## What is PairCall?

PairCall automates the catch-up call you both keep meaning to have — with a partner, a close friend, a parent, or anyone you want to stay in touch with.

You pair up with one person, agree on times, and at each check-in PairCall rings BOTH phones like a real call. Answer, talk, done.

• Real calls at the times you chose, not another ignorable notification
• Video or voice — see each other or just talk
• Skip a day or push a call back 30 minutes when life happens — your partner sees it instantly
• An optional backup alarm-based call that cuts through Do Not Disturb when a check-in is missed
• Weekly or monthly schedules, shared and edited by either of you
• No accounts, no feeds, no tracking — just a 6-letter invite code and a person you care about

A few ways people use PairCall:
• A weekly video call with a parent or grandparent who lives far away
• Body doubling — hop on together and encourage each other to get moving or working (PairCall gets things started)
• A standing catch-up with a friend you always mean to call but never get round to
• A morning accountability call with your sibling for the gym, a study session, or a new habit
• Long-distance couples keeping a nightly ritual across timezones

PairCall stores only your first name, your schedule, and what's needed to ring your phones. Calls are never recorded. There's no history and no grading — the app's only job is making the call happen.


## Version history (last 3 releases)

Fixed: the gentle "in 2 minutes" reminder before each check-in now still arrives when the follow-up alarm is turned off.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-07-27

Security hardening: each phone now proves its identity to the PairCall server with its own private key. Nothing changes in how you use the app.

No release notes.
