screenshot the chat. she reads every line and tells you what she sees — like she would at her kitchen table.
tinder, hinge, bumble — any of them. she pulls out the conversation and you confirm it’s right.
sent securely for a safety check and a model read. our database doesn’t keep the chat.
red flags for trouble, green flags for the keepers — quoted straight from his own words.
“what do i say back?” “is he worth another date?” she remembers every man you upload.
the verdict
every match gets read and gets a verdict. one stamp, no fence-sitting. then the receipts to back it up.
“shows up, asks questions, remembers the answers. don’t overthink it.”
“charming, but watch the temper. give it a minute before you fall.”
“he’s running the playbook, sweetheart. that’s not affection, that’s a script.”
same granny.
two very
different men.
the bigger thing
a verdict is the start. the real thing is the one who remembers — who notices the loop you’re in and says something before you text first. again.
she watches across every match, not just one chat. “you give them three chances — two too many.” the patterns you can’t see in yourself, she’s been quietly keeping.
every sunday, granny writes. who moved, who held the line, who came crawling back — and exactly what she thinks about it. “when a man takes four days to say ‘miss you,’ that isn’t an apology, it’s a probe.”
about to do the thing again — double-texting the one who never plans, ignoring the one who shows up? granny notices the thread stalling and nudges you before you make the move you’ll regret. that’s where she goes beyond a one-off chat.
built to show her work
the useful parts are inspectable: you confirm what granny read, see the messages behind her take, and keep her notebook on your iPhone.
granny shows the extracted conversation before using it, so you can correct names, speakers, and lines.
her receipts point back to the messages that shaped the read, so you can check the reasoning for yourself.
match history, patterns, journal entries, and granny’s notes live in the app on your iPhone.
you set the heat
pick a setting. she’ll hold to it — or you can change it whenever. try it on the same match:
three days in and already saying “i love you”? that’s not affection, sweetheart. that’s a script.
no fine print
granny won’t pretend the cloud isn’t involved. here’s what leaves your phone, what stays there, and what delete actually does.
to read them, granny sends your conversations securely through our gateway to a cloud AI. not magic — the cloud is part of the read. honest.
everything she learns about you — verdicts, patterns, history — stays in local memory on your device. not on a server.
“forget me entirely” wipes the notebook after our server accepts the request and starts permanent account deletion. unfinished provider deletes keep retrying.
your notebook stays local. our database doesn’t keep your chats. no selling.
the skeptic’s corner
Granny is an AI dating coach for iPhone with the personality of a blunt, warm grandmother, built by Peeled Banana, an independent studio in Austin. You screenshot a conversation from Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, or iMessage; Granny reads it, flags the red and green signals, gives a verdict — walk, keeper, or wait — and remembers your dating patterns over time. Her notebook about you lives on your phone.
not quite. general chatbots can have memory, but granny is built around your dating life: structured match histories, verdicts, flags, dealbreakers, and the way each connection changes over time. she notices the loop you’re repeating and brings it up. the character and that dating-specific notebook are the product.
the honest version: your conversations are sent securely for a safety check and through our gateway to a cloud AI so granny can read them. we don’t keep the conversation content in our database, sell it, or use it to build a granny training dataset. what she learns lives on your phone, and “forget me entirely” wipes the notebook after our server accepts the request and starts permanent account and server-data deletion, with durable retries if a provider is temporarily unavailable. see the full promise →
she remembers. every match gets a spot in her notebook, and she pulls the history back up when it matters — in a verdict, in the sunday letter, and especially when you’re about to repeat an old mistake.
granny can flag messages that look consistent with common love-bombing patterns, along with breadcrumbing, future faking, the slow fade, hot and cold behavior, and gaslighting. she points to the exact messages and explains the read, but a pattern is not proof of someone’s intent or a diagnosis.
any of them — tinder, hinge, bumble, the rest. if you can screenshot the chat, granny can read it and pull out the conversation for you to confirm.
no — granny is an AI coach with a point of view, not a licensed therapist, matchmaker, or crisis line. take her like you’d take advice from the sharpest woman at the table: seriously, but it’s yours to use. if things get heavy, please talk to someone real.
