What Locket does really well, and what LockLove does differently
Locket is a lovely app. Let's say so plainly right from the start, because we don't need to talk badly about anyone to explain who we are. Locket turned something as simple as keeping a small photo of your partner in a widget on the iPhone home screen into a habit. It gave millions of people back the idea that a digital gesture can be affectionate. That matters, and we're grateful for it. LockLove is a different thing. Not better, not worse: different. For starters, we live on Android, not iOS. We don't use a small home-screen widget: we use the whole lock screen, full size, without having to touch a button. And our delivery is absolutely silent, with no notification in between. If Locket is a postcard on the fridge, LockLove is a note stuck to the door when you come home. Both are valid. Both play a role. This page exists so you know how they differ, not to convince you that one takes anything away from the other.

Stories
Real people who switched philosophies
Olalla F. and Pau D.
Lleida · switching from iPhone to Pixel
Olalla used Locket on her iPhone 11. She loved it: Pau lived in a small widget on her home screen, a photo a day, and that was enough. But the iPhone 11's battery was already stretched thin, and this winter she moved to a Pixel. The first thing she missed wasn't Apple's ecosystem: it was having Pau in some visual corner of her phone. She tried LockLove on a Friday at 20:12. She set it up in five minutes. She was surprised not to find the widget format she was used to, but when she saw the first photo of Pau filling her entire lock screen, she stayed looking at it for a long while. 'It's like going from a fridge magnet to a painting in the hallway,' she told her sister. Different choice, same affection.
Quim L. and Raisa V.
Castellón · couple with two Android phones
Quim and Raisa never got around to trying Locket because neither of them ever owned an iPhone. They lived with a vague, slightly silly feeling that loving little apps were a thing for couples with apples on their phones. When they found LockLove on an ordinary Sunday at 11:39, they laughed: 'finally, something built for us.' What hooked them wasn't the full screen — it was the silence. Not having to clear a notification, not having to open anything. Quim now sends Raisa a photo every morning before heading to class, and Raisa finds it when she wakes up without a single buzz.
Saleta X. and Telmo H.
Alicante ↔ Mahón · couple in the public eye
Saleta and Telmo both work in television. Privacy matters more to them than to most: an accidental screenshot, a widget visible on a newsroom desk, can turn into a story. They tried Locket a while back and felt a little uneasy having a photo of each other in plain sight on the home screen, where anyone could see it over their shoulder. When they found LockLove, what won them over wasn't just the full screen, but the fact that the wallpaper disappears automatically when you lock the phone. One person's face, a moment on the other's phone, and then silence. On a Tuesday at 22:34, Saleta sent Telmo a photo of the Mediterranean from Alicante. He saw it in Mahón, without anybody else ever seeing it.
Reflection
Two philosophies of the digital gesture
There's a question almost no one asks when comparing one app to another, and it's this: what kind of gesture is each one trying to build? Because Locket and LockLove don't exactly compete. They only compete if you look at them as App Store categories. If you look at them as emotional proposals, each is an answer to a different question. Locket asks: how do I keep a small, constant piece of my partner in my day? LockLove asks: how do I make my partner appear in my day as a silent surprise, taking up the whole space for a moment and then disappearing?

Locket is a fridge magnet. LockLove is a painting in the hallway. Both are valid, depending on which house you live in.
Both questions are legitimate. The widget suits the everyday, the permanent, the decorative. It's a magnet on the fridge: always there, caught out of the corner of your eye, reassuring just by existing. The lock screen suits the episodic, the intimate, what shows up and leaves. It's a postcard that arrives this week and next week will be another one. Each philosophy appeals to a different couple, and often to the same couple at different points in their life.
There's also a more practical difference worth naming. Locket lives on iOS, and does so beautifully. LockLove lives on Android, because Android lets you integrate deeply with the system's live wallpaper engine, something iOS doesn't allow. That's not a flaw in iOS, it's a decision Apple made. And it's not a virtue of LockLove either: it's what Android lets us do, and we use every inch of that freedom. If you have an iPhone, Locket is made for you. If you have Android and you like the idea of a painting in the hallway instead of a magnet on the fridge, try LockLove. No notifications. No alerts. Just magic. Not more messages, better ones. Each with its own philosophy, each with its own operating system, and mutual respect for helping couples take better care of each other.
