What is Lovly?
Lovly is a free iPhone app for couples: you and your partner share one drawing canvas, and whatever one of you draws appears on the other’s Lock Screen widget.
It is for couples who want to stay close in small ways during the day — across town or across time zones — without another chat thread to keep up with. Alongside the canvas there are one-tap mood check-ins, a daily doodle prompt, mini love notes, gifts that stay wrapped until the day, and a counter of your days together.

How Lovly works
From your fingertip to their Lock Screen.
- 01
You draw
Open the shared canvas and draw anything — a heart, their name, the view from your window.
- 02
You tap Send
One tap. No chat thread, no feed, no read receipts to worry about.
- 03
It’s on their Lock Screen
Their Lovly widget updates. They see it the next time they pick up their phone, without opening anything.
Features
Small signals, all day long.
The canvas is the heart of it. Everything else is built for the same thing: letting them know you thought of them, without starting a conversation you both have to keep up.
Today’s doodle
One prompt a day, for both of you.
“Draw your mood as weather.” Theirs stays locked until you have drawn yours.
Their sky
Know when it’s 3 a.m. where they are.
Their city, their local time and whether they are probably asleep — made for long distance.
Moods
How they feel, in one tap.
Set your mood and see theirs. When they match, Lovly makes a small fuss about it.
Moments
A love tree that grows with you.
Every memory you save together becomes a leaf on a tree that grows from a sapling as you add more.
Us
Days together, and the days ahead.
A days-together counter, countdowns to your next trip, love notes and time capsules.
What Lovly will never do
No ads. No streaks. No guilt. Nothing you draw is ever deleted to push you into an upgrade — it’s just a quiet place for two.
No ads
Not one, anywhere. Lovly is paid for by Lovly+, not by your attention.
No streaks
Miss a day or a week. Nothing breaks, nothing resets, no guilt notification at 11 p.m.
Your drawing is safe
Every stroke saves as you go. Close the app mid-drawing and it is still there.
Long distance
Eight time zones, one glance away.
When one of you is falling asleep as the other wakes up, a message can feel like an interruption. A drawing on the Lock Screen does not. Leave one before bed and it is the first thing they see in the morning — and Lovly shows their city and local time, so you know when they are probably asleep.

What is Lovly?
Lovly is a free iPhone app for couples: you and your partner share one drawing canvas, and whatever one of you draws appears on the other’s Lock Screen widget. It also has mood check-ins, a daily doodle prompt, mini love notes, countdowns and a days-together counter. There are no ads and no streaks.
How does a drawing get onto my partner’s Lock Screen?
You draw on the shared canvas in Lovly and tap Send. Your partner’s Lovly Lock Screen widget updates with your drawing, so they see it the next time they pick up their phone — without opening the app.
Is Lovly free?
Yes. Drawing, sending to the Lock Screen, widgets, moods, notes and today’s doodle are free. Lovly+ adds your full canvas history, secret messages, unlimited memories, a shared calendar and themes for $7.99 a month, $44.99 a year (with a 7-day free trial) or $89.99 once, in the US.
Do both partners need to pay for Lovly+?
No. One Lovly+ purchase unlocks it for the couple — both of you get every Lovly+ feature.
Does Lovly work for long-distance relationships?
Yes, it was built for them. Drawings, moods and notes sync over the internet, so distance does not matter, and Lovly shows your partner’s local time and city so you can see when they are probably asleep.
Does Lovly have streaks?
No. There is no streak to lose and no guilt notification. Miss a day or a week and nothing resets.
Is Lovly on Android?
Not yet. Lovly is iPhone-only and needs iOS 17 or later on both phones, because it is built on Apple’s Lock Screen widgets.
How do I pair with my partner?
One of you taps “I’m here first” and sends the invite link, which carries an 8-character code. The other installs Lovly and taps “They already invited me”, or simply opens the link. Pairing takes under a minute.
Is what we draw private?
Yes. Your canvas, moods and notes are shared only with your partner. If you delete your account, what you shared is deleted from Lovly’s servers.
Draw them something tonight.
Free on iPhone. Pair in under a minute, and your first drawing can be on their Lock Screen before they put the kettle on.
