## What is Dearly?

Dearly is for the person you think about when your phone is face-down.

Not another group chat. Not another feed. Just the two of you : little notes, doodles, photos, and moods that show up on each other’s home screen.

Write something short. Draw something dumb. Send a photo from right where you are. Your person gets a push, and the latest dearly stays on their widget until the next one arrives.

What you can do
• Send text, photos, doodles, and moods
• Keep a home screen and lock screen widget that always shows the latest note
• See how far apart you are (when you both turn location sharing on)
• Compose on paper textures with extra pens (Dearly Pro)

Dearly Pro
One subscription unlocks Compose, paper textures, and extra pens for both of you. Soft paywall — try the free stuff first.

Privacy
Your dearlys stay between you two. You can delete your account anytime in Profile. (Privacy policy: https://dearlyapp.framer.website/privacy, Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/)
