Cheers is a simple app with one purpose: send something kind to a friend's lock screen. Write a short message — up to 50 characters — and it shows up on your friend's lock screen widget. No likes, no feeds, no algorithms. Just a kind word, right where they'll see it. HOW IT WORKS 1. Create a username and share your unique friend code 2. Add friends by exchanging codes 3. Write a short, kind message for each friend 4. They see it on their lock screen widget — and you see theirs That's it. No scrolling, no posts, no pressure. Just a moment of kindness. LOCK SCREEN WIDGET Add the Cheers widget to your lock screen or home screen. It cycles through the latest messages your friends have sent you. You control the rotation speed and can mute anyone you'd like. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Cheers doesn't ask for your email, phone number, or real name. There are no ads, no analytics, and no tracking. Messages are only visible to you and the friend who sent them. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time from within the app. FEATURES • Send short messages (up to 50 characters) to friends' lock screens • Lock screen, small, and medium home screen widgets • Pin your favorite friends to the top • Mute friends from appearing in your widget • Set custom nicknames for friends (only visible to you) • See when you last sent a cheer to each friend • Light, dark, and system theme options • Report and block users • Delete your account and all data anytime WHY CHEERS? Most social apps are designed to keep you scrolling. Cheers is designed to take 10 seconds: open the app, write something kind, close the app. Your friend sees it on their lock screen without even opening Cheers. Sometimes the smallest message makes the biggest difference.
