Ourio Coming soon

How it works

Two phones, one code, one room.

Setting up Ourio takes about two minutes. One of you installs it and gets a 10-character invite code; the other enters that code within 24 hours. From then on you share one room, one cat and everything you make for each other. A room holds exactly two people.

Steps

  1. Install Ourio on your iPhone

    Ourio is free on the App Store for iPhones on iOS 18 or later. There is no sign-up form: the app makes an anonymous account and keeps its key in your iCloud Keychain.

  2. Answer a few questions, or skip them

    Your age range, how the app should talk about you, the name your partner calls you, what you want to do together and when your story started. Every question can be skipped.

  3. Choose your cat and name her

    Pick a coat (grey tabby, ginger, cream, tuxedo, black or calico) and a name. Skip it and she stays Mochi.

  4. Send your partner your invite code

    Ourio shows a 10-character code. Share it as a message, an invite link or a QR code your partner scans. The code works for 24 hours; asking for a new one replaces it, and the old one stops working.

  5. Your partner joins with the code

    On their iPhone, your partner installs Ourio, taps “I have an invite code” and pastes or types it. Both phones show “You're paired!” and open the same room.

  6. Turn on notifications and add a widget

    Allow notifications so you don't miss a drawing, then add the Ourio widget to your Home Screen or Lock Screen.

What you share once you're paired

One room and one cat, one coin balance, your Moments, notes and drawings, the Us tab's lists, wishlists, calendar and date ideas, your love streak and the games. Everything one of you does shows up on the other phone, often on the Lock Screen through a widget.

Unpairing, blocking and starting again

In Settings, Unpair ends the pair for both of you; you can pair again with a new code. The shared room, with its notes, photos, cat and activity, is deleted, and each of you keeps what you bought and half the coins. Block partner also stops the two of you pairing again, and Report partner tells us what happened.

Your room is ready.

Ourio is free on iPhone. Your partner joins with one code.
