Loop for two

My wife and I had the same problem over and over - we'd see a restaurant on Instagram, a cool cafe on someone's TikTok, or a travel spot a friend recommended, and we'd say "let's go there someday." Then it would vanish into screenshots, buried bookmarks, or a chat thread we'd never scroll back to. I looked for a shared wishlist app that both of us could save to and organize together, but everything was either too complex or not built for two people. So I built Loop - a shared idea board for couples. --- Loop Premium subscriptions auto-renew unless turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
