## What is Ember?

Some people count the days without even meaning to. Ember counts with you.

Ember puts the person you lost on your home screen — their photo, softly lit, and the days: "1,204 days loved and missed." Not another app to open. It lives where you already look, a hundred times a day.

THE WIDGET
• Their photo and the counter, on your home screen in every size.
• A quiet text counter for your lock screen.
• The count turns over at midnight, on its own.
• Choose the wording: "days loved and missed," "days since we said goodbye," "days of missing you," or a plain count.

THE HARD DAYS, HELD
Some days arrive like weather — the first birthday without them, the first holiday season, each anniversary. Ember knows the dates and tells you two weeks ahead, so no hard day lands unannounced. Alerts are off by default for everything except the birthday and the anniversary. This is a keepsake, not a notification machine.

EVERYONE YOU CARRY
Grief rarely comes one at a time. Ember keeps a page for each person — their own photos, their own dates, their own widget.

NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE
No account. No cloud. No tracking. No analytics. The photos and dates stay on your device. This is between you and them.

PRICING — ONCE, ON PURPOSE
The free app is a real memorial: one person, one widget, the first milestone. Ember — Forever is $9.99, once. Every person, every photo, every widget size, the whole milestone arc, all four themes.

No subscription — ever. A memorial that expires when a payment lapses is obscene. Pay once, and it's yours for good.

QUIET BY DESIGN
Nothing gamified, nothing loud, no confetti, no therapy-speak. Four muted themes — Warm Slate, Candlelight, Linen, Night — a serif numeral, and the days. The app gets out of the way.
