The modern world has taken everything and turned it into an app. Even couples wishing to improve their relationship can find an appropriate app on the market today. Below you’ll find a list of the best iPhone apps for any couple whether you have just started dating or have already married and have kids. The apps are divided into 5 groups according to couples’ needs so that you could find the solution that fits you with ease.

iPhone Apps to Know & Remember Everything

#1 REKK — Call Recorder

One of the most stressful parts of being in a relationship has to do with remembering everything your partner told you. If you’re so forgetful that your partner is getting angry, it’s better to record everything he/she tells you. This is where REKK — Call Recorder comes into play. The app records all your incoming and outgoing phone calls and converts them to text. With this tool, you’ll never forget what you should buy on the way home when their mother has a birthday, and what present they are dreaming about. Further, the app is a great tool to record your phone conversations, to listen to them together in the future and remember these happy old times.

#2 WhereAre You App

Worried if your sweetheart has reached the destination safely? Or unable to get where exactly they are located? No worries, WhereAreYou App will resolve any location-related problem. This app allows you to send a message to any of your contacts requesting their exact location. Once your couple receives your request, they’ll immediately share their location data with you. With WhereAreYou App, finding out your partner’s location is smooth and easy.

#3 SimplyUs

To stay organized and close to each other, a couple needs a reliable shared calendar. SimplyUs offers an in-built shared to-do list that will be the central hub of your relationship. Here’s a list of SimplyUs main features: easy-to-use shared calendar; shopping, to-do & grocery lists to get stuff done together; a photo-sharing feature; an in-set messenger to stay connected. With SimplyUs, couples forget about stress in their relationship and enjoy the simple life of living together.

#4 Couple Game

This app is a funny way to get to know each other better. Shortly, Couple Game makes you answer the question, “How well do you know me?” The topics vary from favorites like films and food to intimacy and romance. No matter whether you’re a married couple or just starting out dating, the app will be fantastic fun for you. The quiz works in the following way: first, your sweetheart and you answer several questions and then you try to guess each other’s answers. Couple Game also fits you in case your lover is far from you. When you feel lonely, simply open the app from 2 different destinations and start playing.

#5 PathShare

So you got stuck in a traffic jam and want to show your partner the location without playing around with your iPhone while driving. Sounds familiar? Then you’ll find PathSare helpful. With this tool, you can share your current location in one tap and even let your partner track you moving on the map in live mode. The app is pretty easy to set up even if you’re not tech-savvy and doesn’t require any account registration. What I like about the app most of all is its availability in over 180 countries. Even if you have a long-distance relationship, the app lets you share your locations with ease.

iPhone Apps to Stay Connected

#6 Between

Between is a well-know iPhone messenger just for two of you. It lets you share your emotions in a private chat, use GIF selfies and emoticons to be romantic, post your photos, videos, and notes, and check your partner’s schedules. The app also offers a free call feature and makes staying connected to your beloved one convenient and easy. Frankly speaking, the app has all features that popular IM giants like WhatsApp and Viber have. The difference is in letting you focus only on your sweetheart when using a social app. Strongly recommended.

#7 You&Me

Your significant one and you will surely get a kick out of this slick messenger. Like the previous app, this one offers you a private chat for your beloved one and you. You&Me is a perfect fit for couples who want to find a social app just for the two of them and keep in touch without getting distracted by other chats. Due to the awesome design, You&Me is an absolute delight to use. Other than an in-set messenger, the app offers a music-sharing feature and a photo booth. The app is worth a try.

#8 Kast

Kast is a fresh and new take on watching movies together. The app is installed on iPhones and lets you watch new movies even if you’re located in different countries. Further, you can text and voice chat while watching a stream. With Kast, sharing your feelings about the movie is pretty simple since it allows sharing your camera and microphone with your loved one in one tap. The app is installed on the iOS devices free of charge but to get access to all features you’ll have to fork out.

#9 FeelMe

FeelMe will be the most emotional iPhone app for couples. The app hasn’t been launched yet but the release is soon so I decided to tell you a couple of words about this award-winning app for iPhone. It turns texting to touching and helps you bridge the gap with your touch-screen device. The app is pretty easy to use. When your other half is typing a message, the app shows you where the partner is touching on your own screen. Once your fingers match up, you feel this touch and your communication gets tight and intimate. The main idea of the app is to create a more expressive digital world in our text-me-later culture. The app is a great solution for couples living apart.

#10 Happy Couple

If you’re bored with your routines, the Happy Couple app will spice things up. It’s a fun quiz for your partner and you, which may help you get closer to each other. The algorithm is similar to the one in Couple Game: both of you answer several questions and then check if your answers match. Happy Couple encourages couples from all over the world to communicate more and improve their relationship. The app is featured up by well-known media like Men’s Journal, Glamour, Marie Claire, and Bravo.
