Couple Lock: Love Then Scroll
A couples app that pauses selected phone apps three times a day until both partners send each other a message.
Field notes
The proposed workflow uses local Screen Time controls on each phone, while the service coordinates whether a message has arrived; it says it cannot see which apps either partner selected. Three windows structure the day, and a missed prompt remains sendable until midnight rather than becoming an accumulating obligation. The page also describes saved message pairs, starred memories, shared streaks, and a face-down next message on the widget. The product is presented as coming to iPhone, with email notification offered in the meantime.
