CLOSENESS
Private intimacy log for Garmin

Private.
On your wrist.

Closeness is a private log for adults, built like a workout app. Press START, see your time and heart rate, finish when you are done. Sessions, partners and stats stay on your watch.

One-time purchase, 4 USD in the Connect IQ Store. No subscription. 18+.

How it works

Two presses to start. One to hide.

01

Start

Pick Solo, a partner label or a group, then press START. No PIN stands in the way of starting.

02

Hide

Press BACK and the screen shows only the time and date, like a plain watch face. The session keeps counting.

03

Save

Finish, and the session is saved on the watch: duration, average and maximum heart rate, estimated calories.

Where your data lives

On the watch. Encrypted. Nowhere else by default.

On your watch

Your whole log

  • Sessions, partners, history and stats
  • Sessions and partners encrypted (AES-256)
  • Optional 4 or 6 digit PIN for history, stats and partner details
In Garmin Connect

Nothing, unless you ask

  • Off by default
  • If you turn on the copy before a session, you can save it as a plain "Cardio" activity
  • No partner labels, no notes, no app fields
Never

No internet at all

  • No internet (Communications) permission
  • No account, no cloud, no phone settings
  • No analytics in the app or on this site
What you get

A log, not a leaderboard.

  • Live session screen. Big timer, heart rate, estimated calories. A simple page with only the time, if you prefer.
  • Solo, partner or group. Partners are short labels like A or B with a colour, created on the watch. Names never leave it.
  • History by month. Add a session you did not time, edit or delete any entry.
  • Stats for week, month, year and all time. Count, total and average time, heart rate, weekly streak, calendar, days of the week and time of day.
  • No rankings. No percentages between partners, no red and green arrows, no daily streak to keep alive.
  • Show screen. One session, its time and a partner label, to show on your wrist. Nothing else from your history.
  • Optional tags, off by default. How it was (1 to 5) and protection used.
  • Buttons and touch. START and BACK are enough on every supported watch.

Before you buy

The honest part.

  • Your Garmin watch records all-day heart rate, stress and Body Battery anyway. Those charts in Garmin Connect can show a rise at the time of a session. No app can change that.
  • There is no backup and no export. Uninstalling or reinstalling the app deletes your history.
  • If you forget your PIN, you can reset the history. Partners and settings stay.
  • Calories are an estimate from heart rate, weight and age. Closeness is not a medical device.
  • Garmin lets you return a paid app within 48 hours of purchase. That is why there is no trial.
