Miles apart. Still together. CocoVlog is a couple vlog app built for long-distance love—and for anyone who loves the rhythm of hourly video diaries. Every hour, you and your partner swap 2-second landscape clips and build a shared day, one moment at a time. HOW IT WORKS • Record a 2-second clip once per hour (landscape only—cinematic by design) • Your partner’s clip appears on your timeline—unlock theirs by sending yours • Scrub through the day with the hour wheel and relive morning coffee → date night • See how far apart you are with the distance bar—updated when you each record • Export a silent vlog to Camera Roll—100% no audio, by design MADE FOR COUPLES • Pair in seconds with an invite code (up to 5 friends in your private group) • Send a gentle record reminder when they forget an hour • Quiet Hours so notifications never wake you up • Block or remove friends anytime—you stay in control SHARE YOUR STORY • Add your favorite song in Instagram, TikTok, or iMessage • Perfect for “day in my life,” reunion edits, and anniversary recaps SETLOG-STYLE, BUT BUILT FOR TWO If you’re into hourly vlogs, daily video logs, or apps like Setlog—CocoVlog adds what solo diaries can’t: a partner, a distance meter, and a day you build together. WHY COUPLES LOVE IT • Low effort: 2 seconds is enough to stay connected • High meaning: 24 tiny moments become one beautiful story • Long-distance friendly: feel close even when you’re 4.6 km—or 4,600 km—apart Download CocoVlog. Start your first hour. Send the clip. Watch the distance change. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
