About

Kindredly

Read full description

Write to nobody in particular. Somebody writes back. Kindredly is slow mail between strangers. Write one honest letter and Wren, your courier, flies it to people who write like you. Every morning she brings their letters to your desk. No photos. No swiping. No names until you both want them. • Stamp it: pick a mood stamp, or press your own from a photo. • Read up to 15 letters a day. Answer the ones that stay with you, in any language. • Five letters each way, sign your pen name, and the frosted windows clear at the same moment. Now you're kindreds, with a room of your own. • Keep a page just for you: words, photos and voice, sealed on your phone. • Wren hatches from your first words and grows up with every letter. She also gets hungry. Don't let her. Free to write, free to find kindreds. First Class adds rooms that never close, voice letters, the full wardrobe and more open letters a day. No ads. Report or block anyone from any letter. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage them in your Apple Account settings.
