Quick answers about how Relavara works, what Free Basic and Premium include, privacy, safety, backups, and using the app.
What exactly is it?
Relavara is a private relationship-pattern and self-reflection tool. It helps you keep a structured history instead of relying only on memory or the emotion of the most recent moment.
What does Relavara actually do?
Relavara lets you record relationship interactions, note behaviors and context, reflect on your own part, keep journal entries, and review what appears across time.
Premium adds deeper pattern tools, unlimited tracking, media, timeline, goals, reports, and other expanded features.
See the full Features page .
Is Relavara only for romantic relationships?
No. It can be used for dating, partners, family relationships, friendships, parent-child relationships, and other personal relationships supported by the app.
Can I use it while I am only talking to or getting to know someone?
Yes. Relavara supports early relationship stages, including talking and pre-date situations, so you do not have to wait until a relationship is formally established.
Does Relavara diagnose narcissism or personality disorders?
No. Relavara is behavior-focused and does not diagnose narcissism, personality disorders, or other mental-health conditions.
Its Reality Check section is designed around behaviors, context, repetition, boundaries, communication, and repair rather than labels.
Will Relavara tell me whether someone is toxic?
No. It does not assign a person an overall label. It helps you look at specific behaviors and the patterns created by the history you record.
Will Relavara tell me whether to stay or leave a relationship?
No. Relavara organizes information and supports reflection. It does not make relationship decisions for you.
What is Pause & Breathe?
Pause & Breathe is the Calm Moment feature. It gives you a short breathing and grounding option before you continue logging, journaling, or reviewing an interaction.
It is included in both Free Basic and Premium.
What do I need to buy?
You can start without buying anything. Free Basic gives you a usable starter version, while Premium removes the main limits and unlocks the complete toolkit.
Is Free Basic really free?
Yes. Free Basic costs $0. It is designed to let you actually try the Relavara process rather than simply view a demo.
What are the Free Basic limits?
Free Basic supports one personal relationship and up to 10 personal interaction logs.
It also includes core tools such as Basic Relationship Insight, Pattern Overview, Journal, Reality Check, Guide, Pause & Breathe, PIN, Quick Exit, backups, safety resources, and two themes.
What happens when I reach 10 personal logs?
Free Basic stops adding new personal interaction logs once its personal-log limit is reached. Existing information remains available within the Free Basic experience.
Premium removes the log limit.
How much is Premium?
Relavara Premium is currently $29.99 as a one-time purchase.
There is no required recurring subscription.
Do I have to use Free Basic before buying Premium?
No. You can start with Free Basic or go directly to Premium.
Does Premium include everything in Free Basic?
Yes. Premium includes the core Relavara tools plus unlimited relationships and logs, advanced pattern tools, timeline, goals, repair tracking, Gallery media, reports, expanded backup options, and all eight themes.

Where does my information go?
Relavara is designed around local-first record storage and practical privacy controls, but those controls have important limits.
Where are my relationship records stored?
Supported relationship information is designed to be stored in browser storage on the device where you use Relavara.
Learn more on the Privacy page .
Is my PIN the same as encryption?
No. The Relavara PIN is an interface lock intended to help prevent casual access. It is not device-level encryption and does not turn browser storage into an encrypted vault.
What does Quick Exit do?
Quick Exit quickly changes the visible Relavara interface to a neutral Notes-style screen.
It does not automatically erase browser history, downloads, screenshots, notifications, or other traces outside the app.
Can Quick Exit hide Relavara from spyware or device monitoring?
No. Quick Exit cannot defeat spyware, device-monitoring software, account syncing, or someone who already has broader access to the device.
Should I make backups?
If your Relavara history matters to you, keeping a backup is a good way to reduce the risk of losing supported records if browser data is cleared, the browser is reset, or a device fails.
What is different about Premium backups?
Premium includes a password-protected backup option in addition to supported backup import and restore.
The backup password is chosen by you. A forgotten backup password cannot simply be recovered by Relavara.
Are my photos and audio included in the normal backup?
No. Premium Gallery media, such as supported photos, screenshots, selfies, and audio, is stored separately from the ordinary relationship-data backup.
The standard JSON backup does not include Gallery media.
What happens if I clear my browser data?
Because Relavara uses local browser storage, clearing site data may remove locally stored records. That is one reason backups are important.
Can I install Relavara like an app?
Relavara can provide an installable web-app experience on supported browsers and devices. Installation options vary by browser, operating system, and device.
What if the situation is serious?
Relavara keeps safety-related behavior separate from ordinary conflict, but the app is not an emergency, crisis, legal, or professional service.
Does Relavara treat positive behavior as cancelling out safety concerns?
No. Safety-related behavior remains separate. Positive interactions do not mathematically erase threats, coercion, intimidation, violence, or other safety concerns.
Does Relavara decide whether something is abuse?
Relavara records and organizes behaviors and provides educational information. It does not make a professional, legal, or clinical determination about a person or relationship.
What should I do if I am in immediate danger?
Relavara is not an emergency service. In the United States, call 911 for immediate emergency assistance.
You can also visit the Safety page for crisis and domestic-violence resources.
Is safety information only available in Premium?
No. Core safety tracking, safety resources, PIN, Quick Exit, Pause & Breathe, and Reality Check are available in Free Basic.
Can I record conversations with the Premium audio feature?
Premium supports recording or adding supported audio, but recording laws vary by jurisdiction and circumstance.
The technical ability to record something does not automatically mean the recording is lawful. Relavara does not provide legal advice.
Can I use Relavara for a child or parent-child relationship?
Relavara can support parent-child relationship tracking, but children should be considered developmentally. The app is not intended to diagnose or label a child as “toxic.”
Still cannot find the answer?
Contact Relavara for questions about access, purchases, downloads, app use, or another product issue.
Start with Free Basic.
Try one relationship, record a few interactions, explore Reality Check, and see whether Relavara helps you look back more clearly.
