HeartKeep is a private, gentle companion for healing after a breakup, built around one quiet idea: see how far you've come. A garden that grows as you heal, a milestone for every month, a journal for the texts you'll never send, and honest support even when it's complicated, with everything kept safely on your iPhone.

WHEN IT IS NOT OVER AND NOT OKAY
Most breakups are not a straight line. HeartKeep is the first breakup app honest about that middle.
- It's complicated mode meets you where you are, with no streaks and no judgment
- Log contact as it happens: who reached out, and how it felt after
- The Mirror shows your patterns back: contact days, quiet days, mornings after
- HeartKeep reflects, never advises. The goal is your clarity, whatever you decide
A GARDEN THAT GROWS AS YOU HEAL
- A new plant takes root for every stretch of healing you get through
- Watch each plant grow, and give each one a name
- Widgets that grow instead of count: your plant under a sky that follows the clock. A word to hold, or today's verse, as a widget too
MILESTONES THAT FEEL LIKE MILESTONES
- A marker for every month of your first year, then beyond: Day 100, one year, two years
- Save any milestone, or your whole year, as a keepsake image with your own garden in it
THE DAYS THAT HIT
Their birthday. The anniversary. The holidays you shared. HeartKeep holds these dates and is there the evening before, the morning of, and the day after.
A NEW CHAPTER, WHEN YOU'RE READY
- When you start needing the app less while feeling better, HeartKeep names it instead of pulling you back
- The journal follows you into dating again, if and when you choose
- A note to your future self, written on a good day, there for the hard nights
- Built to let you go well
A DAILY CHECK-IN, IN UNDER A MINUTE
- Slide to how you feel, then name it if you want. The words follow your mood: six at a glance, more a tap away
- On bright days it offers brighter answers
- When you're done, it says so: nothing else is asked today
- A question, sometimes: a real question at a random moment, answered from your Lock Screen. Optional
A JOURNAL THAT MEETS YOU WHERE YOU ARE
- Gentle guided questions for every stage: grief, anger, self-worth, letting go, and what comes next
- Unsent letters: say everything you never got to, without sending it
- "Text them, into the void": feels like texting them, never sends
SUPPORT FOR THE HARDEST MOMENTS
- "Before you reach out": a grounding moment for when you want to text them
- A calming 4-7-8 breathing exercise, and prep for hard dates like the anniversary
- On the darkest nights, call or text a real person from right inside the app
OPTIONAL FAITH & STRENGTH
- If it helps you, turn on a daily Bible verse and a quiet space to pray. Off by default
TRULY PRIVATE, NEVER LOST
- 100% on-device. No account, no server, no tracking, no ads
- Optional Face ID / passcode lock
- Free backup and restore, plus an automatic safety backup. Photos included
HEARTKEEP PLUS (optional, one-time)
Everything you need to heal is free. Plus is a small one-time thank-you that unlocks export: a PDF keepsake of your journal and a CSV of your check-ins. No subscription, ever.
HeartKeep is a personal self-care tool, not a substitute for professional help. If you are in crisis, please reach out to a qualified professional or a crisis line such as 988 (US).
