Show HN: Ever wish you could save what you had just heard? Thank my 2-year-old

The idea for HEARD was born one evening as my wife and I sat at the dinner table and she described to me some funny thing my 2 yr old son had said earlier that day... I wondered out loud: "How great would it be to have an app that lets you save such cute little things (that usually came as a surprise)... but AFTER you had already heard them..." and she said: "that would be an amazing thing to have ... but how is that possible ?"

Well, by that time I already knew I had to build something like that, and a precursor to HEARD was born.... It has made us feel surprisingly empowered over the past several months we have been using it ....

Now HEARD is available for everyone to enjoy as an iPhone app available on the App Store ... Please check it out and share with people who you think might benefit from it. In particular any parents with young kids that want to preserve these wonderful moments with their children. Thanks guys!

It's a cool app because I have a goofy friend whose daily banter rivals Karl Pilkington. "I wish someone was recording this" is said daily regarding his routine.

That said, I personally would hate this app being used on myself. The thought of having to re-hear anything I said as a small child makes me cringe. My Facebook feed is now dominated by baby pics and I often wonder what the kids will think about having everything in their life since infancy logged on the internet without any say in the matter.
