Not another messenger. A few small daily things that keep you connected — whether you live together or a thousand miles apart.
Free. No ads. Available on the App Store.
Nearer is five minutes a day that bring your attention back to each other.
What’s inside
Nothing extra: everything here takes seconds and reaches the other person right away.
“Miss you”, “thinking of you”, “hug” — your partner gets it instantly. They can nudge back or write their own.
One question a day. Answers unlock only when you've both answered — so nobody peeks first.
Anniversaries, your first date, birthdays — with a reminder ahead of time, not at the last minute.
Without opening the app, see how your partner is feeling, what they just wrote, how many days you’ve been together and how long until your next big moment.
You both need it: the app only works as a pair.
With Apple, Google or email. Half a minute.
One link to your partner — the code fills itself in, and you're paired.
Nudges, the daily question, your dates. After that it just happens.
One subscription for two — Pro covers the whole couple. Everything basic stays free forever.
Pro is purchased inside the app only — via the App Store or Google Play. It renews automatically; cancel in your store settings.
Who it's for
Not only for long distance — though that's where it helps most.
When you're in different cities or countries, it's the small things that are hard: not knowing whether they're awake yet, or still at work. Nearer shows their local time and weather, how many days are left until you meet, and a “miss you” nudge arrives in seconds — no need to invent a reason to text.
When you see each other daily, conversations quietly shrink to logistics. The daily question puts something back in them besides the shopping list. And shared dates with your day counter remind you how much is already behind you — even in a week when it feels like nothing is happening.
The first months are when you want to learn about each other, but “tell me about yourself” sounds like a job interview. The daily question and the Guess quiz turn it into a game: you both answer, then see each other's answers.
A work trip, studies, service, a move. Shared dates keep the countdown to your reunion right on the home screen, and the Letterbox lets you write letters in advance — your partner opens them on the right day, or at the right moment.
Short answers to what people ask most.
Yes. Nearer only works as a pair: one person creates an account and sends an invite, the other opens the link. On your own there is nothing to do here — everything is built for two.
The Android version already exists and is currently in open testing: you can install it from Google Play before the official release. To join, write to us via Support in the app or at support@rstyle.digital and include the Gmail address linked to your Google account — we'll add you to the testers and send the link.

The core is free forever: nudges, mood, the daily question, your day counter and the widget. Pro adds the Guess game, memories, question categories and unlimited dates. Right now every new couple gets Pro free for six months.
That's where it helps most: you see your partner's local time and weather, how many days until you meet, and a “miss you” arrives in a second. Couples who live together get plenty too — the daily question, shared dates, memories.
Only the two of you. We don't show ads and we don't sell data. You can delete your account completely in one tap, along with everything in it.
Yes. You can turn notifications off entirely, or keep only what you want: nudges from your partner, questions and reminders, dates and memories — each separately.
Yes. Distance makes the app more necessary, but the daily rituals — the question of the day, mood, shared dates, your day counter and the widget — work just the same when you see each other every evening.
Letters that don't open right away. You write a letter and choose when it opens: on a specific date, or on a condition — “open when you're sad”, “after a fight”, “when you have good news”. Until then your partner can see a letter exists but not read it. An opened letter looks like an A4 sheet in handwriting, and can be saved as a file or printed.
Yes. The widget shows how many days you've been together, your next shared date and the latest nudge from your partner — without opening the app. Add it like any iOS widget: press and hold the home screen, tap the plus and find Nearer.
Install it, send the invite — and you'll see how it works by tonight.
