Room for improvement

First, the paid version is expensive. Like more expensive than the Adobe Lightroom app. I continue to balk at the price. For $5 it’d be worthwhile, but for $27 it better clean my house. Second, I am using this app as an attempted replacement for Couple, the app my husband and I had used for 7+ year before it stopped being updated and got buggier and buggier. I’m devastated that we have to change. Couple has many features that this app does not: self-destructing photos, “thumb kiss”, a doodle pad that both can access at the same time. I also liked being able to delete texts from BOTH of our texts, but just my own phone. However, a couple things I do like about this app: I can search for conversations by date, which makes it SO much easier to find past conversations I want to refer to and the shared calendar. However, on my iPhone the calendar only syncs to the apple calendar and not google calendar, which I use instead. Stickers on this app are nowhere near as good as Couple’s are either.

Briliant

good way to keep track of and share intimate things with waifu

Great - when it doesn’t crash

I’ve been using this app for a long time, since Avocado was abandoned, and it’s the primary way my husband and I communicate. It’s very simple and I love that there’s a PC app to go with it so I can keep the conversations consistent even when I’m not on my phone (at work, at home).

BUT ever since I upgraded to my iPhone X about 9 months ago, Between has had ever increasing crashing issues that prevent it from opening no matter how many hard or soft restarts I try, until it suddenly works again. Worse, I tried contacting customer service about it and was given token advice about installing and uninstalling.

I’ll keep using it as I can because my husband’s iPhone 8 Plus has no problems, and neither do the computer apps, but it has definitely degraded the experience for me and I’m annoyed pretty frequently (at least once per day) when trying to use it.

Cute and clever

My boyfriend and I LOVE to use this app! Its a LIFE SAVER. It’s so helpful to keep everything between the both of us confidentially. It would be so embarrassing/awkward if I accidentally texted my father “I love you babe” or to my coworker “call you later tonight” when messages seems so close together from other contacts using original texting. This between app gives you the convenience to send messages intending to send to your partner. I also love to calendar and the count downs for anniversaries..ect. I also love how we can organize albums of pictures and comment on them together. Also, thought the selfie gif maker was cool.

One thing Id recommend would be a reaction option when we read each other’s texts. Or a place where we can search up our previous messages. Or like a couples game. Lol

Other than that, keep up the great work!

Love it; however...

My partner and I got it to be able to know when we each had to be at work/school so we could plan other things that we wanted to do together. One down fall, which is a big one for us...hence 4 stars not 5, is it forced us to pick a gender and we’re both nonbinary, meaning we don’t identity as either. If would have had an “other” option or something similar to what Facebook has, that would have been great. Other than that, it works amazing, my partner loves how it links photo uploads to calendar dates so they can look back through our time together.

Always connected

My partner and I have been using this app for years and we love it! You can express how you feel through the little animated emojis as well as use the home screen to count down to any special occasion. It’s great for calls, text and sharing multimedia! It’s really helped our long-distance relationship and we’ll continue to use it even when together again:)

Great app

This is a great little app that does a few things really well. A welcome way to take special texts and pictures from in amongst all the others and make them more private but readily accessible to you.

I’d love to see further development of the calendar function - ability to send invites etc, or add to Apples native calendar app.

Wonderful long distance app!

My boyfriend and I have been long distance for a while, and this app has been phenomenal! I can share photos from my camera roll or take them directly so he can keep up with my day-to-day(keep in mind that any photos taken in the app are still stored to your photos). We can also voice call (no video call, sorry!) or chat via the personal message feature. I like the inherent privacy that the app provides... it’s a special place for just me and my partner! I would highly recommend this app for any long distance couple!

Lové thé memory sharing

my boyfriend relied heavily on the story sharing due to long distance and time zone difference. I love how we can add comments and record fun part of our daily life with each other. I especially enjoy the letter function as well. Wish there is more music option though. One major suggestion will be the phone call function. It doesn’t work if the connection is weak or unreliable.. maybe update this part since we often have to switch between app just for the call function. But overall, amazing app for long distance couple or couple in general! thank you very much.
