## What is My Penguin?

My Penguin is a tiny, private world for exactly two people: you and your favorite person.

No feeds. No likes. No streaks. Just a quiet, beautiful place where the two of you keep what matters.

LEAVE PEBBLES
Little memories, written in a moment — "you saved me the last dumpling" — and kept forever in Our Jar.

SEND POCKET AFFECTIONS
One tap: Thinking of You, a Hug, Coffee, a Kiss, Love You, Good Night. Your person feels it on their phone seconds later, delivered by your penguin.

YOUR PENGUIN WRITES YOUR STORY
Every week, your penguin looks back over your little moments and writes the two of you a letter — playful, tender, a little silly, never corporate. Monthly letters go deeper. And every year on your anniversary, it writes the next chapter of Our Story.

OPEN-WHEN LETTERS
Seal letters for the moments that will need them: "Open when work was awful." "Open on our anniversary." They wait, sealed, until it's time.

OUR NEST
Photos, your anniversary countdown, and old memories your penguin digs up from the ice to make you smile.

BUILT FOR TWO, PRICED FOR TWO
One subscription covers you both: $29.99/year or $3.99/month. Your partner joins with a simple 6-digit code — no second payment, ever.

YOUR MEMORIES ARE ALWAYS YOURS
If your subscription ever lapses, everything you both made stays readable. Nothing is deleted. Nothing is held hostage. Ever.

A note on privacy: the penguin's letters are written with the help of an AI — and only with your permission. The app asks each of you first; letters are only written when both partners have said yes, and you can change your mind any time in Settings. When you both agree, your first names, pebbles, affection counts, photo captions, and open-when letters are sent securely to an AI service (Anthropic), solely to write your letters. Your content is never sold and never used to train AI models. Full policy: https://mypenguin-app.vercel.app/privacy

AUTO-RENEWABLE SUBSCRIPTIONS
My Penguin is free to download; the nest is unlocked by one auto-renewable subscription that covers BOTH partners:
- Nest Yearly: $29.99 / year (1-year subscription)
- Nest Monthly: $3.99 / month (1-month subscription)
Prices may vary by region. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. If a subscription lapses, everything you made stays readable.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.1.0 — 2026-08-08

When your penguin says something is waiting, it's there the moment you open the app.

Before, a notification could arrive and Home would still look empty until you pulled down to refresh. What your person sent was never lost — the app just wasn't showing it to you. That's fixed.

Pockets and pebbles now also arrive while the app is already open, instead of waiting quietly until the next time you came back to it.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-07-26

Nothing gets missed anymore.

• Love that arrives late at night no longer disappears at midnight — anything your person sent stays waiting until you've actually seen it, marked "New".
• Write a message: send your person real words, not just a tap. Your penguin carries it over and keeps it forever.
• Your penguin now reads your messages into its weekly letters.
• A badge on the app icon when something's waiting for you.
• Tell the penguin your name (Settings > Us) so your letters say your names instead of "Penguin One".
• The penguin is more alive — it swoons over what's waiting, waddles off when you send something, and keeps you company while you wait.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-07-25

A gentler, warmer nest.

• A brand-new look — the whole app now glows like an aurora over dark ice, with hand-drawn artwork and icons throughout.
• Your penguin has arrived — the little illustrated penguin now greets you across the app.
• A floating dock makes it quicker to move between your Home, Jar, Nest, and Letters — with one button to send love from anywhere.
• Fixed: your anniversary date now shows exactly the day you picked.
• Fixed: text no longer gets cut off on the AI letters screen.

### 1.0 — 2026-07-24

No release notes.
