Welcome to The Friendship App webpage!

I am thrilled you have found this website because it means that you believe that friendships can be enriched when we become more aware of the important details of our friends’ lives and more connected to the things that are happening to them and their loved ones.

If you are like me, then you are constantly disappointed in your brain’s ability to retain all the things you want to remember in general, and especially about your friends. I would love to be able to instantly recall the names of their children and spouses, where they grew up and went to college, the big things that are going on for them this month and this year, and the things that have taken place in the past. I would also love to be that friend that remembers to call on the anniversary of a parent’s death or to say ‘bon voyage” as she leaves for a special anniversary trip. Sadly, my brain is pathetic when it comes to these things.

That’s why I created The Friendship App! It unburdens my brain and helps me to be the more thoughtful friend I want to be. It remembers all the details for me. It reminds me on important occasions. And I can relax. The Friendship App will do it all.

And I love how easy it is to use. I meet a friend for lunch, we catch up and I learn lots of things going on in her life, and as drive away, I simply dictate details I want to remember into The Friendship App. At a stop sign, I can set a reminder to call on the day she hears about her biopsy results or her child’s acceptance for school. Over time, we become more entwined as friends, we are closer, and each time we meet, we can start where we left off, instead of starting over. Our friendship deepens. We are closer.

My wish is that you will use The Friendship App and begin experiencing more connection and and joy in your friendships!
