What Couple Tools doesA private space for the two of you: a shared feed, chat, tasks, events and notes, synced between both phones, with privacy when something is just for you.
Tasks and listsYour shared to-do list: add tasks, give them to yourself or your partner, set due dates, and keep them in lists so nobody wonders who was doing what.
ChatPrivate messaging between the two of you, with no ads or algorithms: send messages and photos, reply, react and mention things you’ve saved.
Ways couples use Couple ToolsWorked examples that combine tasks, events, notes and chat: the weekly shop, planning a party, a typical week, a trip, and keeping up with family and friends.
