Quickie: 1 Minute Video Calls

Quickie is the video calling app where the call ends at 1 minute. Pick a friend, say hi face-to-face, and get on with your day. Video calls became a commitment. "Do you have twenty minutes?" turned a simple hello into a meeting, so we stopped calling the people we love. Quickie fixes that with one rule: every video call is hard-capped at one minute and ends automatically for both of you. No awkward goodbyes, no "well, I should let you go," no scheduling. A Quickie is closer to a wave than a meeting. It's a fast, fun, face-to-face check-in that fits between anything. Because the call can't run long, calling becomes something you do all the time: on your walk, in line for coffee, between classes, on a lunch break. Short video calls, real faces, zero pressure. HOW IT WORKS • Tap a friend. Their phone rings like a real call — full screen, even when locked or the app is closed. • They answer, and you get 60 seconds of live one-on-one video chat with a visible countdown. • At zero, the call ends automatically for both sides. Want more? Call again — that's the fun of it. WHY A ONE-MINUTE VIDEO CALL? The time limit is the point. When a video call costs a minute instead of an hour, there's no pressure to "have something to say." You call to show the dog, the sunset, the haircut, the reaction. You call your best friend, your mom, your group chat crush, your long-distance people — daily, because it's easy. Quickie makes video calling spontaneous again: quick calls, quick catch-ups, quick hellos. FIND YOUR FRIENDS INSTANTLY Quickie uses phone numbers, so there are no usernames to hunt down. Sync your contacts and instantly see which friends already have Quickie — then call them with one tap. Friends who don't have the app yet? Send a Quickie anyway: they get a text invite to download the app and call you back. Your recent calls and most-called people are always one tap away. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Calls are never recorded — nothing is stored, ever. • Contact matching is privacy-preserving: your contacts' numbers are anonymized on your device before matching and are never uploaded or stored. • You control who can call you: anyone who has your number, or contacts only. • Block and report anyone, instantly, right from your call list. • No strangers, no random matching, no discover feed — Quickie only connects people who actually know each other. BUILT FOR REAL CALLS • Native ringing — incoming Quickies ring like a phone call, lock screen and all. • Fast connections with crisp, low-lag video, on Wi-Fi or cellular. • A clear on-screen countdown so you both know exactly how long is left. • Call history with recents and frequents, so your people are always close. • Add new friends to your contacts without leaving the app. PERFECT FOR • Long-distance friendships and relationships — stay close with daily face time. • Family check-ins that don't eat the evening. • College friends scattered across time zones. • Couples, roommates, teammates, group-chat besties. • Anyone who loves the idea of a video call more than the length of one. Quickie is the antidote to endless video meetings and dying group chats: a spontaneous, low-pressure way to actually see your friends' faces every day. Not another texting app, not another feed — just fast, fun, one-minute video calls with the people you already know. Quickie is free and for ages 13+.
