Probabilistic storage and retrieval (PSR) of unitary quantum dynamics is possible with exponentially small failure probability with respect to the number of systems used as a quantum memory [PRL 122, 170502 (2019)]. Here we study improvements due to a priori knowledge about the unitary transformation to be stored. In particular, we study N -> 1 PSR of qubit phase gates, i.e. qubit rotations a round Z axis with an unknown angle, and show that if we access the gate only N-times, the optimal probability of perfect retrieving of its single use is N/(N+1). We propose a quantum circuit realization for the optimal protocol and show that programmable phase gate [PRL 88, 047905 (2002)] can be turned into (2^k-1)-> 1 optimal PSR of phase gates and requires only k CNOT gates, while having exponentially small failure probability in k.
