LuviDuo is the app for the two of you: stay close when you are apart, decide faster when you are together, and raise a little fox called Luvi as a couple. STAY CLOSE, EVEN FROM FAR AWAY • Distance widget: see how far apart you are, right on your Home Screen. • Photo Moment: send a photo that appears on your partner's widget. • Handwritten notes and doodles, delivered straight to your partner. • Mood: share how you feel and see your partner's mood at a glance. • Anniversary countdown and a shared timeline of your memories, with a map of the places where they happened. RAISE LUVI TOGETHER Every couple starts with an egg, and each of you holds one half. Hatch your fox together, give it a name, take care of it, spin the Spark Wheel and build its house room by room. Luvi does best when you both show up. PLAY AS A COUPLE • Do You Know Me?: answer questions about yourself, then your partner guesses. • Scribble Duel: one draws, the other guesses. • Truth or Dare: Soft and Fun packs, no adult content. • Couple quests, XP, levels and leagues with other couples. DECIDE AND PLAN • Swipe together on food, movies and series: it is a match when you both like it. • Quick Pick: suggest a few options and your partner picks one. • Shared tasks and shopping list, with reminders when you arrive at a place. ABOUT LOCATION Sharing the distance is optional. If you turn on "keep distance up to date", LuviDuo uses your location in the background so the distance stays correct while the app is closed. Only your partner sees it, and you can turn it off at any time in Settings. PREMIUM LuviDuo is free to use, with ads. LuviDuo Premium covers both partners: it keeps all your shared memories, removes the ads before sending moments and before games (optional bonus ads stay), and adds monthly Sparks and faster wheel energy. Premium is a monthly or yearly subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, and the subscription renews automatically unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel it in your Apple Account settings. Premium Lifetime is a one-time purchase with no renewal. Sparks are also sold in packs. LuviDuo works when both partners have the app: invite yours with your couple code.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Orbs at none against LuviDuo's shown. Orbs also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.7). LuviDuo's advantage is ratings volume (327 vs 11) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 10 days). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Orbs sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and LuviDuo sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Orbs holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LuviDuo has 327 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Orbs's written reviews are positive against 90% of LuviDuo's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Orbs ships an update every 10 days, LuviDuo every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
