Real-Time Distance Display

In Couple Mode, you'll see a live distance counter right on your home screen showing how far apart you and your partner are. Whether it's 500 meters or 5,000 kilometers, the distance updates in real-time.

How It Works

  1. Both partners enable location in Couple Mode settings
  2. GPS coordinates are exchanged securely
  3. Distance is calculated and displayed on both screens
  4. Updates happen when either partner moves significantly

Distance Display Features

  • Live counter - Distance shown prominently on Couple Mode home
  • Map view - Optional map showing both locations
  • History chart - See how distance has changed over time
  • Closest ever - Track your record closest distance
  • Days apart - Counter for LDR couples

Perfect for LDR Couples

Long-distance couples love this feature for:

  • Watching the distance decrease as you travel to meet
  • Feeling connected despite the miles
  • Celebrating when you're finally together (0 km!)
  • Planning visits by seeing travel distances

Privacy Controls

You're in control of location sharing:

  • Toggle off - Disable distance tracking anytime
  • Approximate mode - Show only city-level location
  • Schedule - Only share during certain hours

Battery Impact

Distance tracking is optimized for minimal battery usage. Location updates are batched and only sent when movement is detected. Background tracking uses low-power mode.
