An app for two people
Us pairs you with one person. Leave them a note of a hundred characters, no more, and it lands on their home screen. No feed, no thread, no typing dots.
Go on, write to Mira. Press send and watch their phone.
Sent. It's on their home screen.

That is the whole sign-up. No email, no password, nothing to confirm.
One of you gets a code like K3M-9QX. The other types it in.
You are paired. The widget does the rest, and opening Us is optional.
All of it one screen deep, and it looks like it belongs on whichever phone it lands on. Switch the preview and see.
Write the one thing you wanted to say. It replaces whatever was there before, so there is never anything to catch up on.

Some things are easier shown. Take one there and then, or pick one from your roll. It becomes the widget, edge to edge, with your words along the bottom.

A photo note, iPhone home screen
A square of paper and a real set of tools. Scribble something and it goes exactly the way a photo does, straight onto their widget.

A drawing, iPhone home screen
Some nights you do not want to go looking for the words. One is fast asleep, one is already running towards you, one is holding a heart up and will not put it down. Pick it and it goes.

A sticker, iPhone home screen
Write it now and set the hour it lands. It waits on our side, sealed, and arrives on their home screen at the time you chose - good luck before an exam, happy birthday at seven, good morning while you are still asleep.

The same question lands for both of you. You answer without seeing theirs, they answer without seeing yours, and the second answer opens them both at once. No score, no winner - just the thing you would never have thought to ask.

Today's question, both answers in
Dots & Boxes, Tic-Tac-Toe and Memory, played against the one person you are paired with. Both phones watch the same board, so a line they draw appears under your thumb a moment later. One game at a time, finished or resigned before the next one starts - this is a board, not a shelf.

Pick the font and the color before you send, and that is how it is drawn on their phone too. The mark works the other way round: you choose one for them, and only you ever see it.

End-to-end encrypted
The key is worked out on your two phones, from your private half and their public one, and it is never sent anywhere. What reaches us is a sealed envelope.
The key lives only on your phones, so nobody can restore it for you, us included.

Early reviews, unedited, posted with permission. No one was paid for them.
This app feels safe and fun to use and is very personal, with ease of communication without losing much time chatting with your closed ones.
Really loved the idea of staying connected through little notes, doodles and photos right on each other's home screen. The no-sign-in and privacy-first approach makes it feel even more secure and personal.
I liked the app very much. The UI is well designed and smooth, and so is the idea of making widgets on the screen for the connected ones.
I genuinely like the idea behind this. The fact that it's just between two people makes it feel simple and personal. It's especially useful for sharing something important or urgent without all the distractions of a regular messaging app. It's a really cute and thoughtful concept.
Start free and keep the app forever. The paid plan takes the limits off: every font and color, every sticker set, as many photos and drawings as you like, saving them to your phone, ten scheduled notes every day instead of ten ever, and your whole history. Whichever of you pays, both phones get it.
Everything you need to write to one person, every day, for nothing.
Free
for both of you, with no end date
No email, no password, no card.
Everything in Us, with the limits taken off. One payment covers both phones.

No. An account holds exactly one pairing, and that is the shape of the whole product. To pair with someone else, disconnect first.
No. No read receipts, no delivery ticks, no way to tell whether they looked. That is deliberate: a note you owe a reply to is a message, and this is not a messenger.
Yes. Take one there and then, or pick a single picture from your library. Us never gets the library itself, only the one you chose, resized and sealed on your phone before it goes.
No. A note is encrypted on your phone and reaches us as a sealed envelope. The key is worked out on your two phones, never sent to us, and we hold nothing that opens what we store.
It deletes the account itself: your sessions, your devices and the shared history, everywhere, and it disconnects your partner. It asks twice, because there is no sign-in and no backup, so there is no way back in once it is gone.
Download it, type your name, and read six characters out loud to the person you had in mind. There is no step after that.
Free to start. No email, no password, no card.
