Chapter 18: Thread Diary

It is a place to keep things together. You make a thread with a name, such as "Pep Food Industry" or "House repair", and save photos, videos, voice notes, documents, messages and notes into it. A thread stays until you delete it.

Tap the Mitra star button and open the DIARY tab.

Your list of threads, with the newest activity on top. Each row shows the thread name and how many items it holds. A search bar at the top finds threads by name.

Tap + on the Diary home, type a name (for example, "Pep Food Industry") and tap Create. The thread opens straight away. You can also create one while saving something into the Diary (see 18.3).

"No threads yet, tag something with 'd' or tap + to start one." Saving anything with the Diary button, or tapping +, starts your first thread.

Yes. Typing "paresh" in English letters also finds a thread named in Gujarati or Hindi, and the other way round. See 23.1.

Items shown as chat-style bubbles in time order, with date headings and a time on each. A bar at the bottom lets you add more.

Yes. Tap a photo or video to open the full-screen viewer, which supports pinch-zoom. Tap a document to download it and open it in an app on your phone. A location item shows a small map, and tapping it opens Google Maps.

Yes. You can search item captions in a thread, also across scripts.

Yes. Each item keeps the date and time it happened, the time you saved it, and where it was saved from, such as "Chat with Ramesh", "Rajesh's Wall" or "Community Radar". Items that carry a location keep it.

Yes. A thread is visible only to you.

Open the thread and use the bar at the bottom, the same way as a chat.

• Type a note and tap send.
• Tap the attachment button for Gallery, Camera, Document, Audio, GIF, Location or Contact.
• Tap the mic to record a voice note.

Tap the mic in the bottom bar and speak. You can listen to it again before sending, then send it. It is added to the thread as a voice note.

Yes. Choose Gallery for existing ones, or Camera to take a new one.

Yes. Choose Location. It saves your current position once. There is no live tracking in the Diary.

Items keep a caption, which is a short note about the item, such as "machine torn down". Captions are searchable.

Only the thread owner can delete items. Long-press an item to select it, tap more items to add them, then tap Delete. If someone else tries, they see "Only the thread owner can delete items."

Only the Diary's copy goes away. The original in the chat, gallery, radar or wall stays. The file is removed from storage only when nothing else still uses it.

Use the Diary (tag) action. You choose a thread, or start a new one on the spot, and the item is saved with a note of where it came from.

• Swipe a message to the left.
• Or long-press messages to select one or more, then tap the Diary button in the top bar.

Swipe a gallery post to the left. To save several, select them and use the Diary button.

Swipe a pin to the left, or tap the Diary button in the full-screen viewer. To save several, select them in the pin list and tap the Diary button.

Swipe a wall post to the left.

Text messages, photos, videos, voice notes, documents and locations. A location from a chat appears in the Diary as a map.

Wall doors, because there is nothing meaningful to store. You cannot save from places that have no Diary button.

All your threads straight away. Type to narrow the list, or create a new thread right there.

Yes. Saving something to the Diary is instant and costs nothing. The AI runs only when you ask a question or start an analysis (see 18.4).

Yes. Saving makes a Diary copy of the reference. The chat message, gallery post, pin or wall post remains as it was.

Open the thread, tap the Mitra icon and choose Ask a question. Type your question, or tap the mic to dictate, and send.

Anything about what is saved in that thread, for example "When was the machine repaired?" or "What did Ramesh say about the price?".

It answers only from the items and past analyses in your thread. Every answer shows the sources it used as small thumbnails, such as a photo, video, note or a past analysis. If nothing relevant is found, it says so.

50 questions per thread in any 24 hours. After that, try again later.

Use Select items to analyze to pick photos and videos. The AI studies them and writes a summary, which is saved in Past analyses. Chapter 19 explains this in detail.

Yes. Open it from Past analyses and choose Ask about this analysis. The next question is answered from that analysis only.

Questions and the items they need are sent to KuhuChat's server and Google's Gemini AI to produce an answer. Only your thread's items are used.

The app shows no charge for it. The daily limits above apply.

Yes. From the Diary home, long-press a thread to select it and tap the reminder button. You can also set one from inside a thread.

No. A reminder points at one thread, so the reminder button works when exactly one thread is selected.

You get a notification at the time you chose. It follows the normal reminder rules in Chapter 12.

Swipe a thread to the right, or long-press to select threads and tap Delete. You are asked "Delete thread?" before it goes.

The thread and every item in it, permanently. The originals in your chats, gallery, radar and wall are not removed.

Yes. Select them with long-press and tap Delete. If some of the selected threads are owned by you and some are shared with you, the owned ones are deleted and the shared ones are left.

If a thread was shared with you, you cannot delete it. Leaving removes your access and leaves the thread for its owner.

No. You will see "Only the thread owner can delete this thread."

If a thread had people it was shared with, each of them gets a notification, "Thread deleted", saying the thread was deleted by the owner and is no longer available.

No. Deleting is permanent.
