KEEP THE RECEIPTS Save specific moments as green flags or red flags so important behavior does not get blurred by time. Add a title, private note, and optional photo or screenshot to remember what actually happened. SEE THE PATTERN Review relationship timelines, recurring feelings, flag totals, and 30-day trends. Notice which connections feel supportive, draining, calm, confusing, or mixed. MADE FOR EVERY RELATIONSHIP Patterns is not just a couples app. Use it for dating, friendships, family dynamics, work relationships, or any person whose behavior affects your wellbeing. Reflect on boundaries, positive signs, and difficult patterns without forcing everything into a single diary. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account is required.
