Closer is a daily five-minute ritual for couples. One question, answered separately, revealed together. A quiet practice — informed by relationship research, not therapy. How it works Each morning, one prompt appears in the app. You answer privately. Your partner answers privately. Once both of you have responded, you can see each other's answers and start a conversation. Some questions are light. Some go deep. All are written to spark honest, specific conversation. Quizzes and games Once a week, a quiz lands — six statements you both score, comparing strengths and gaps. Games like "You or Me?" surface what you have in common (and what surprises you). Each one takes a few minutes. A shared timeline Every answer is kept on a private timeline that only you and your partner can see. Scroll back to anniversaries, hard weeks, the question you both surprised yourselves on. Streaks that grow with you Small celebrations as your habit becomes a rhythm: one week, one month, one year. Skip a day and your streak survives one freeze per month. Closer Premium Go deeper with guided journeys — multi-day paths like Reconnect After Conflict and Know Each Other Deeply — plus early access to new content. Premium is $9.99/month or $59.99/year, each with a 7-day free trial, and one subscription unlocks Premium for both partners. What we don't do No ads. No data sold or shared. No AI trained on your conversations. We don't analyze the substance of what you write. Your answers stay between you and your partner. For every kind of couple Long-distance. Just moved in together. Married fifteen years. Closer works the same — the daily question doesn't change because of who you are. — Five minutes. Together. Every day. The small, daily way to feel closer.
