Developer's Thoughts

In today's world of technology and digital communication, we have many apps to connect with others. Most of the time, these are fragmented pieces of information, and they rarely carry the depth of emotion that we want to express to each other.
That’s why I came up with the idea to create this app—so everyone can rediscover the joy of handwritten letters and share them with family and close friends.

During the development process, countless ideas kept coming, but I chose to exercise restraint and focus on perfecting the core functions and user experience first.
So if there's a feature you really want, please leave a comment or give me feedback within the app. I read every suggestion and opinion!

### 5/5 — Nice upgrades

*2025-06-03*

Still enjoy using it. The upgrades are nice. Just gotta make sure you insert the emails correctly.

### 1/5 — cumbersome, limited options, and doesn’t work

*2025-05-24*

I tried it by sending a test to another email, and the end result was un-openable. Great idea, though.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your message. Based on your description, did you receive an email in another mailbox but couldn't open the received letter? I'd like to help you resolve this issue. Could you go to the APP, click the menu in the upper left corner, and submit Feedback to provide more details about the problem? Screenshots would also be helpful. I’ll do my best to analyze the cause and find a solution for you.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2025-05-13*

I tried many times but the app doesn’t work it doesn’t even login. Such a trash

**Developer response:** I understand your frustration. Could you tell me which login method you used—Apple, Google, or email? I’d be happy to help resolve this issue for you. If you’re willing to give us a chance, you can go to the app’s menu, click on "Feedback," and share a screenshot of the error you encountered. This would be very helpful in solving the problem. Thank you.
