Our Little Thing

For couples, best friends and family

Better questions than “how was your day?”

The app for couples, friends and family with one good question a day. You each answer in private, then reveal together.

Free to start. No sign-up needed.

Try it with three real questions from the app

Romantic · Hot Seat

What sound effect should play when I enter a room?

You

A tiny trumpet. You arrive like a one-person parade.

Them

The fridge door opening. You always go there first.

Family · Family Stories

What music was always playing when you were young?

You

The kitchen radio on Sunday, and Grandma singing louder than it.

Them

Whatever your uncle played in the car. I still know every word.

Friendship · Play

What would our group chat be called if it were honest?

You

Voice Notes Over Five Minutes Long.

Them

We Should Really Plan Something.

The answers are examples. In the app, nothing shows until you’ve both replied.

A laughing couple on a bench, each holding a mug
Six years in, and still more to find out.
An older couple sharing a laugh over a little card and two cups of tea
Forty years of dinners, and one more story.
A family of four laughing on a big floor cushion as they play a card game
Sunday afternoon. The kids ask the questions.

An ordinary Tuesday

You love them. You just talk about the bills.

  1. 7:42 amCan you grab milk on the way home?
  2. 12:15 pmDid the water bill go out?
  3. 5:58 pmRunning late. Eat without me.
  4. 10:47 pmNight. Love you.

Nothing is wrong. Life got busy, and the busy stuff took over the talking. One good question a night gives you back the rest.

Not just for couples. For your people.

Pick romantic, friendship or family when you set up. Every question, game and idea follows your lane, so a romantic question never lands on your mum.

Kept as you go

The story of you two, a day at a time.

Answers you keep, notes, photos and dates add up to something only the two of you have. All of it is free, and it lives on your phone.

The photo, and why it mattered.

A private photo timeline, each with a date and a caption. Your photos never leave your phone.

It all lands in Our Story.

A timeline of the days you connected, a weekly recap, and small celebrations at 3, 7, 14, 30, 60 and 100 days. Plus the everyday bits: a check-in when you’re running low, a shared to-do list, and their favourites and gift ideas, saved for next time.

Questions, answered.

What is Our Little Thing?

An app for couples, best friends and family. Each day you and your person answer the same question in private, then reveal your answers together. Inside are 879 questions in 32 packs, room for 200 of your own with Premium, 47 games, 150 date ideas, love notes, special dates and photo memories.

Can my partner see my answer early?

No. Answers stay hidden until you've both answered, then you reveal them together.

Is it only for couples?

No. When you set up, pick a romantic, friendship or family lane. Each lane has its own question packs and games, so romantic questions never reach a friend or a family member. Teens can join friendship and family spaces. Romantic spaces are for two adults.

Can I use it with more than one person?

Yes. Free includes one private space. Premium gives you up to five, each with a different person and its own lane, so your partner, your best friend and your mum can each have their own.

Do we need two phones?

No. It works on one phone: answer, hand it over, then reveal together. Pairing two phones is optional and needs Premium on the phone that sends the invite. Joining an invite is free.

What games are in the app?

47 games in all, with 20 rounds each. Seven work in every lane, like This or That, Same Page, Truth Reveal, Mind Reader and Doodle Decode. The romantic lane adds 16 more, and friends and family add 12 each. Same Page is free, and This or That and Truth Reveal have 3 free rounds a day.

Is it good for long-distance relationships?

Yes. With two paired phones you answer from wherever you are and reveal once you've both replied. There's a private chat, and 13 of the 150 date ideas are made for being apart, like cooking the same recipe on a call.

What kind of date ideas are there?

150 ideas you can filter by at home, outside, food, creative, active, low cost and apart. Turn any idea into a plan with a mood, time, budget, place, backup plan and checklist. 8 ideas are free and Premium opens all 150.

How much is Premium?

$6.99 a month or $39.99 a year. It opens every question pack, all 150 date ideas, all 47 games, new questions of your own, unlimited photo memories and tools history, private surprise love notes, two-phone pairing with private chat, up to five spaces and 8 extra avatars. One subscription covers both of you. Cancel any time in your App Store or Google Play settings.

Where are our answers kept?

On your phone. If you pair two phones, what you share is locked on your phone before it is sent, so only the two of you can open it. Pair sync does not send memory photos. A password-protected backup you choose to export includes them and can help you move to a new phone.

Can I use it on my computer?

Yes. Our Little Thing also comes as a desktop version that runs in your web browser, with nothing to install. Tap “Use it on your computer” at the top of this page.

Is this relationship therapy?

No. It's a gentle tool for connection, not counselling. Please seek qualified help when you need it.

One question, two answers, one reveal. For the people you love most. Free to start.
