Every 2 hours, a window opens. You take a photo. Your partner takes a photo. Only the two of you ever see them. Miss the window? Your tab grows. Show up every day? Your streak grows. No excuses, no "I forgot" — Us keeps score. HOW IT WORKS Check-in windows open throughout the day. You both have 30 minutes to snap a photo penalty-free. After that, every missed minute counts against you. When the window closes, it's gone. WHAT YOU GET · 2-hour check-in windows from morning to night · Daily photo prompts — "something soft," "your view right now" · Private timeline of every moment you've shared · Streak counter — see how many days you've both shown up · Penalty tab — missed check-ins have real consequences · Doodles, reactions, and comments on each other's photos · Home Screen widget — see your partner's last photo without opening the app · Memories calendar — scroll back through months of real moments NO "WYD?" NEEDED Glance at the widget on your Home Screen. There's your partner — mid-coffee, walking the dog, stuck in traffic. You don't need to text "what are you doing?" anymore. You already know. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No followers. No feed. No algorithm. Your photos are never shown to anyone else, never used for ads, never sold. This space belongs to two people and no one else. Us isn't another couples app. It's a daily habit that proves you're paying attention. HOW IT WORKS Every two hours, a new window opens. Snap a photo of whatever you’re doing — your morning coffee, your messy desk, the sunset from your commute. Add a caption. That’s it. Your partner gets to see your world, and you get to see theirs. MADE FOR REAL COUPLES • Private by design — only you and your partner can see your photos • 2-hour check-in windows keep things spontaneous and real • Draw on each other’s photos with doodles and reactions • Crown your favorite moments together • No ads, no algorithms, no distractions WHY COUPLES LOVE IT Long distance or living together — us helps you feel closer. It’s the little moments that keep a relationship strong: what you ate for lunch, the face you make when you’re bored at work, the view from your window right now. It’s not about perfect photos. It’s about being present in each other’s day. Download us on your iPhone and make every moment count.

Miles apart? Same Moon brings your partner to your Home Screen. “No matter how far apart we are, we look at the same moon.” • Partner's photo — appears on your widget the moment they send it. • Their local time — “Their time: 03:14” — who's asleep, who's awake, at a glance. • Messaging — love notes and photos, chat-style. • Mood — share a status like “saying goodnight”; tap to change yours. • The distance between you — shown gently (only the distance, never raw location). • Days together & anniversary. • Countdown to your next meeting — live in the Dynamic Island, counting down day by day. • Tonight's moon phase — the one you both see. • A “thinking of you” tap — let them know they're on your mind. • Notifications — when your partner sends a message, photo, or nudge, you'll know instantly, even with the app closed. Just the two of you. No feed, no followers — your data stays in a secure cloud, private to the two of you. Built for long-distance love. Different skies, same moon.
