Duet is a shared calendar for couples. Your plans go on the same calendar, the dates that matter come with a reminder, and the things you want to do together sit on a list you can both see. Your plans sit in two separate calendars. Anniversaries arrive without warning. The trip you both keep talking about never gets a date. Whether you live together or across town, one app covers all three. LIFE GETS BUSY, YOU STAY IN SYNC Both of you see the same plans. Add events, set repeats for the things that come around every week or month, and stop texting "wait, what time was that thing?" BRING THE CALENDAR YOU ALREADY USE Connect Apple Calendar or Google Calendar and those events show up in Duet. EVERY NUMBER TELLS YOUR STORY Birthdays, the day you met, the day you made it a year. Duet keeps them all, reminds you before each one arrives, and remembers how far the two of you have come. Put the one that matters most on your home screen with the widget. THE FUTURE YOU PROMISED EACH OTHER The places you want to go, the things you keep meaning to do, the thing they mentioned wanting for their birthday. It all goes on a shared wish list either of you can add to. Keep more than one list, drag things into the order that matters, and tick them off as you go. A QUIET PLACE FOR TWO Whether you live together or across town, Duet gives you somewhere to keep your shared life organized. Download Duet and keep your plans, your dates, and what you're planning next in the same place.
