iPhone
Keep Close is a quieter kind of social app. Once a month, you write one letter about the things you loved. The book you couldn't put down, the meal you're still thinking about, the song on repeat, the moment you want to remember. Then you share it with a small circle of people who actually care.
No endless scrolling. No algorithm deciding what you see. No strangers. Just the people you chose, once a month.
HOW IT WORKS
Write your letter
Near the end of each month, the posting window opens. Recap the month in your own words and add your favorites across categories like books, movies, music, concerts, meals, places, and moments. Attach photos to the letter, or to individual favorites.
Share it with your circle
Your letter goes only to friends you've accepted. There is no public feed. You can send someone a private link to a single letter if you want to share beyond the app.
Read theirs
See what the people you love were reading, eating, listening to, and celebrating. React, reply privately or to the group, and stay close without the noise.
FEATURES
• One letter per month
• Nine favorite categories to fill in as much or as little as you like
• Up to nine photos per letter, arranged in layouts you choose and flipped through like a photo book
• A photo for each individual favorite
• Seasonal letter themes: snowfall in December, fireworks in July, pumpkins in October
• Six app color themes, including a dark mode, synced across your devices
• Year in Review — every letter you've written, summarized
• Push notifications when someone in your circle shares
• Posting streaks to help the habit stick
• Private by design: no public profiles, no ads, no data selling
WHY MONTHLY
Most social apps reward posting constantly. Keep Close does the opposite. This app is meant to disappear while you actually live. The posting window makes it so you know you are not missing out if you only check it once to post and once when the window is closed to see your feed. A month gives you something worth saying, and a small audience means you can actually say it. A year in, you'll have twelve letters that tell you exactly what your year was made of.
Free to use. Made for the handful of people you'd want to write a letter to.
