Ciao! Try it free

Why › No shame

Needing a reminder is not a character flaw

Life is busy and it is hard. Wanting help to stay close to people is the opposite of not caring.

The Ciao! list: Marco, Jake, Sara, Olivia, Dad and Mom, each with a happy animal and when you last talked.

What this actually looks like

  • “I feel dumb for needing this”

    That is the most common sentence people write before they try an app like this one.

  • “It feels like rating my friends”

    Nobody wants a scoreboard of the people they love.

  • You worry they would find out

    And you would rather they never knew there was a list.

What Ciao! does about it

  • Nobody is scored

    There are no points, no streaks, no percentages. The face just shows how long it has been.

  • Nobody finds out

    Your friends are never in the app. No invites, no shared anything. It never sends a message for you.

  • Made by someone who needed it

    I moved abroad and lost people to “I’ll call tomorrow”. This is the thing I built for myself.

Try it with someone you know.
