DayKindDayKind for iPhone and Apple Watch
See your days.
Stay close.
One touch. A little warmth. No words needed.
DayKind is a private journal with one quiet extra: invite the person who matters and send a Pulse with a single tap. It lands on their Home Screen widget and Apple Watch — no chat, no photos, no pressure to reply.
Free. One connection included.
English only · iOS 17 or later.
How Link works
Three quiet steps.
Made for couples and close people living apart. No feed, no threads, nothing to keep up with.
Invite one person
Share a private link or a short code. It expires, works once, and connects exactly one person. Your contacts never leave your phone.
One touch sends a Pulse
Tap the heart in the app, on a Home Screen widget, or from your wrist. A Pulse is a simple sign that you are thinking of them — nothing more to write.
It lands on their widget and Watch
Their heart warms up on the Home Screen and Apple Watch. No timestamps, no online status, no read receipts. Quiet hours keep it from waking anyone.
The private journal
Your day stays yours.
Once a day, choose Up, Steady, or Down. Add a factor or a note if you like. That is the whole ritual.
- A visual calendar shows the shape of your month.
- Gentle weekly and monthly insights — no scores, no streaks to protect.
- Share a week or month as an image that never includes your notes.
- Everything is stored on your iPhone. Your journal is never sent to the person you are linked with.
What stays out
Closeness without the noise.
DayKind is built around what it will not do.
DayKind Plus
More ways to keep warmth close.
An optional annual subscription. The price is shown in the App Store.
Plus includes
- 23 hearts — give your connection its own look.
- Shared appearance: the other person sees your chosen heart even if they don't subscribe.
- Widget and Apple Watch styles that carry your heart.
- A local Warmth Map of the months you stayed in touch.
- A private Annual Review, with a preview of exactly what you share.
Always free
One connection, Pulse, and the whole journal — calendar, insights, notes and sharing — stay free without Plus.
Plus never unlocks your journal for another person.
Apple Watch
Right on their wrist.
A gentle tap from someone close, without lifting the phone.
Send a Pulse from the Watch app or a complication, and see warmth arrive the same way. Widgets on iPhone and Watch update on their own — just open the app once after installing.
Someone sent you here?
Install DayKind, then open their invite again.
Sign in with Apple, accept the link or enter the code, and you are connected. The first Pulse is one tap away.
