## What is iz?

iz lets you leave thoughts and poems at your current location.

like finding writings on old walls during a night walk - quiet, mysterious, touched.

how it works:
• go somewhere, leave a trace
• others find your trace when they visit
• you discover traces left by others

features:
• location-based discovery - traces only appear within 50 meters
• private sharing - traces show no names, just words
• intentions - leave a message saying "be here someday"
• postcards - combine traces with photos as memories
• fading system - unread traces disappear in 30 days

iz is a quiet space away from social media noise. no likes, no followers, no profile photos. just words and places.

every corner of the city holds a story. leave your trace.
