## About Dote

### Short (50 words)

Dote is the date-ideas app for couples. Save the date ideas you both find on TikTok, Instagram or anywhere into one shared date jar. Dote fills in the details, so you can pick one that suits the weekend and go, then keep the dates you go on as a private scrapbook.

### Long (150 words)

Dote is the date-ideas app for couples, on iPhone and Android. Its line says it all: Find it. Dote it. Do it.

Date ideas turn up everywhere, in a TikTok, an Instagram Reel or a friend's link, and then get lost in a camera roll or a chat. With Dote, either of you shares the idea straight from your phone's share sheet and it lands in one shared date jar. Dote finds the real place and fills in the kind of date, a rough cost and whether it's indoors or out.

When it's time to choose, filter the jar by what's nearby, the cost and how much energy you've got, and see which outdoor ideas suit the weekend's weather. Plan it for a day, add it to your calendar, and afterwards keep it as a memory with photos and both your takes, in a private scrapbook. Dote is free, with an optional Premium subscription that covers you both.

## Who makes Dote

Dote is made by Andrew and Nicole at Pouch Apps, a small independent app maker in Scotland.

Dote is for a problem most couples know: the date ideas you both spot end up scattered across two phones and forgotten by the weekend. Dote keeps them in one place, so picking one is the easy bit.
