Cupple: App of the Week

23 January 2013

App: Cupple

Available On: iOS Devices

Price: Free

What is it?

Having Cupple on your phone is a bit like having a private Facebook. You and your partner can communicate away from prying eyes about anything you like.

You can send pictures as well as having a general chit chat about your day, and can also build up a picture gallery, documenting your time together!

It’s great for couples who often have to spend time apart, due to a long-distance relationship or simply down to work commitments.

If you do like to be a little more open then you can share parts of your day via the app to Facebook, so everything is possible!

We Love:

It’s really accessible and user friendly. Because it is like Facebook it’s really easy to get to grips with and only takes a few minutes of playing around to get the hang of it.

You can use ‘stickers’ when you post your joint wall which are designed to match what you’ve said or how you’re feeling.

You can also track where each other are in the world with the Heart Map which shows you where your other half is, wherever they may be in the world!

The whole app has a really nice look about it too. It’s clean, simple and easy to understand. Nothing is too fussy or in your face and that really is important when deciding whether you like a new app.

Downfall:

There is only one thing that really lets the app down and it’s that it doesn’t have a video feature.

We think it would really benefit from having a skype-like feature built in so that you could have a quick video chat when you’ve got a spare 5 mins, or even record a message/video to surprise your loved on with.
