Person smiling at their phone

Thinking of you. Every day.

A small gesture for couples who are not in the same place right now. One tap. One bear. A warm sign, nothing more.

It is 10 pm. You are lying in a hotel bed in an unfamiliar city.

You do not want to call again. You already talked this morning, and they are probably falling asleep right now.

You do not want to text "are you awake?".

You just want to say: I am here. Thinking of you.

You tap the bear once. At the other end: a small notification. A smile. Maybe they tap back tomorrow morning.

What Bearhugme does

Bearhugme is an app for two: for you and for the person you think of every day.

One tap

The bear is happy. Your Lieblingsmensch gets a quiet signal: I am okay, I am thinking of you.

Both ways

Both of you can tap. Two bears, one ritual. No chat history, no "I still owe you a reply".

Why it is different

WhatsApp is an open channel. Logistics, work, friends, family, everything runs through it.

Bearhugme is not a channel. It is a ritual.

A small place that belongs to the two of you alone. No chat history, no "I still have to reply", no "missed you yesterday". One bear a day. Done.

For relationships where closeness does not live on many words, but on signs.

Frequently asked questions

Does it work across borders and time zones?

Yes. The app counts the day by your local time. If you are in Sydney and your person is in Berlin, you each tap by your own clock.

What if we text every day anyway?

Then Bearhugme might not add anything for you. Or it might, because a chat is a task and a tap on the bear is not. Try it.

Does it work if only one of us installs it?

No, you both need the app so the sign arrives. That is the idea.

In which countries is Bearhugme available?

Almost worldwide. Bearhugme is on the App Store and Google Play in almost every country, long-distance included. If it is not available in your country, let me know: [email protected].

Which languages does the app support?

English and German. In German, the app is known as Drück mich. Same app, same bear.

What does it cost?

It is free at launch. Extras will cost a small fee later. The daily tap stays free.
