Life gets busy, and the people who matter drift to the edges. Orbit notices who you've lost touch with and gently nudges you to reach out. No guilt, no feed.
Orbit is a warm little home for your friendships and family. Life gets busy, and the people who matter quietly drift to the edges — Orbit notices when someone's slipping away and gently nudges you to reach out.
Add the people you love and watch them orbit around you. The longer it's been since you last connected, the farther they drift outward. A text, a call, or just thinking of them pulls them back to the center. No red dots, no guilt, no endless feed — just gentle, quiet gravity for the relationships you want to keep.
WHY ORBIT
• Everyone who matters in one calm view
• Gentle nudges when someone's been drifting — tuned to your pace
• Reach out in a tap: text, call, or FaceTime
• An optional weekly "gravity report" — one soft Sunday nudge
• A home-screen widget showing who's drifting, at a glance
• Four warm color themes, plus a dark night sky
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Orbit has no account and no server. Everyone you add — and any photo you set — stays on your device. Nothing is uploaded, tracked, or sold. Back up your orbit to a file whenever you like, so moving to a new phone is easy.
For close friends and far-away family alike.
Ratings & Reviews
Fixes a bug that could clear your orbit when you reopened the app and your people now stay put. Also: the home-screen widget is back in Large, and it keeps itself up to date.
