Aperi is now on the App Store

Key Takeaways

Aperi launched on the iOS App Store. The native app adds push notifications, home screen widgets, and native performance on top of everything the web app already does. Your account, streaks, and history sync across both. Android is next.

Aperi is available on the App Store.

We started as a web app because we wanted to move fast and get the core experience right before investing in native platforms. That bet paid off. The personalization engine, double-blind reveal, depth progression, solo mode, voice memos -- all of it was built and refined on the web first.

Now it runs natively on your iPhone.

What the native app adds

Everything from the web app carries over. Same account, same streaks, same history. The native layer adds three things that the browser couldn't do well:

Push notifications. A daily reminder when your question is ready. Your partner answered? You'll know. No more checking the app manually or relying on email nudges. This was the most requested feature since launch, and the reason most people wanted a native app in the first place.

Home screen widgets. A small widget shows your current streak. A medium widget shows today's question right on your home screen. Glanceable, no need to open the app to see what's waiting.

Native performance. Smoother animations, faster transitions, instant haptic feedback when you tap. The web app was never slow, but native feels different in a way that's hard to describe until you use it. The app loads instantly, scrolls without jank, and respects your system dark mode.

What hasn't changed

The core experience is identical. One question per day. Both partners answer before either sees the other's response. The AI learns what works for your relationship and adjusts over time. Questions get deeper as your comfort grows.

If you've been using Aperi on the web, you don't need to start over. Log in with the same account and everything is there.

Pricing is the same too: $7.99/month or $47.99/year, with one free question per day on the free tier.

What's next

Android is the obvious next step. If you're on Android and want to know when it's ready, the web app works great on mobile browsers in the meantime, and your account will carry over when the native app launches.

We're also working on interactive widgets that let you answer the daily question directly from your home screen, without opening the app. And richer notifications that show a preview of the question in the notification itself.

The web app isn't going anywhere. It remains the easiest way to try Aperi without installing anything, and it's where new features land first.
