CloseCircle for iPhone & iPad

Your family, close.

One calm, private place to share photos and stories, ask for a hand, and stay close — built to be simple enough for everyone in the family to enjoy.

About

CloseCircle is a private family companion. Parents and grandparents get a calm, easy home screen; their adult children get a reassuring dashboard — so families stay meaningfully connected without anyone feeling watched.

WHAT'S INSIDE
• My Family — a private feed of photos, voice messages, and family news, with big one-tap reactions
• Tell a Story — a warm question each day that collects your memories into a Family Book
• Ask for Help — big buttons that post a request your family can pick up
• Is This Safe? — paste a suspicious message and get a plain-language read on whether it looks like a scam, and what to do
• A daily hello — a friendly “how are you today?” that shares a kind note, not your location

Simple by design: large text, high contrast, big buttons, light and dark mode.

Getting started

  1. Open CloseCircle. It opens ready to explore with a sample family.
  2. Tap My Family to see the feed; tap Tell a Story to answer today's question.
  3. In Settings, use “View the app as…” to switch between the grandparent's home and a family member's dashboard.

About “Is This Safe?”

The scam checker gives a helpful, plain-language opinion — it is not a guarantee. When something is unclear, the safest step is always to ask a trusted family member, or to contact the company yourself using a phone number you look up (never a number or link from the suspicious message). If you're in immediate danger or believe money has been taken, contact your bank and local authorities directly.
