What to check in a couples journal app

Before downloading anything, run through these questions on the App Store listing:

• Both partners write: Can each person add entries independently, or does only one person control the journal?
• Privacy: Are entries visible only to the two of you, or does the app share data more broadly?
• Platform: Is it available on the phones you both actually use — iOS and Android, or one only?
• Offline access: Can you read past entries without a connection, or does everything live in the cloud?
• Media support: Does it accept photos, voice notes, or video alongside text?
• Prompts: Does it offer guided questions, or is it a blank page?
• Export: Can you save or download your entries if you ever leave the app?
• Cost: Is there a free tier, a one-time purchase, or a recurring subscription?

Verify each of these directly in the app's listing before you commit.

How Couple App fits

Couple App is not described as a journal app. If journaling matters most to you, check the listings above to find one that fits.

What Couple App offers is a shared space built around daily interaction. It's free to download from the App Store and runs on iPhone and iPad. Android isn't supported yet. Both partners download it on their own phones.

Here's what's actually in it:

• Daily questions: A new question arrives each day. Some ask for a photo or voice note in response. Others are this-or-that picks where you each choose between two options.
• Daily Snap: Daily Snap photo prompts.
• Canvas: A shared drawing space where you and your partner draw in real time together. There's also a Canvas widget you can add to your Home Screen.
• Nudges: Four nudges — Send Love, I'm in the Mood, I Need Attention, and Teleport Here — which arrive as notifications on your partner's phone.
• Widgets: Six Home Screen widgets — Canvas, Distance, Together For, Daily Conversation, Streak, and Nudges.
• Games: Three two-player games — Connect Four, Air Hockey, and Battleship — each played on each partner's own phone rather than passing a device back and forth.
• Intimacy Lab: A deck of dares and positions. You each swipe yes, no, or maybe on each one. You only see a match when both of you say yes to the same thing.
