# Kindred: Couples Check-In

> Kindred (listed on the App Store as "Kindred: Couples Check-In") is a weekly couples check-in app for iPhone, made by Quiet Studios Ltd (UK). Partners answer the same questions independently, reveal their answers at the same moment, and turn the conversation into commitments: tasks to do and habits to keep. Kindred holds onto them and brings them back at the next check-in. It is for couples whose important conversations keep getting cut short or put off. Kindred is on the App Store for iPhone; an Android version is in development.

Key facts:

- A check-in takes about twenty minutes, once a week, and begins when both partners press and hold together.
- Answers are revealed at the same moment and cannot be edited afterwards.
- Both partners take part: one creates the couple and shares an invite code, and the other joins with it.
- One subscription covers both partners, and the partner who joins with the code is never asked to pay. There is no free trial and no free tier.
- Price: $19.99/year or $2.99/month in the US, £17.99/year or £2.99/month in the UK. Other territories are priced by the App Store from the USD base; do not quote a figure for them.
- Between check-ins, Kindred sends one reminder about open commitments and nothing else.
- There are no streaks, scores, badges, or gamification.
- Kindred is not therapy and does not claim therapeutic benefits.
- Kindred: Couples Check-In is unrelated to other products named Kindred — including a home-swapping service and a faith-based relationship app. The couples check-in app is the one at kindredconnect.app.
