Puffy is the softest way to stay close to your favorite people β€” a one-tap "thinking of you" app for your closest friends, your family, and your partner. No long messages, no pressure to reply, no feed to scroll. Just a warm little signal between people who care about each other. β€” SEND A PUFF IN ONE TAP β€” Tap once to let someone know they're on your mind. They get a soft, gentle notification β€” never noisy, never spammy β€” and they can Puff back instantly. Want to say a little more? Add a feeling like a hug, "miss you," "good luck," or "coffee?" to your Puff. β€” FIND YOUR PEOPLE β€” Sync contacts to see who's already on Puffy, search by username, or send an invite link that lasts 7 days. Every connection is mutual β€” nobody can add or see you without your okay. Not comfortable with someone? Block or report them in a tap. β€” YOUR CLOSE CIRCLE β€” Keep the people closest to you in one calm place. See who's connected, send a Puff, Puff back, and pick up right where you left off β€” no chat history, no unread badges piling up. β€” PRIVACY-FIRST LOCATION SHARING β€” Share your location only when you choose to. Pick from once, for an hour, for the day, or always β€” and stop anytime with one tap. Sharing is foreground and consent-based: Puffy never tracks you in the background and never shares your location secretly. You can also gently ask someone to share their location, and they decide whether to say yes. β€” QUICK-PUFF NOTIFICATIONS β€” Pin a quick-puff notification for your favorite person so you can send a Puff without even opening the app β€” perfect for a fast "thinking of you" between meetings or on your commute. β€” CUSTOMIZE & SIGN IN YOUR WAY β€” Pick the sound you hear when a Puff arrives β€” default, gentle chime, bright chime, or silent β€” and toggle Puff, location, or Premium notifications individually in Settings. Get started as a guest in seconds, or create a full account with phone number, email, Google, Apple, or Facebook. β€” WHY PUFFY β€” β€’ Soft, warm, and beautifully simple β€” nothing to configure, nothing to figure out β€’ Privacy-first by design β€” every connection and every location share needs your consent β€’ Not a dating app, not a chat app, not a location tracker β€’ Gentle notifications that feel warm, never noisy β€’ Built for friends, family, and couples alike β€” near or far β€” FREE β€” β€’ One favorite person β€’ Unlimited Puffs and Puff backs β€’ Basic feelings β€’ Manual location sharing and location requests β€’ Contact sync, username search, and invite links β€’ Block and report for your safety β€’ Core privacy controls and custom notification sounds β€” PREMIUM β€” β€’ Recent 24-hour location history, only with the other person's clear consent β€’ More favorite people β€” grow your close circle beyond one β€’ Custom Puff styles and premium feelings β€’ Personal notes added to your Puffs β€’ Ad-free experience β€’ Advanced privacy controls Premium starts with a 3-day free trial, then continues at the plan price for your chosen monthly or yearly subscription. Cancel anytime in your device's subscription settings. Premium never bypasses anyone's consent β€” you can only see a location history if that person has clearly allowed it, and they can revoke or delete access at any time. Puffy isn't about tracking people or filling a feed. It's the small, quiet gesture that says someone crossed your mind β€” while keeping both people in control. Stay softly connected.
