About Lingered Still
For everything you mean to say — and everything you never will. Lingered is the private place for the messages on your mind. The thank-you you keep meaning to send. The follow-up you owe a friend. The apology you're still working up to. The things you'd tell someone if the timing were right, if the courage were there, or if it even mattered anymore. Write it down. Let it sit. Send it when you're ready — or don't. That's the point. **Two ways to use it** - **Drafts you'll actually send.** A reminder to text mom. A reply you keep forgetting. The thank-you on your mental to-do list. Lingered holds them and hands off to SMS, iMessage, WhatsApp, Telegram, or Share in one tap. - **Words you carry.** The unsent letters. The things left unsaid. Write them out, see what they mean, decide what happens next — without ever pressing send. **Smart intent detection** Type "remind me tomorrow at 3pm to follow up" and Lingered detects it as you type. Tap the suggestion to apply (Pro), or set a reminder manually any time. Same for phrases like "burn this in a week". **AI emotion detection** As you type, Lingered quietly identifies what you're feeling — from love and gratitude to grief, anger, and regret. On-device AI model that understands 28 emotions. Nothing leaves your phone. **Emotional insights** See patterns in what you write. Lingered tracks your emotional trends over time, shows who you write to most, and offers gentle reflections on what your words might mean. A weekly digest summarizes your emotional week every Sunday. **Free tier** - Write, save, edit, and delete unsent messages - Hand off your first 5 messages via SMS, iMessage, WhatsApp, Telegram, or Share - On-device AI detects 28 emotions as you type — adjust before sending - English, Spanish, and Filipino — emotion detection included - Emotional insights, trends, and weekly digest - Burn now or schedule for 1 week / 1 month / 3 months / 1 year - Full-text search across all messages and recipients - Export messages as text (CSV/JSON) - Two themes: Warm (default) and Midnight (dark) - Biometric lock: Face ID, Touch ID, or fingerprint - Home screen widget with message count and a writing prompt - 20 writing prompts to help start when words feel stuck **Lingered Pro (one-time unlock)** Get more from your practice with a single purchase, yours forever: - Unlimited sends across SMS, iMessage, WhatsApp, Telegram, and Share - Per-message reminders, one-time or recurring monthly - Custom burn dates — pick any future date and time - One-tap apply on detected reminder and burn suggestions - Three additional themes: Clean, Sage, and Dusk - Polished PDF exports — keepsake-quality archives of your threads One purchase. Yours forever. No subscription. **Privacy & polish** - 100% on-device — no accounts, no cloud, no tracking - Biometric lock built in - Dynamic Type, VoiceOver, TalkBack, Reduce Motion — WCAG-AA contrast throughout **Your words. Your pace. Your decision.**
