Budly!
Tend your friendships
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Your friendships, growing in a garden. Plant your people, log your hangs, and Budly quietly reminds you who could use some water. No feeds, no likes — just staying close.
Budly turns your friendships into a garden you actually want to tend.
Every friend is a plant. Spend time together and they bloom. Let too
much time slip by and they get thirsty, then start to wilt — so you
always know exactly who could use a call, a text, or a coffee.
PLANT YOUR PEOPLE
Add friends by hand or import them from Contacts. Each bud gets its own
plant — its shape and color are unique to them, or pick your own in the
appearance editor.
BEDS FOR YOUR CIRCLES
Group friends into garden beds — Close Friends, Work, or any bed you
create — and see the health of each circle at a glance.
LOG YOUR HANGS
Coffee, calls, game nights: log a hang in seconds, tag everyone who was
there, and watch the whole group perk up. Your Activity tab becomes a
little journal of time well spent.
SET YOUR OWN PACE
Choose a check-in cadence per friend — weekly for your inner circle,
monthly for far-flung friends. Watering reminders arrive as a gentle
daily digest, never a guilt trip.
GREENHOUSE MODE
Life gets busy. Flip on Greenhouse Mode to pause the clock for
everyone while you catch your breath — no wilting, no ghosting.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No accounts, no feeds, no followers. Your garden lives on your device
and syncs privately through your own iCloud. Works fully offline.
Friendships grow when you show up. Budly helps you show up.
