Question 1

What makes Before Yes different from other relationship apps?

Accepted Answer

Before Yes focuses specifically on marriage preparation with research-backed questions covering essential life decisions. Unlike dating apps or generic relationship quizzes, we help couples and individuals address the topics that matter most before making a lifelong commitment. Our dual-mode approach lets you prepare solo or together, ensuring both individual readiness and couple compatibility.

Question 2

Do I need to create an account?

Accepted Answer

No! Before Yes is completely account-free. We believe in privacy-first design, so there's no sign-up. Just download and start exploring the questions that matter to you. Your answers stay private on your device.

Question 3

How does Couples Mode work?

Accepted Answer

In Couples Mode, one partner creates a private room with a unique code. The other partner joins using that code. You both answer questions independently, then the app compares your responses in real-time, showing compatibility scores and highlighting areas for discussion. It's designed to spark meaningful conversations, not create conflict.

Question 4

What topics do the questions cover?

Accepted Answer

Our 100+ questions cover essential life decisions including family planning, finances, career goals, living arrangements, religious beliefs, communication styles, emotional needs, family relationships, long-term goals, and shared values. These topics are based on research showing which conversations lead to stronger marriages.

Question 5

Is Before Yes only for engaged couples?

Accepted Answer

Not at all! Before Yes is valuable for anyone in a serious relationship considering marriage, those already engaged, couples in premarital counseling, or even individuals who want to assess their own readiness before committing to a partnership. Solo Mode is perfect for personal reflection.

Question 6

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Before Yes is free to download with full access to core features. We offer optional in-app purchases for additional question sets and premium features. You can try everything risk-free to see if it's right for you and your partner.

Question 7

Is Before Yes available in other languages?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Before Yes is currently available in English and French, making it accessible to couples across different linguistic backgrounds. We're working on adding more languages based on user feedback.
