Lovewick and Paired both help couples talk more, but they lean different ways. Lovewick is a relationship organizer: questions, a big library of date ideas, reminders and a memories timeline, with a generous free plan. Paired is a daily-question app with quizzes, games and expert courses, mostly behind Premium.
Disclosure: we make Lovely, a couples app, and it appears on this page with its weak spots stated. Everything else is from each app's own site and App Store listing.

Prices from the US App Store and each app's site, checked October 21, 2026. Lovewick's site also mentions older lower prices; the App Store lists $29.99 a year.

A free plan you can live on. Lovewick promises never to take content away: more than 1,000 questions in six decks (intimacy, interests, personality, values, family and money), over 750 date and intimacy ideas you can filter by time, cost or long distance, wishlists that can hide surprises, anniversary and birthday reminders, and a timeline of memories. Lovewick Plus ($29.99 a year) adds premium question sets and removes the daily limit. Your partner can even answer without being paired.

Structure and expertise. Paired's Premium plan unlocks more than 1,000 quizzes and games, guided journeys and courses created with therapists, plus weekly insights about your answers. It is the most reviewed couples app by a wide margin and is updated constantly. The free plan is thin, though: one shared question a day. Premium costs $14.99 a month or around $75-80 a year and covers both partners.

We make Lovely, so weigh this section accordingly. It is the newest app on this page (launched August 2025, built by one developer) and it has far fewer reviews than Lovewick or Paired: 4.6 stars from 14 ratings on the US App Store. Judge it on what it does, not on popularity.
What it does: a daily question you both answer (with text, true or false, or a photo), home-screen widgets (a countdown until you meet, a live shared drawing that appears on your partner's screen, the distance between you), a shared canvas, a journal, snaps that disappear after 24 hours, and two-player games like Tic-Tac-Toe and a story you build one line at a time. It works in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French and German, and an iPhone can pair with an Android phone.
Price: free to download, and Premium is $24.99 a year or $9.99 a month with a 7-day trial. One subscription covers both of you. That makes it the cheapest yearly plan of any app compared here.
Daily questions, love widgets for your home screen, a shared canvas and games โ with your partner, even long distance.
Yes. The core app is free with more than 1,000 questions, date ideas and reminders. Lovewick Plus, at $29.99 a year or $9.99 a month, adds premium question sets and removes the daily question limit.
If you will use the quizzes, games and expert courses, yes. If you mainly want one question a day, the free plan or a cheaper app covers it.
Lovewick, with a library of over 750 date and intimacy ideas you can filter by time, cost and long distance.
All three do. Lovewick filters date ideas for long distance; Lovely adds a distance widget and a countdown until you meet on both home screens.
Lovely at $24.99 a year for both partners, then Lovewick Plus at $29.99, then Paired at around $75-80.
