Save the words you want to keep
Press and hold any message to quote-reply, copy, or save it as a special memory. Unsend within 10 minutes if you make a typo, and photos shared in chat automatically gather in your album.
HelloDear — a private space for two
Keep the noise out. Keep each other close.
Away from noisy group chats and work notifications. A quiet home for your late-night texts, favorite photos, and shared footprints—safely kept so you’ll never lose a memory, even when you switch phones.
No read receipts, no live tracking, and your memories don’t fade away.
Catch up when you want. Look back at your own pace.
Just the two of you
Each space is just for you and your partner
Your photos, on your next phone
Sign in with the same account on your new iPhone to pick up right where you left off.
Chat at your own pace
No read receipts or live location sharing
Places you’ve been together
Your photos’ dates and locations show where you’ve both been.
A little more to talk about
Share the small things, ask a new question, or pick up where you left off.
A small update can say a lot
Home safe, heading to bed, or missing you a little extra today. Choose a status to share with your partner, whenever you feel like it.
Keep the moments you share
Your photos, favorite messages, and dates worth remembering, together in one place.
Find places you’ve been together
HelloDear uses the dates and places in both of your photos to find where you’ve been together. Photos stay on your phone while it sorts them. Choose together which places to keep, and the spots you return to keep a count of your visits.
A new phone, the same memories
Your photos and videos are kept safe in your private space. Switch phones anytime and pick up right where you left off. If you ever delete something by accident, it stays in Recently Deleted for 30 days so you can bring it right back.
Look back on your story, one day at a time
Your first day together, birthdays, dates, and messages saved from chat are organized by date. Scroll back to revisit the moments that matter to you.
Share your day, at your own pace.
No read receipts, no online status, no live location.
No live location sharing
You decide when to say where you are. HelloDear does not track your live location or the distance between you.
No read receipts
Reading a message does not have to mean replying right away. Come back when you have time to talk.
No online status
There is no online indicator or last-seen timestamp.
A space stays with its two people
Each space stays with its original two people. Conversations and memories in a previous space stay there when you start a new one.
Room for the memories you make
Chat, Together, and special dates are free. Choose Plus when you need more room for photos and videos. One subscription covers one space, for both of you.

A few things you might be wondering
Do we both need to install HelloDear?
Yes, both of you need the app. One partner creates your shared space and sends over an invite link. The other installs HelloDear, signs in, and joins via the link or by entering your 6-digit invite code. While waiting for your partner to join, you can already drop in 3 photos and leave your first note so they have something special waiting for them.
Will my photos still be there if I get a new phone?
Yes, absolutely. Sign in with the same account on your new iPhone, and all your shared photos and videos will be right there. Just use the same sign-in method as before, since Apple and Google sign-ins are separate accounts. If you can’t find your space, email us and we’ll help you get it back.
One thing to know: your passcode lock stays on your old phone, so you’ll set a new 6-digit passcode on the new one.
Can my partner see when I’m online?
No, never. HelloDear doesn’t show online presence, last-seen timestamps, or read receipts, nor does it track your live location. We want you to enjoy sharing at your own natural pace without feeling monitored. Your partner will only see the messages you send and whatever mood you choose to share in "Right now."
What’s included with Plus?
All core HelloDear features—including chat, Together, anniversaries, and the passcode lock—are completely free. Plus is designed for couples who want to store a large collection of high-resolution photos and longer videos in their shared space. Each subscription is tied to one space, meaning only one person needs to subscribe for both of you to enjoy the expanded storage.
What happens to my content when my subscription ends?
When your subscription ends without renewal, your storage limit returns to the free 1 GB tier. If your space is using more than 1 GB, new uploads will be temporarily paused, but all your memories remain safe and accessible for viewing and downloading.
We provide a generous grace period: • First 30 days after expiry: Full access to view and download all your photos and videos. • Days 30 to 60: Your space enters a read-only locked state. Resubscribing unlocks it immediately. • After 60 days: If you confirm you no longer wish to subscribe, excess storage will be safely cleared.
As long as your storage is within the 1 GB free limit, your memories are kept safe forever and will never be locked or cleared.
Is HelloDear available on Android?
Not at the moment. We are currently dedicated to crafting the most intimate and polished experience possible on iPhone. We are actively exploring cross-platform support for the future—stay tuned!
