## What is Papaya?

Papaya is a private, on-device app for couples. Set your phone nearby, tap Start, and get a playful, illustrated recap of a moment together — and nothing ever leaves your phone.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN — NOT BY PROMISE
No account. No cloud. No sign-up. Papaya measures only sound and motion intensity — never raw audio — and everything stays on your device. The single network connection it makes is to check your subscription. That's it. Your relationship stays between the two of you.

YOUR MOMENT, AS A 30-SECOND STORY
Afterward, Papaya turns your time together into an illustrated recap narrated by a friendly papaya: your rhythm, your waves, your highlights, and a gentle story style like Slow Start, Building, or Three Chapters. It's a warm, funny thing to look at together — the kind of thing that starts a conversation.

OPTIONAL APPLE WATCH CONTEXT
Wear your Apple Watch and Papaya adds heart-rate and recovery context — a read-only window into how a moment together ties to your sleep and how you recharge. Papaya never writes to Apple Health; it only reads what you allow.

JUST FOR THE TWO OF YOU
Pair phone-to-phone with a simple QR handshake — no account, no server in the middle. Anything you share with your partner is end-to-end encrypted and travels over AirDrop or Messages. Unpair and the key is gone.

MADE FOR THE TWO OF YOU, NO ONE ELSE
Papaya is for adult couples to reflect on their intimate moments together — playful, private, and judgment-free. No leaderboards, no social feed, no shame. It's a conversation starter you keep entirely on your own phone. Prefer it quiet? Reflection Mode hides the score and badges for a calmer recap.
