About

Relationships

Features
Read full description

A calm, private companion for the people you love: partner, family, and friends, all in one place. Get a gentle nudge when it's been too long, remember what's going on in their lives, and find the words for the conversations that are hard to start. No paywall. No ads. No tracking. No accounts. What it does: - A calm "Today" that shows only who to reach out to and what's coming up, never a guilt trip - Keep what matters about each person: how you met, important dates, what they love, what to ask about next time - Note how to relate to someone: an optional personality read with plain, supportive guidance - "Have the Conversation": a quiet space to prepare for the hard, honest talks. An apology, a hurt, something you've held back, one step at a time - A "Me" manual about yourself: the things you'd want the people who love you to understand, yours to keep and yours to share - Reminders to reach out, on your terms: set a rhythm for each person, or none at all Your data stays with you. Everything you write lives on your phone. There are no accounts, and what you record about the people in your life is never sent anywhere. Keep your own encrypted backup, and share your "Me" manual only when you choose to. What it doesn't do: No paywall. No ads. No tracking. No accounts. No subscriptions. No streaks, no guilt. The whole app is the whole app, free. Send feedback: feedback@joshapproved.com
