Nomemo is an alcohol logging app aimed at users in Japan. Its core purpose is to help you quickly save “what you drank” and, as your records build up, review your preferences and discover new drinks. It covers seven categories: sake, wine, beer, shochu, whisky, cocktails, and チューハイ, so you do not need to use separate vertical apps such as さけのわ, Untappd, or Vivino for different types of alcohol.
The app emphasizes “5-second logging”: choose the drink category, search a database of over 100,000 銘柄, add a star rating, and save. You can also add photos and notes. On the data side, it provides visualizations such as a calendar, rating distribution, and drinking patterns by day of the week, along with a “want to drink” list, SNS share cards, a character-raising feature called “ノメモン,” and badges. Its AI-related wording mainly says it “learns user preferences and recommends the next drink,” but the page does not disclose the model, algorithm, or basis for recommendations. It is therefore better understood as a personalized recommendation feature rather than a clearly defined generative AI tool.
The free version includes basic features such as 銘柄 search, browsing/editing records, and bookmarks, but the FAQ states that you can save up to 10 drinking records per month. Premium is subscription-based: 480 yen per month or 4,200 yen per year (tax included). It offers unlimited records, ad removal, and detailed drinking data analysis and visualizations. Subscriptions are billed through Apple ID or Google Play and renew automatically.
Its strengths are broad category coverage, a native Japanese-language experience, and a lightweight logging flow, making it especially useful for quickly saving drink names at izakaya or tasting events. The database of 100,000 銘柄 and search by region of origin/reading also reduce the friction of data entry. Limitations include the relatively low number of free records; detailed statistics requiring a paid plan; the database being based on external data sources, with no official guarantee of accuracy; and no stated support for Chinese, open APIs, or details about the AI model.
Nomemo is suitable for fans of sake, wine, craft beer, and similar drinks, as well as users looking for an alternative logging tool after Vinica shut down. The main text does not specify access from mainland China, app store region availability, or payment availability, so these remain unknown. If it is not usable, alternatives include Vivino, Untappd, or a self-built drink list using spreadsheets/Notion-style tools.
