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+) • Countdowns for visits, deployments and visa waits, with milestones and OPSEC mode • Good hours to call, and moment labels and shared albums COUNTDOWNS FOR EVERY KIND OF WAIT Count down to the next visit, a deployment homecoming or the end of a visa wait. Add the stops along the way (R&R, the interview), watch the bar pass halfway, and share a card with family. OPSEC mode keeps the date off your widget, your lock screen and anything you share. GOOD HOURS TO CALL See when you're both awake and both free, in your time with theirs beside it, for the whole week. One tap suggests a call with the time in both your clocks. MOMENTS, LABELLED AND IN ALBUMS Label photos, voice and notes ("first visit", "Lisbon") and gather them into albums you both keep. 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. Just a calm presence that says "still here, still yours." TOGETHER+ Free to start: pairing, their time, taps, widgets and one countdown. Together+ unlocks drawing on their lock screen, your photo and the together-for count, unlimited photo moments, audio postcards, premium themes, multiple & recurring countdowns and up to 10 connections — with a 7-day free trial on the annual plan. One purchase covers both of you. Plans and local pricing are shown in the app. The goodbyes are long. The countdown makes them shorter.
