Swooni: a relationship app for couples built around daily connection rituals

I'm one of the people building Swooni, a relationship app for couples.

We built it because most relationship apps feel either too clinical, too generic, or like homework. Swooni is meant to make relationship growth feel more practical and easier to stick with.

What makes it different:

- Based around the Gottman Magic Ratio and therapy-inspired principles.

- Small daily challenges that help couples stay connected without making it feel heavy.

- Progress, rewards, and a couples community layer that shows in-app actions without exposing private relationship details.

It's not therapy or a magic fix, but it's designed to help couples notice connection patterns and stay more intentional over time.

iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/swooni-relationship-tracker/id6557063166

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.honeyroots.app

Would love honest feedback from anyone who tries it.

Swooni: a relationship app for couples built around daily rituals, science, and rewards

Hey everyone, I'm one of the people building Swooni.

We made it because most relationship apps feel too clinical, too generic, or like homework. Swooni is our attempt to make relationship growth feel lighter, more fun, and easier to stick with.

The main idea:

- Built around the Gottman Magic Ratio and therapy-inspired principles, so couples can notice connection patterns before distance builds up.

- Turns relationship science into small daily challenges that feel playful instead of heavy.

- Adds progress, rewards, and a couples community layer, without exposing private relationship details.

It's not therapy or a magic fix, but it's designed to help couples stay more intentional and connected over time.

iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/swooni-relationship-tracker/id6557063166

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.honeyroots.app

Would love honest feedback if you try it with your partner.

[Self-Promotion] Swooni: a relationship app for couples, looking for iOS beta feedback

I’m looking for iOS feedback on Swooni, a relationship app for couples.

App Store reference only: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/swooni-relationship-tracker/id6557063166

The current public listing is just a reference point. The latest build I’m trying to learn from is invite-based/internal, so this is not a “download the public app and try it” request.

I’m looking for feedback on:

  • onboarding clarity for both partners
  • prompts and check-ins
  • notification behavior on iOS
  • confusing wording, bugs, or crashes
  • whether the app feels useful enough to return to weekly

If you’re open to testing the internal build, please comment or DM me and I’ll share the next step.

Accepted testers get 3 months free access. Highly engaged testers who give useful feedback can get lifetime access.

If you’re interested, please DM me here on Reddit with “iOS” and I’ll share the next steps for the beta invite.

We built a totally different kind of relationship app and are looking for couples to test it

[iOS/Android, Beta]

We’re looking for a small group of couples to test the newest internal version of Swooni, our relationship app.

Update: the testing page now has a Join Testing form. If you’re interested, you can either DM me here on Reddit with your platform or leave your email at: https://swooni.io/testing

The testing page also includes the iPhone and Android reference links, so it is not just a waitlist page.

Important clarification: please don’t download the public App Store or Google Play version expecting to be in this beta. Those public listings are only there for reference. The version we want feedback on is the latest internal test build, and accepted testers will be invited into that separately.

Public app listings for reference only:

Swooni is built for couples who want a more intentional way to stay connected, understand each other better, and make space for the small moments that can get lost in everyday life.

Most relationship apps we tried felt either too clinical, too cheesy, or like homework. We’re trying to build something that feels more natural: a private space for couples to check in, reflect, notice patterns, share moments, and learn what helps them feel closer.

We’re looking for couples who are willing to try the latest internal build together and give honest feedback.

What we’re offering:

  • 3 months free access for accepted beta testers
  • Lifetime access for couples who are highly engaged and give thoughtful feedback
  • Early access to the newest version before wider release

What we’re hoping for feedback on:

  • Is onboarding clear for both partners?
  • Do the prompts and check-ins feel useful, awkward, or too much like homework?
  • What feels meaningful enough to make you come back?
  • What feels missing, confusing, or unnecessary?
  • Any bugs, crashes, notification issues, or wording that feels off

This is not a hookup app, dating app, or therapy replacement. It’s for people already in a relationship who want a better way to stay connected.

If you’re interested, DM me here on Reddit with iOS or Android, or use the Join Testing form at https://swooni.io/testing.

I made a tiny universal prompt to stop laptop sleep from killing AI coding agent sessions

Title: I made a tiny universal prompt to stop laptop sleep from killing AI coding agent sessions

Post:

I kept running into a dumb but very real problem: when my laptop slept or hit the lock screen, my local AI coding agent workflow could get blocked.

That matters when the agent is working with things like:

- local dev servers

- iOS / Android simulators

- browser automation

- long builds

- test runs

- terminal processes

So I made a tiny repo called **Agent Awake**.

It is not an app. It is just one prompt you paste into Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc. The prompt asks the agent to create a global `agent-awake` command for your OS.

The goal is:

```bash

agent-awake on

agent-awake off

agent-awake status

agent-awake

```

It includes guidance for macOS, Windows, and Linux using built-in OS tools where possible.

Repo: https://github.com/AyoParadis/agent-awake

open-source SwiftUI macOS app called Codex Cleaner

Hey folks, I built a small open-source SwiftUI macOS app called Codex Cleaner.

It helps keep the Codex desktop app fast by scanning and safely maintaining local ~/.codex state. It backs things up first, then archives stale chats, worktrees, generated artifacts, shell snapshots, and oversized logs.

By default it archives instead of deleting, and it refuses to run cleanup while Codex is open so it doesn’t touch local state while the app is active.

A very different kind of couples app…

Me (humble dev) and my wife (a couples therapist and much more) have been building this app for way to long now because it’s something totally different and new that has never really existed before in the couples app category.

It’s not a content library or a therapy app, it’s a tool that actually helps you move the needle in real-time, based on Gottman’s Magic Ratio relationship research.

Please use and share if you find value in it. me and my wife are tying to start a chnage in culture with this app.

About the app:

Predict Your Relationship Success with 93% Accuracy.

Swooni turns the legendary Gottman "Magic Ratio" into a real-time dashboard for your love life.

Stop guessing. Start knowing.

Swooni isn’t a content library of generic articles or "feel-good" tips. It is a predictive tool designed to protect your future.

Hack Your Connection in Seconds:

• PREDICT SUCCESS IN ONE TAP

We supercharged the math of lasting love. Track your "Connection Signal" daily to see the invisible gaps in your relationship before they become canyons. It’s the 93% edge your lizard brain didn't see coming.

• OUTSMART YOUR LOVE BIOLOGY

Your brain hoards negativity. Swooni reprograms that bias so you catch the "Wiggles" (the micro-joys you’re zoning out) before the "Wobbles" (the friction) turn into a late night disagreement.

• THE 14-DAY SHIFT

Survival Mode is exhausting. Lover Mode is effortless. Give our signaling protocol 14 days to bridge the gap and remind your brain why you fell in love in the first place. Two weeks to a total vibe shift.

• THE WE MAP

Vague expectations lead to petty fights. Build a shared blueprint for your direction, your boundaries, and your… nocturnal priorities.

Built by a relationship therapist and her husband who refused to let their own marriage become a statistic.

we’re looking for constructive feedback, as we ade genuinely trying to shift culture with this app.

We’re also looking for partners and more than willing engage in profit sharing.

We have 6 new trials and 1 paid subscription

All I’ve done for now is comment in relevant threads related to “couples apps” and “relationship apps on reddit. I've also engaged on instagram comment threads the past week.

Me (humble dev) and my wife (a couples therapist and much more) have been building this app for way to long now because it’s something totally different and new that has never really existed before in the couples app category.

It’s not a content library or a therapy app, it’s a tool that actually helps you move the needle in real-time, based on Gottman’s Magic Ratio relationship research.

Because the category is so new, there aren’t really any relevant ASO keywords accessible to us yet, so we’re going the partner/influencer route directly and trying ranking for generic key words like 'couples'.

We have basically zero money for marketing at this point, so we want to make a deal based on 50% profit sharing with the right partner. We also have a generous affiliate program to at 20% commissions recurring.

But what we really believe will move the needle is the profit-sharing approach with one major aligned partner who sees the value we are trying to bring to the culture and them too, as money is important ofcourse.

Please use and share if you find value in it. me and my wife are tying to start a chnage in culture with this app.
