About Anchor Plural

An iPhone app for plural systems, built around the moment help is needed and private enough to trust with everything else.

Why it exists

A switch can leave whoever is fronting without the story so far. On a hard night, that means reaching out to a stranger and starting from nothing: explaining that you are plural, who is here, what helps and what makes it worse.

Anchor Plural lets a system write that down once, on a calmer day, and keeps it two taps away. The rest of the app is there so the first screen is worth opening every day: who’s here, notes between members, a shared safety plan and front history.

What we hold to

Your system’s information is yours

It stays on your phone. There is no account to make and nothing for us to look up, lose or sell. You can export all of it as a file at any time.

You stay in charge

The app never contacts anyone for you. It opens Messages or Phone with the right number and your message ready, and you decide whether to send it.

Nothing judges you

There is no AI in the app and no scoring of any kind. It shows what your system put in it.

Your words

Members, alters, headmates, parts: the app uses the word your system uses, in five languages.

No one gets stranded

You can import from six other apps, and leave with everything whenever you like.

Free

No subscription, no ads and nothing to unlock.

How the help lines are kept

The help screen covers 50 countries. Each number is checked against two independent sources before it is added, and the date of the last check is shown in the app. Where no line could be verified, the app shows that country’s emergency number and a directory of helplines instead of a guess.

Anchor Plural is not a crisis service and is not affiliated with any.

Tell us what is wrong

Anchor Plural is in testing before its App Store release. If you try it and something is off for your system, tell us: that is what gets fixed first. The support page says how.
