Milo
Read full descriptionHide full description
Milo is a couple app designed to keep relationships close, warm, and alive — right on your home screen. Whether you’re in a long-distance relationship, feeling stuck in routine, just starting something new, tired of endless messaging, or even sharing a deep bond with your best friend, Milo helps you stay emotionally connected in a simple and meaningful way. Unlike classic chat apps, Milo focuses on presence rather than conversation. You don’t need to open the app or type long messages. With widgets, you can send love instantly — straight to the home screen of the person you care about. One tap is enough to say “I’m thinking of you.” Milo is inspired by the emotional simplicity people love in apps like Between, noteIt Locket, Widgetable, and couple joy trackers — but it goes deeper by combining widgets, interaction, and relationship progress into one shared experience. Milo Widgets: • Note Widget Send notes, photos, drawings and stickers directly to your partner’s home screen. It’s the fastest way to share a thought, a smile, or a feeling — without opening a chat. • Relationship Timer Widget Shows how long you’ve been together in real time. Days, hours, minutes — your shared time is always visible. • Distance Widget Displays the physical distance between you and your partner. Especially meaningful for long-distance relationships, reminding you that connection exists beyond kilometers. Widgets are the heart of Milo. They turn your phone into a shared space where love appears instantly, without effort. Inside the app, Milo adds depth to your relationship. You can create and send your own quizzes to your partner, or try ready-made quizzes that help measure compatibility and how well you know each other. Daily interactions increase your Love Meter, turning communication into a shared score that grows as you stay connected. You can also send instant kisses and heartbeats. A kiss arrives with a cute kiss sound. A heartbeat arrives with a pulse-style notification that feels like your partner is thinking of you at that exact moment. Milo isn’t about more messages. It’s about more feeling. Less typing, more connection. Less noise, more love. Terms of Use : https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Draw on your partner's lock screen, from the other side of the world. The Long Goodbye keeps your person on the screens you both see most. Your handwriting lands on their home-screen widget, and on their lock screen once they add a one-time Shortcut. Their clock sits on your lock screen, and a countdown ticks down to the day you're finally together again. It's not another chat app to keep up with. It's warm presence, in the spaces between hellos. WHAT'S INSIDE • Draw on their lock screen — a heart or a "good morning" in your own handwriting (Together+) • Your lock screen, their drawing — their handwriting over your photo and the days you've been together, ready to set as your wallpaper • Lock Screen widgets — their clock and time of day, their last tap and the countdown • Home Screen widget — your partner one glance away: their local time, their last tap, the days to go • "Thinking of you" taps — one tap lights up their widget, no words needed • Reunion countdown — count down to the next visit, down to the time the flight lands • Photo moments, notes and audio postcards — little postcards, with replies • Your people — keep a partner, a best friend and a parent close, each a private 1:1 connection (Together+) MADE FOR THE DISTANCE Built for couples apart for school, work, military deployment, a visa wait, or whole oceans and time zones. Students, immigrants, deployed partners — everyone counting down to the next hug. NOT A CHAT APP No pressure to reply, no endless notifications.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Long Goodbye at none against Milo's shown. Long Goodbye also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
