
is the kind of app that one can show to people when they ask what's
new and exciting, and today it finally arrives for Android.
Humin is perfect for someone who has trouble remembering names, and here's why.
Humin is basically your own personal assistant who specialises in remembering all the tiny details when you meet somebody new, allowing you to later look that person up based on context search cues like "lives in Manhattan" for the evening, when you open Humin you'll be greeted with a list of people from Manhattan instead of Brooklyn.
Because of this feature, Humin is great for people who travel or have friends in multiple cities. If you are f lying home for the holidays, Humin's homescreen changes to tell you who you know in the vicinity.
You can also receive calls and voicemails through Humin, which is why Humin works best if you just use it to replace both your default Phone and Contacts app.

While
Humin isn't a messaging app, it's designed to supplement your default
messaging app by acting like a portal of sorts, creating a natural
way to contact people once you've figured out who you want to
reach.
You can keep a favourites list of contacts for easy access, and a simple swipe on their name tile to either the left or the right will let you jump right into a phone call or text message, thankful ly using your default messaging app instead of forcing you to message through Humin.
That's the best part about Humin: It's there when you need it, and supplements rather than replaces your favourite messaging app. It would be easy to include a messaging feature inside the app, but it's not necessary, and why force people to change their habits?
In addition to being available for Android, Humin is also expanding into Canada and Europe.
