How can we help?

Once you've started, you'll have an invite code (it looks like LOVE-K7Q3MX) and a link. Send either one by message or email. Your partner opens it on their own phone, answers the same few quick questions, and you're linked.

If you ask us to email the invite, we send one invitation and don't keep their address.

When you're linked, your partner sees your first name and your answers to steps for two, once you've both answered. The app tells you before you answer when a step is for two. They also see any reflection you choose to share, the love notes you send them, the mood you share, the dates either of you adds, whether you've done today's step, your shared streak and the packs either of you has opened. Which step you're on only shows if you both turn it on.

They never see your private journal, your Companion replies, your Love Manual, your onboarding answers or your account details. The full detail is in our Privacy Policy.

Yes. You can start solo, travel at your own pace and invite your partner whenever you like. Steps for two reveal once you've both answered, so they're at their best together.

No rush. Carry on with your own steps, and your journal and answers stay safe in your account. You can invite them again whenever the moment feels right, and when they join they answer the same questions on their own phone.

Yes. While you're linked, one subscription opens Love Explorer for both of you: £4.99 a month, or £24.99 a year with a 3-day free trial. After Dark is an optional extra at £2.99, once, for you both.

If you unlink, or the paying partner's subscription ends, access through them ends too. Either of you can subscribe on your own at any time.

If you subscribed through the App Store, cancel in your App Store settings. If you subscribed on the web, just email us and we'll cancel it for you.

Cancelling stops the next renewal, and you keep access until the end of the period you've paid for. If you're on a free trial, cancel before it ends so you're not charged.

It's on its way to the App Store. In the meantime, Love Explorer works in any browser, and on your phone you can add it to your Home Screen so it opens like an app, with notifications.

1. Open app.myloveexplorer.com in Safari.
2. Tap the Share button, then Add to Home Screen.
3. Open Love Explorer from your Home Screen.
4. Go to Settings and switch on notifications.

Adding it to your Home Screen comes first: iPhone only allows notifications for web apps opened from there. You'll need iOS 16.4 or later.

Yes, in Settings, at any time. When it's off, your reflections aren't sent to our AI provider, your answers aren't used in your partner's Companion replies, and your Love Manual stops being updated.

No. Love Explorer is a playful way to talk and grow closer, and it isn't therapy or counselling or a substitute for professional help. The planets and phases don't predict anything either: they're a map for conversation. If talking brings up strong feelings, it's fine to slow down, take a break, and reach out to a qualified professional or someone you trust.

Yes. Love Explorer is for adults aged 18 and over, and please only invite a partner who is 18 or over too.

Go to Settings and choose to unlink. The link ends for both of you straight away, and you can no longer see each other's answers. You each keep your own answers in your own journal. Love notes, moods and the dates you added are deleted for both of you.
