Light up someone's day. Time To Be Generous is one gesture a day: a smiling selfie, sent to the friend you pick. Nothing to write, nothing to like. Just a smile, signed, for someone who matters. ONE SMILE A DAY Take your selfie and pick who gets it: one friend, or several. The next one, tomorrow. SMILE BACK A smile you receive opens full screen. One tap, and you smile back. ALL YOUR SMILES, IN ONE PLACE Find every smile you shared with a friend, sent or received, month after month. KEEP THE STREAK One day, then the next: your streak grows with every smile you send. PASS THE SMILE ON Invite your friends with your link, or send your smile by message: it opens even without the app. Every smile can start another one. NO PASSWORD Sign in with Apple, Google or a code sent by e-mail. A smile always has an author: nothing here is anonymous.
