About

NightKeep

Features
Read full description

NightKeep is a small, calm app for the end of your day. Most evenings, your head is louder than the room. NightKeep gives you a place to set it down — to talk through what's on your mind, organize the loose ends, and lock the day away so you can sleep. A nightly ritual, in two beats: EVENING: Open the app and have a short conversation. Type or speak. NightKeep listens, asks the right small questions, and turns the swirl into a few clear items. When you're ready, the box closes for the night. MORNING: Open the box. NightKeep walks you through what you set down last night: a gentle plan for the day, a few words on the heavier themes, and small suggestions for the things you weren't sure how to start. You can chat back any time. WHAT MAKES IT FEEL DIFFERENT • A ritual, not a feature list. The lock and the open are real moments — soft animations, a warm voice, no badges, no streaks, no notifications begging you to come back. • Voice-first, with text as a peer. Speak naturally; NightKeep keeps up. Or type if you'd rather. • Memory that earns its place. NightKeep gradually learns the shape of your week — the people you mention, what you're working on, what helps you most — and refers back gently. You can see, edit, or delete every single thing it remembers. • English and Hebrew, including grammatical gender for Hebrew. • Sign in with Apple or Google so your nights move with you across devices. WHAT NIGHTKEEP IS NOT NightKeep is a reflection companion. It is not therapy, not a medical device, and not a crisis service. It will never diagnose you and will never pretend to be human. If you are in distress, use the "Get help" link inside the app. PRIVACY You own your data. By default, your conversations are not retained — NightKeep keeps the items you locked into the box and a small set of durable memories you can view and delete one by one. If you want to help improve the app you can opt in to share your sessions with the developer; that's the only way they'd ever leave your phone, and you can turn it off or delete what's already shared at any time. Delete your whole account in one tap in Settings. NightKeep contains no third-party advertising and no analytics SDKs beyond crash diagnostics.
