LoveClock counts every day you've been together, with a glowing ring and floating hearts, right on your iPhone. Set the day you became a couple and you're in, in under a minute. No account, no sign-up. ■ Count every day together • A live "together" counter from the day you met. Tap it to see your time in days, weeks, months, or the full breakdown. • Your next anniversary, named by its traditional material: paper, crystal, gold, diamond… • Hearts bubble up around the ring as a big day gets close. ■ Our Story • Add every moment that matters: when you met, got engaged, anything else. Free, and there's no limit. • Tap a moment to count it in days, weeks, months or years, and give it its own emoji. • Turn any moment into a shareable card, colors and all. ■ Pair with your partner • Share a code or a link and see the same countdown on both phones. • Dates, milestones, reunions and plans stay matched, end to end encrypted. • With the app open on both phones, edits appear on your partner's screen in a blink. • Keep some plans just for you. Share the rest with a tap, and change your mind anytime. • No account. The pairing code never leaves your phones, and our server only ever stores scrambled data it cannot read. ■ Little moments, together • A heart on the Partner tab fills as you nudge each other through the day. No streaks, no pressure. • Nudge notes fade after a while. Long-press one you love to keep it; your partner sees that you kept it. • Send an animated flower with a personal note. It lands in a vase you fill together. The rose is free; Premium adds five more. • Share today's mood or food craving and see your partner's. When you match, you'll both know (Premium). • Send a snap: a photo that fades about 20 minutes after your partner opens it, encrypted end to end. Long-press to keep one, and your partner is told you did. Premium to send, free to receive. • Say it out loud: a 15-second voice note that fades about 20 minutes after your partner plays it, encrypted end to end. Keep the ones you love. Premium to send, free to receive. • Everything you send tells you it went out; anything that doesn't make it waits on the Partner tab for another try. • Keep it private: lock the Partner tab behind Face ID or your passcode (Premium). ■ Count down to what's next • Reunion countdowns for long-distance love, time-zone aware. • Plans for everything ahead: trips, concerts, the big move, each with its own emoji. ■ Widgets, and LoveClock in iMessage • A smart Home Screen widget that surfaces the date that matters most, not just the soonest one. • Lock Screen widgets: your next date at a glance, without unlocking. • Send countdown cards and stickers straight from Messages, including a card that shows how long you've been together. ■ Private by design • Solo, everything stays on your device: no account, no ads, no tracking. • Paired, your data is end to end encrypted. We cannot read it. • If you like, back up your dates, moments and kept photos, notes and voice notes to your own iCloud, sealed before they leave your phone — we never see them. A new iPhone brings it all back in one tap. • No location access, ever. Free to start, and the heart of the app is free forever: the counter, pairing, anniversaries, reminders, Our Story, iCloud backup and a widget. Optional Premium (a 7-day free trial on the monthly plan, or a one-time lifetime unlock) adds reunion countdowns, plans, every theme world, animated shares, the nudge that rains a little heart on your partner's screen, the full flower catalog, mood sharing, disappearing snaps, voice notes, and the Partner tab lock. While you're paired, one Premium covers you both. LoveClock speaks English, Polish, Chinese (Simplified), Japanese, Korean, Russian, German, Spanish and French. Set one date and see your story.
