There are good couples apps out there, and the right one depends on what you two want. We make TwoTrue, so read this knowing that: every fact about another app comes from its own pages, and we say plainly what each one does well.
Honest answers, revealed together
You each answer the same question alone. Nothing is shown until you’ve both answered — so you say what’s true, not what’s safe.
A coach that reflects on what you BOTH revealed
After each reveal, each of you gets a private reflection — where you meet, where you differ, what it might mean, one small thing to try — in the coaching voice you choose, drawing on named relationship research and established counseling approaches.
Questions that build on your last answers
The next question is chosen for what you two just revealed and what you’re working on, and deepens only as fast as the more careful of you.
Notes only your coach reads
Tell your coach what you’re not ready to say out loud. Its feedback to you fits better; your partner never sees, hears of or gets hints from it.
Our staff tools can’t show your answers — enforced in code
Every read of what you write passes one privacy check in our code; admin tools show only counts and statuses; and automated privacy tests must pass before any release ships.
Guided journeys toward a goal you choose
Multi-week paths on one focus — how you each feel loved, what you value, and more — with a short reading and a question or small step each day, a check-in at each phase, and a before-and-after measure so you can see what changed.
A private space to understand yourself
More than solo tips: your own space for discovering how your inner world works — what you need, how you react, what you value — so you can be your best self and a better partner. Questions for yourself, journeys for your own growth and, with Plus, a coach. Nothing in it is ever shared.
Repair after a hard moment, and help before a hard talk
Once you’re both calm, work through a fight step by step — each step revealed together. Before a hard conversation, your coach helps turn judgments into feelings and demands into requests.
Pause before hard words go out
See how a message might land and what you may really be feeling underneath. It never writes it for you, and what you learn is yours to share for honest feedback.
Games with honest reveals
Some games show both answers side by side; in Only the Matches, just what you BOTH said yes to is ever shown — so a “no” never stings.
Our dates, planned together — and for each other
Birthdays, anniversaries and holidays with heads-up reminders; plans you make together; private gift ideas only you can see; and last year’s plan to build on.
Experiments that become your playbook
Try one small change for a week. You each say privately how it went; what you both say helped is kept in a playbook of what works for the two of you.
Price for the two of you
One plan covers you both.
