Kindling: Family Questions

Pick a moment, like soccer pickup at 6:20, and a great question lands on your lock screen, ready to read out loud. Never repeats. No account, no subscription.

The deck of conversation cards was a great idea. It's also at the bottom of a drawer.

Kindling brings the good question to the moment the conversation can actually happen. Pick your moments — soccer pickup on weekdays at 6:20, Saturday breakfast, the drive to practice — and at that time, a notification arrives. The notification is the question. Read it straight off the lock screen, out loud, eyes on the road.

"What's something I think you like that you actually don't?"

No feed. No streaks. No account. One question, big type, and a deck you can actually swipe: right to keep it, left to pass. Or ask it a lighter way. If the back seat answers with a shrug, there's a follow-up tucked behind a tap.

WHY IT WORKS • The question arrives at the right moment — you never have to remember an app • Questions never repeat. Not even reworded versions of ones you've seen • 900 hand-written questions, and when those are gone Kindling composes fresh ones on your phone. The library doesn't run out • Decks for Family, Kids, Couples, and Friends — plus "This House," built from what's actually going on in yours • Kid-safe lock keeps every question appropriate when children are listening • Questions you love live in Favorites: searchable, exportable, forever

FREE, THEN ONE PURCHASE The download is free and includes the Family deck with 40 hand-picked questions, plus everything else: your moments, notifications, swiping, favorites, export, and the kid-safe lock. One optional purchase, the Full Deck, unlocks the Kids, Couples, Friends, and This House decks and the questions that never run out. Pay once. No subscription.

On iPhone 15 Pro and later, the Full Deck also composes brand-new questions right on your device using Apple Intelligence. Nothing leaves your phone.
