How it works

Three minutes from the first word to a link in their hand.

Kindnotes is a digital card you write on your phone and send as one link. There is no app to install and no account to make, on your side or theirs. You pick a design, write the note, and send the link in whatever message you already use. When they open it, the card reveals itself as they scroll.

Sending one

  1. 1. Pick the design

    The envelope, the polaroid or the locket. Each one is drawn and animated by hand.

  2. 2. Write the note

    It sets itself in a handwriting hand and fits the paper. A photo and a voice note if you like.

  3. 3. Send one link

    It opens on any phone, no app and no account. You keep an edit link; changes go live on theirs.

What they see

  1. Their name on the front, and a line that says someone sent them this.
  2. They scroll. The wax seal breaks, the flap opens, the letter rises out of the envelope. On the polaroid, the print ejects and develops; on the locket, the lid opens to the photograph.
  3. They tap to read. The letter opens full screen and the ink darkens line by line, in the hand you chose. A long letter scrolls.
  4. If you recorded one, your voice note is at the end, with a play button.
  5. Then the card offers itself to keep: save it as an image, share it, or add it to the Home Screen, where it opens as its own little app.

After you send it

You get two links: theirs, to open, and yours, to edit. Change the note or the look any time; the changes go live on the link they already have. If you asked to be told, you get one email the first time it is opened. Your receipt carries both links, so nothing depends on keeping a tab open.

Questions

What is a Kindnotes card?
A digital card you write in about two minutes and send as one link. The person you send it to opens it on their phone and it reveals itself as they scroll: an envelope unseals and the letter rises out, a polaroid develops and flips to your note, a locket opens to a photograph and a folded letter. Every design was drawn and animated by hand.
How do they open it?
They tap the link you send them, in a message or an email, and scroll. It opens in any phone browser, including the one inside Instagram and TikTok. No app, no account, nothing to download.
How much does it cost?
$9.79 for one card. No subscription, no account, no credit packs. Edits after sending are free.
Do I need an account?
No. You write the card, pay, and get two links: theirs to open and yours to edit. Your receipt carries both.
How long does the link last?
It keeps working. The card is meant to be kept: at the end they can save it as an image, share it, or add it to their Home Screen.
Can I change the card after I send it?
Yes. Your edit link opens the same card; the note and the look can change, and the changes go live on the link they already have.
