Don't drift apart.

Sea otters hold hands in their sleep so the current can't separate them. myOtter is that, for couples: find something to do, actually agree on it, and keep the story afterwards.

Free to start. Two people, one private space. Already have one? Log in

How it works

Three steps, then you're out of the house

Most date nights die somewhere between "we should do that" and someone having to make a booking. myOtter is built around that gap.

Find something

Filter by mood, budget and how far you're willing to travel. Real Sydney venues we've been to, with a booking link that works.

Lock it in

Propose it. They accept. It's set. Every other app stops at the idea, and the idea is not the hard part.

Keep it

Photos, notes, the thing they said on the drive home. Saved to a timeline that only the two of you can open.

No account needed

Right then. What are you doing this weekend?

Pick a vibe and a budget, and we'll choose for you.

Why they're called Pebbles

A sea otter keeps one favourite pebble its whole life, in a pouch of skin under its arm. It uses it to crack dinner open. It also gives it to the otter it wants to keep.

That's where Pebbles come from. You earn them for planning the thing, for turning up, for writing down what happened. Not for posting, and not for being seen doing it.

After a year you have a small pile of evidence that you kept choosing each other on ordinary Tuesdays. That turns out to matter more than the big nights.

Inside

What you actually get

A timeline only you two can open

Photos, notes, milestones, the small stuff. No feed, no followers, nothing to scroll past.

Plans that stick

Propose, agree, done. Both of you have said yes to the same thing on the same night, which is most of the battle.

Pebbles

Points for effort, not for posting. Streaks if you're competitive about it, and you probably are.

Games worth arguing about

Short couple games with a scoreboard. One of you will claim the scoring is rigged. It isn't.

Couples using it

Mostly for the Tuesdays

We stopped defaulting to the same three places. Now we actually plan something, and we actually go.

I'd see somewhere good on Instagram, screenshot it, and never find it again. Now it goes in one place and we book it.

Questions

The things people ask first

Two people. One private space. Free to start.

Set it up in about a minute, then send the invite whenever you're ready.
