Heart rate, location and letters

A private circle for the people you love.

HeartRay brings private heart-rate sharing, location sharing and messages together on iPhone and Android. See a reading from your dad’s watch, send your partner a letter, or check that a friend made it home. Choose what each person can see, and give everyone a character of their own.
