# Managing Memories

> Create, edit, organize, and delete memories in Flast.

The Memories page is your central hub for managing all the context Flast knows about you.

## Accessing Memories

Click **Memories** in the sidebar to open the memories page. Here you can view all your saved memories and manage them.

## Creating a Memory

<Steps>
  <Step title="Click New Memory">
    Find the button to create a new memory at the top of the page.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Write the content">
    Enter the information you want Flast to remember. Be clear and specific.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose the type">
    Select **Always** for context that applies everywhere, or **Normal** for reference material.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add tags (optional)">
    Tags help you organize and find memories later.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save">
    Click save to store your memory.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Manual memory creation requires a Pro or Ultra plan. Starter plan users can view and delete memories but cannot create new ones manually.
</Note>

## Editing a Memory

1. Click on any memory to open its detail view
2. Edit the content, type, or tags
3. Save your changes

Edits take effect immediately. Future conversations will use the updated memory.

## Deleting Memories

### Delete a Single Memory

1. Open the memory detail view
2. Click the delete button
3. Confirm deletion

### Delete Multiple Memories

1. Use the checkbox to select multiple memories
2. Click the bulk delete option
3. Confirm deletion

<Warning>
  Deleted memories cannot be recovered. Make sure you want to remove them permanently.
</Warning>

## Organizing with Tags

Tags help you categorize and find memories. Good tag examples:

* `work` / `personal`
* `project-alpha` / `project-beta`
* `preferences` / `goals`
* `client-acme` / `client-bigco`

### Filtering by Tag

On the Memories page, use the filter options to show only memories with specific tags.

## Searching Memories

Use the search bar to find memories by content. Search looks at:

* Memory content
* Tags
* Type (Always/Normal)

## Best Practices

### Keep Memories Focused

One clear topic per memory is easier to manage than one giant memory with everything.

### Review Periodically

Your context changes over time. Review memories monthly to remove outdated information.

### Use Descriptive Content

Write memories as if explaining to someone who knows nothing. Clear context helps Flast use the information correctly.

### Example of a Good Memory
