SharedOrbit
Founding couples: your first year is free

Stay close,
no matter the distance.

SharedOrbit is a private app for long-distance couples — a shared countdown, a daily question, photos and little rituals that keep two people connected across any distance or time zone.

Start in seconds — no sign-up needed yet. Just the two of you.

  • Private by design

  • Built by an LDR couple

Together again in

Lisbon, finally

days
hours
minutes
seconds

The first thing you both see, ticking down side by side.

A real look at your shared countdown — live, right now.

Two places, one orbit

New York—:—daytime
3,370 mi
Lisbon—:—daytime

Under the same sky, in two time zones — SharedOrbit shows your partner's local time, so far apart never feels quite so far.

Everything a long-distance relationship needs, in one place

Built for couples who are apart — whether that's a different city, country, or schedule.

Countdown to the next reunion

A shared countdown to the day you're together again — the first thing you both see, ticking down side by side.

A daily question, just for two

One gentle prompt a day. You each answer, then see each other's — a tiny ritual that keeps you talking across the distance.

Under the same sky

See your partner's local time and a snapshot of their sky, so far-apart time zones feel a little closer.

Photos & memories

A private timeline of your moments and a shared photo wall — no public feeds, no strangers, only the two of you.

Gentle nudges

Send a 'thinking of you,' and get a soft notification when your person adds something — even with the app closed.

Open-when notes & more

Open-when letters, a bucket list, a shared playlist, journals and a streak garden you grow together.

Private by design

What happens between you two, stays between you two

You're trusting us with the most personal thing there is. We built SharedOrbit so that trust never has to be a leap — and wrote every promise below into the product itself.

A space only two people can enter

Every space is locked to its couple at the database level. There is no way to browse, search, or stumble into anyone else's.

Your photos stay yours

Photos and messages travel encrypted and are never reviewed by our team, shown in any feed, shared with third parties, or sold.

Leave with everything, anytime

Delete your account in one tap and everything you've added goes with it. No dark patterns, no retention tricks.

  • No ads
  • No trackers
  • No public profiles
  • No data sold
  • No AI training on your content

Don't take our word for it — read the Privacy Policy. It's short, and it's written in plain English.

Together in three steps

  1. 01

    Create your space

    Set your reunion countdown and write a first open-when letter in under a minute. No sign-up needed to start.

  2. 02

    Invite your partner

    Share one private link. They join your space — and only ever the two of you are inside it.

  3. 03

    Stay close every day

    Answer the daily question, watch the countdown, leave notes and photos. Small rituals, every day apart.

“I'm in a long-distance relationship myself. I tried every app out there and nothing really fit — so I built the one my partner and I actually wanted. We use it every day, and every promise on this page is one I'd want kept for us too.”

The questions couples ask first

Is our space really private?

Yes. Every space is locked to its couple at the database level with row-level security — there is no way for another user to browse, search or stumble into it. There are no public profiles or feeds anywhere in the app.

Can anyone at SharedOrbit see our photos and messages?

No. Your content is never reviewed by our team, shown in any feed, shared with third parties, sold, or used to train AI models. Photos and messages travel encrypted and are visible only to you and your partner.

Is SharedOrbit free?

Yes — SharedOrbit is free to use today, and founding couples get their first year free. If we ever introduce paid plans, we'll announce it clearly in advance and you'll never be charged silently.

What happens if we break up?

You can leave the shared space from your Account page at any time, or delete your account entirely — which permanently removes everything you added. No retention tricks, no guilt screens.
