Everything Kneel can do for your D/s dynamic: tasks, rituals, consequences, chastity tracking, and contracts, each explained from both the dominant and submissive perspective.

A catalog of rewards with point costs. The submissive spends points to redeem one; the Dominant grants it, declines it with a refund, or gifts a reward. Premium; any partner unlocks it.
Punishment & Reward Jar
An animated random draw from your punishment library or reward catalog, with severity and cost filters and a Keep out of the jar setting. Premium; any partner unlocks it.
Granted Rewards
Approved and gifted rewards surface on the sub's home, open to a detail screen with Mark Used, and show up in the Dom's Rewards tab as unused grants. Premium; any partner unlocks it.
Wellness Tracking
Daily mood check-ins from 1 to 5, 30-day trends, and optional reflection and gratitude notes.
Check-In Comments
A comment thread under each check-in entry. The other partner gets a push. Conversations stay tied to the entry. Premium; any partner unlocks it.
Active Restrictions
A home screen section with your active restrictions, each with a time-left or Indefinite badge. Same view on Solo, Dominant, and Submissive home screens. Premium; any partner unlocks it.
Scheduled Check-Ins
Up to six check-ins a day, each with its own time, points, penalty, and chastity adjustment. Premium; any partner unlocks it. Free relationships keep one daily check-in.
Miss Correction
The dominant, or a solo member, taps a missed task or ritual on the accountability log and marks it completed. The penalty reverses: points and streaks are restored. No time window.
More Time & Skips
The submissive asks for more time on a task; the Dominant approves, denies or adds a penalty. Skip one occurrence without a miss.

Clear overdue tasks, misses and consequences after time away. Your setup stays.
Agreements & Structure
Formalize expectations and manage relationships
Contracts
Living agreements with version history, digital signatures, and renewal periods.

The dominant seals a photo at lock time (a keybox code, a safe combination) revealed only when the lock releases. End-to-end encrypted. Premium; any partner unlocks it. Partnered Dom to Sub only.
Hidden Release Date
Hide the scheduled unlock date from the submissive. The lock still auto-releases on time; the reveal is one-way. Distinct from an indefinite lock. Premium; any partner unlocks it.
Confirm Mode and Leave
Lock and release wait for the submissive to confirm the device. Leave lets the device come off until a set time without ending the lock. Premium; any partner unlocks it. Partners only.

Frequently asked questions
What features does Kneel offer for D/s couples?
Kneel provides task assignments with deadlines and point rewards, rituals with streak tracking, consequences and rewards, chastity tracking, relationship contracts, shared notes, mood check-ins, Kink Match, a Scene Log, private encrypted chat, and end-to-end encrypted photo proof. Each feature gives the dominant and the submissive their own view, and you can also use Kneel solo.
Is Kneel free to use?
Kneel is free to download and use. Tasks, rituals, one daily check-in, points, proposals, ideas, contracts, letters, the Scene Log, pause mode, and data export are free, with up to 10 active tasks and 3 active rituals. Premium unlocks consequences and rewards, chastity, mantras, the task bank, ritual streak goals, shared notes, private chat, encrypted photo proof, Kink Match, permission requests, check-in comments, up to six check-ins a day, surprise scene plans and Automations, and removes the task and ritual caps. If either partner has Premium, the whole dynamic gets it.
How do dominant and submissive roles work in the app?
You create a dynamic and pick your role, then invite your partner, who takes the opposite role. Dominants assign tasks, create rituals, set consequences, and manage chastity. Submissives complete tasks and rituals, log check-ins, earn points, and can propose tasks, rituals, rewards, or punishments for the dominant to approve. You can also start solo and invite a partner later.
Can I use Kneel for a female-led relationship (FLR)?
Yes. Kneel works for any power exchange structure: FLR, traditional D/s, service-oriented dynamics, and more. The roles are dominant and submissive with no gender assumed, and each person can set their own pronouns.
