About

Dear Date

Features
Read full description

Dear Date is the 30-second journal — the thing you reach for in the Uber home, before the date blurs. The window between leaving a date and forgetting how it actually felt is about 90 minutes. Notes apps lose that moment. Dear Date catches it. Open the app. Type their name. Tap how your body felt. Choose a green flag or a pause point. Done. You have a private record of what this date was actually like — not what your group chat will remember it as. Over time, the patterns surface themselves: who you keep picking, the flags you keep ignoring, the gap between who you say you want and who actually lights you up. — THE 30-SECOND LOG — The form is the product. Sub-30-second entry from a cold phone, with rating, voice memo, and tags. Voice memos auto-transcribe so you can rant in the Uber, not type. — PRIVATE BY DEFAULT — End-to-end private journal. Optional Face ID lock for when your friend asks to see your phone. Your entries are yours; we don't read them, train on them, or sell them. — SYNCS WITH THE WEB — Already journaling at deardate.club? Mobile picks up exactly where you left off. Same account, same entries, same patterns. — DEAR DATE PLUS — The journal is free — every entry, forever. Plus is for people serious about finding the right person: research-backed pattern insights (attachment pull, Big Three mate preferences, where you actually feel most like yourself — built on decades of peer-reviewed work on relationships), lenses that read your journal through added frameworks (Big Five personality, attachment style, birth chart, BaZi, Saju — coming soon), and AI reflections that quietly notice when what you said you wanted matches what's actually showing up — and when it doesn't. — WHAT MOBILE DOES THAT WEB CAN'T — Voice memos with auto-transcription. Face ID lock. Push reminders an hour after a calendar event marked as a date. Designed for one-thumb use in 9 seconds, not the couch-with-a-laptop browse. Mobile is for capture. Web is for reflection. Both are yours. — Subscriptions auto-renew until cancelled. Manage or cancel in your Apple ID settings. Free trial converts to paid unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the trial ends. Privacy Policy: https://deardate.club/privacy Terms of Service: https://deardate.club/terms
