Two people seated close together in candlelight, with a phone and a blank card on the table.

Questions for two

Ask something real.
Keep the answer.

TELL turns a quiet moment into five better questions. Two nearby iPhones. No performance. No feed. Just the part you might want to remember.

Meet TELL

App Store status: TELL was submitted to App Review on 5 September 2026. The App Store record exists, but the public listing is not live and there is no download link yet.

For the conversations that don’t fit in a text.

Not a compatibility score. Not a streak. TELL gives two people one prompt at a time and the space to answer it properly.

Pass a phone, choose who goes first, or record only when both people want to. The result is a small, private keepsake—not content for anyone else.

The ritual

Five questions. One shared pause.

Nearby iPhones connect using Bluetooth and local Wi-Fi. The paired flow does not need an account or an internet connection.

01

Choose a mood.

Start with prompts that make room for the things you mean but rarely say aloud.

02

Take a turn.

Each person gets their own screen. Decide who answers first, then listen without a timer.

03

Keep it, if you both choose.

Recording starts only with explicit consent. The finished answer remains on the recording iPhone.

The real app

Private by the way it behaves.

These are real TELL screens: a shared prompt, a clear recording choice, and a personal local library.

Privacy, plainly

Nothing to feed.

TELL is designed for a moment between two people, not a profile about them. The paired exchange stays nearby; an optional recording stays on the phone that made it.

Clear answers

Before you begin.

What is TELL?

TELL is a private iPhone question game for two people. You take turns answering prompts and can choose to record an answer.

Do I need two iPhones?

Yes, for the paired experience. Both nearby iPhones need iOS 17 or later. They connect over Bluetooth and local Wi-Fi.

Where do recordings go?

Recording begins only after explicit consent. Each recording stays locally on the iPhone that recorded it; TELL does not upload it to a cloud service.

Does TELL collect data or show ads?

No. TELL has no account, ads, cloud upload or collected data.

How much does TELL cost?

TELL includes 50 free prompts. TELL+ unlocks 30 additional prompts for $4.99 monthly or $34.99 annually, with local pricing shown by Apple.

When can I download it?
