What Stay in Touch is
Stay in Touch is a free iPhone app for keeping track of personal relationships and planning when to reconnect. Set a preferred contact frequency for each person and receive reminders when it is time to reach out. Custom circles can organize contacts into groups such as Inner Circle, Old Friends, or Networking. After a catch-up, you can record how it felt and save details like gift ideas or who initiated the meeting. The app works with iPhone Contacts, Calendar, and Reminders, and can sync birthdays and anniversaries from Apple Contacts. Relationship logs and circles sync through the user's iCloud account. The maker says information is stored locally with SwiftData and synced through a private iCloud container, without external servers; it also says the app supports full offline use. Interaction notes and mood logs are protected with AES-GCM 256-bit encryption, with keys stored in the device's Secure Keychain. The maker says the app has no analytics, ads, location tracking, or third-party SDKs. It is listed as free and requires iOS 26.2 or later. The maker is based in Munich, Germany.
