## What is Nearune?

Nearune is a small, private space for two people who are far apart — partners, family or friends.

Every day you both answer the same gentle question. Your answers stay hidden until you have both replied, then they appear side by side, translated into each other's language, with a speaker button to hear them aloud — in your partner's own voice if they've recorded one.

- Two clocks, side by side, so you always know what time it is for each other
- Local Feel: the weather over your partner's head, a quirky local story, and what's popular where they are
- A shared picture puzzle that reveals a little more each day you both show up
- Streaks that celebrate showing up together
- Share a photo with a comment, record your voice, set a status
- Daily reminder notifications you control

Nearune is invite-only: you create a room and send one link to the person you want in it. There are no feeds, no strangers and no ads. Photos and comments are screened automatically before they're shared. You can report or block content, and delete your data at any time from inside the app.

Make a friend now drops you straight into today’s question. New: show your clock in military time. And you can now leave a tip to support Nearune.

### 1.01 — 2026-10-31

Smoother invites and sign-up. Invite and confirmation links no longer expire, and when you open one on a phone with Nearune installed, it now opens straight in the app. We also made registration email-first, added easier ways to start over or open an existing room, and made links easier to read.

### 1.0 — 2026-10-31

No release notes.
