The game for two

Questions worth asking
each other.

Nearer is a couples game app built around one idea: a good question can change an evening. Pick a pack, pass the phone, and take turns answering things that go further than "how was your day?"

How it works

1

Pick a pack

Start with the free Getting Closer pack, or unlock more.

2

Read the card out loud

Take turns. No scores, no winners. Answer honestly and listen fully.

3

Keep going, or stop and talk

Finish the pack, or put the phone down when the conversation takes over. That is the point.

Made for where you are right now

Early days

Move past small talk and learn what actually matters to each other.

Years together

It is easy to stop asking. Nearer brings the curiosity back.

Long distance

On a call? One of you reads the card, both of you answer. No setup needed.

Date night at home

Phones usually pull you apart. For once, one of them brings you together.

Built to stay out of the way

♡

Pass-the-phone play

One card at a time, one screen between you. Simple enough to use half-asleep on the couch.

✈

Plays offline

Questions live in the app, so it works on a flight, a hike, or a bad signal day.

Nothing to sign up for

No profile and no login. Nearer does not record or send your answers anywhere.

Warm, calm design

Large cards, soft colors, and nothing flashing for your attention.

Questions

Is Nearer really free?

The Getting Closer pack is free to play. Premium packs unlock with a single one-time purchase. There is no subscription.

Is it only for couples who have been together a long time?

No. Questions work for a few weeks in or many years in. The point is to ask things you have not asked yet.

Can we play it long distance?

Yes. Get on a call, have one person read the card aloud, and both of you answer. Each of you can also install the app.

Does it need an account or an internet connection?

No account. The questions are stored in the app, so it works offline. Buying a pack or restoring a purchase needs a connection.

What happens to our answers?

Nothing. You answer out loud to each other, and the app does not record or collect them. See the Privacy Policy for exactly what the app does collect.

Is Nearer on iPhone?

Not yet. It is currently Android only.

I bought a pack and switched phones. How do I get it back?

Use Restore Purchases in the app, signed in to the same Google Play account. Still locked? Contact support.

Step away from the scroll. Start a real conversation.
