How it works

Three ways a letter can arrive

You decide what has to happen first, and you can change your mind at any time.

Safeguards

Slow on purpose

This is not an app that can afford to be wrong, so nothing here happens quickly or on one person's say-so.

  • No single person decidesTwo confirmations are required, never one.
  • Nothing moves while you are activeLetters are only considered once you have genuinely been away.
  • You are warned firstYou get an email before anything sends, and opening the app cancels everything.
  • Each reader is privateA letter can reach several people, and none of them learn who else received it.

Your words stay yours

Nobody reads it first

Your letters are not read, scanned, shown to anyone, or used to train anything. They sit untouched until they are delivered, and then they go to the people you named and nobody else.

  • Edit or delete, any timeRight up until the moment a letter is sent.
  • Leave whenever you likeDelete your account and everything in it, in one step.
  • Three languagesEnglish, Russian and Uzbek.
