Keep a love diary with your partner. You each write three short heartbeats, and your check-in stays private until you both finish. Your partner has a reason to come back and write theirs. Each day or week, you both answer three short prompts, called heartbeats: something sweet your partner did, a moment that made you smile, and a reason you're grateful. You write yours, they write theirs, and neither of you can read the other's until you've both finished. Then the check-in opens for both of you at once. That's the whole idea: nothing opens until both of you write. WRITE APART, OPEN TOGETHER Your couple jornal doesn't need polished words. Write what you meant, then read your partner's side when you've both finished. THREE GOOD THINGS, FOR TWO Writing down three good things is a well-known gratitude practice. You each write your own three; after you both finish, they become part of your shared journal. YOUR MOMENTS, KEPT Every check-in you both finish becomes a moment in Memories, photos included. Search your moments, or pick a date on the calendar to find one. A RUN YOU BUILD TOGETHER HeartSync counts the check-ins you finish back to back. Miss one and the run starts over, and the app keeps your best run without nagging you about it. MILESTONES Anniversaries, trips, the day you moved in. Count down to the next one or count the days since. YOUR RHYTHM Write daily or weekly, at a reminder time that suits you. You'll get a nudge when your partner has written. ALSO IN HEARTSYNC Whispers: send a doodle, a photo or a single line to a widget on your partner's Home Screen. You choose how long it stays. Love notes: write something now and have it arrive later, at a time you set or as a surprise. JUST THE TWO OF YOU You and your partner keep this relationship journal together. Link with a private invite code; what you write stays hidden from each other until you've both finished the check-in. FREE AND PREMIUM Free: the full journal, Memories, your run, reminders, Whispers, love notes, up to 3 milestones, and photos on your first 3 check-ins. Premium: photos on every check-in (up to 5 each), unlimited milestones, the milestone Home Screen widget, Whisper history, and no ads. Premium is a monthly auto-renewing subscription charged to your Apple Account. It renews unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings. Terms of Use: https://heartsync.webdevnc.com/terms/ Privacy Policy: https://heartsync.webdevnc.com/privacy-policy/
