About OverYou

What we make, and how we write about breakups.

OverYou: No Contact & Breakup is an independent iPhone app for one specific moment: the weeks and months after a breakup, when you know you should stop checking your ex and it is still very hard to do. It gives you a no-contact streak, a 60-second timer for when the urge hits, a place to write the message instead of sending it, a journal, and Mochi, a grumpy cat who listens.

It is built around a simple idea. Getting over someone is less about willpower and more about breaking a habit: the habit of turning to them, checking on them, and waiting for them. Habits change with small, repeated wins, so that is what the app helps you collect.

How our guides are written

If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, please contact your local emergency number or a crisis line near you right now. If you are afraid of a partner or ex, a domestic abuse service can help.

Privacy

The app has no account, no advertising and no tracking. Your streak, journal and photos stay on your iPhone. The details are in our privacy policy.
