Your words, their lock screen. Luv is a one-to-one note app for one connected pair. Write a short note and send it to the person you are connected with. When a send succeeds, Luv stores the note for them. Luv can request a background refresh, but iOS decides when the widget updates. HOW IT WORKS • Create an account or sign in • Connect with one person using a link or code • Add Luv to the Lock Screen or Home Screen • Write a note of up to 96 characters • See your connected person’s latest note in the app and reply BUILT FOR THE TWO OF YOU • One active connection, with no public feed or follower count • A note archive and saved drafts that stay with the connection they were written for • Thought starters when you need help finding the words • Optional note-ready reminders • Connection milestones and a shared sending streak when Premium is active for both partners PREMIUM Premium unlocks unlimited notes, is shared with your currently connected partner, and is available through the plans shown in the app. Prices, billing periods, introductory-offer eligibility, and renewal terms come from the App Store and appear before purchase. Restore Purchases is available in the paywall and Settings. IMPORTANT Widget timing is controlled by iOS, device settings, connectivity, and service availability. A sent note may not appear on the widget immediately. Visible reminder alerts are optional and separate from background widget refresh.

Be the partner who always remembers. Cherish Us is your private memory for everything that makes your partner feel loved, their sizes, favorite brands, go-to orders, the important dates, and every little thing they mention wanting. When a birthday or anniversary comes around, you already know exactly what to do. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • Countdown to what matters: anniversaries, birthdays, concerts, trips. A beautiful home-screen and lock-screen widget keeps the next big day in view. • The Vault: the moment they say "oh, I love that," capture it in seconds. Share a product straight from Safari or any store app and it's saved, organized by store and occasion, ready when gift time comes. • Restock: the exact grooming, skincare, and staples they use, with the right brand every time. Reorder before they run out. No more guessing. • Their profile: sizes, favorite brands, and that specific go-to order, all in one place. Pull it up at the store in two taps. • Ask your partner: not sure of a size? Send them a link. They fill it in from any browser, no app and no login needed, and it lands right in their profile. • Daily nudges: one small, thoughtful idea a day, with a streak to keep you showing up. Small gestures, every day, add up. Cherish Us isn't a calendar and it isn't a notes app. It's the difference between remembering it's your anniversary and actually knowing what to do about it. Be present. Love deeply. Cherish always.
