About HourStory - Couples Journal
Hourstory is the couples app for days spent apart. Every hour, share one small moment (a photo, a short video, a voice note or a few words) and let your partner watch your day unfold. "How was your day?" "Fine. Busy." By evening the details have faded. Hourstory keeps the small things from fading, so your partner is there for the coffee at 8am, the rain at noon and the quiet moment at 3pm when you thought of them. MADE FOR LONG DISTANCE AND BUSY DAYS APART Different cities, different time zones or just different offices: Hourstory gives you a daily rhythm of staying close. No pressure to perform, and no endless texting to explain your day. Just one small moment, every hour. SHARE YOUR DAY, ONE HOUR AT A TIME • A gentle hourly nudge asks: what's around you right now? • Capture a photo, 5-second video, voice note or short written note • Crop, filter and add text with the built-in photo editor • Mark an hour "nothing special". A quiet hour still counts • Missed an hour? Fill it in afterward • No signal? Your moment uploads on its own when you're back online A SHARED TIMELINE FOR TWO • See your hours and your partner's side by side • Every moment keeps the hour it happened for them, so it works across time zones • Watch their day live, or catch up with an end-of-day story • Heart a moment, reply to it, send a voice message or tap "thinking of you" • One private chat, just the two of you RELIVE EVERY DAY TOGETHER • Memories: every ordinary day, one tap away, like a photo diary you share • Watch any day play back as a short film • Weekly, monthly and yearly film recaps • Pin the moments worth keeping • Streaks that reward showing up SEE YOUR RHYTHM • Your stats: your peak hour, your busiest weekday, your streaks • Sync: see where your days overlap, hour by hour PRIVATE AND PERSONAL • Private mode: moments only you can see, even from your partner • Pick your own colors, one for you and one for them, and a background that feels like home • Export your moments any time, and delete your account whenever you like WHO IS HOURSTORY FOR? • Long distance couples • Partners in different time zones or on different schedules • Couples who travel for work, study abroad or work shifts • Any boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife or partner who wants to share the little things HOURSTORY PREMIUM Hourstory is free to download.

What’s new
Version 1.1.6 · Updated October 23, 2026
Major Bug fixes. Sharing your location is now clearer and easier to fix. If location access is off, a banner at the top of Today tells you your partner can't see where you are, and one tap turns it back on. HourStory now asks for permission when it needs to, instead of sending you to Settings to find a switch that isn't there yet. You can also choose whether "Where you both are" sits at the top of Today or at the bottom, and change it any time. Plus a handful of smaller fixes.
