Lava

Couples Messaging

What it does

Lava is a private photo and video messaging app for couples who want direct, simple and distraction free communication to keep their connection burning. This app is designed with simplicity in mind which means taking away all the things that are cyber engineered to keep us hooked. There are no ads, stories, multiple chats, message history, games or filters. Relationships in this noisy digital age are hard. Lava's purpose is to be a safe space for two people to live and communicate in peace.
