Description
Postcard is a social experience without all of the superficial and manipulative aspects. It‘s just you and the friends and family you love.
Be the user, not the product.
With no ads, influencers, or paid promotions, you are the main priority of Postcard. Every design choice is made to help you have the best experience.
Private. Personal. No strangers allowed.
Don’t stress about clout or arguing with friends of a friend. Only friends can interact with you on Postcard. Even if you reply to a friend’s post, only mutual friends will see it.
Life is not a numbers game.
Socializing should not be stressful. We try to help with delayed sending, the lack of like counts, and other intentional design.
Relationships are more than a status.
Don't have anything in particular to say? Share life's moments as they come naturally. Or send loved ones a picture of yourself to show you're doing alright.
No more invasive data tracking.
Our data tracking is minimal, not shared with any “partners”, and is compliant with GDPR, CCPA and PECR.
What’s New
Version 1.0.1
Now with the ability to invite friends by sharing your profile.
Ratings and Reviews
Keeps me connected with people not content
I adore Postcard and it is just a delight to use. All the interactions are focused on letting me share and connect with my friends and family, then get off the app and back to my life.
The daily notifications remind me to check in yesterday’s posts and replies, and send new posts or replies of my own for my loved ones to see tomorrow. I love seeing short updates from the people that matter to me, without being encouraged to scroll or swipe.
I also love that all of my conversations on a post are only shared with mutual friends. I can invite people from all parts of my life into one space without negotiating their interactions with each other.
Postcard gives me hope for a better kind of social media experience and I am actively trying to get all my friends and family on it so I can finally get off the other platforms. Cannot recommend highly enough!
A truly peaceful social experience
I love how calm, meditative and intentional Postcard feels! I’ve been using it here and there, when I feel like it, and there’s no pressure to post or hack an algorithm. I also love scrolling through my feed to check in with close friends. I find myself only posting to Postcard. The prompts are great too, as if I don’t have a photo to post I can just leave some fun information, too. Overall, just a wonderful, simple experience that has been deeply needed.
What Social Media Should be!
This app has made me enjoy using social media again! There’s no ‘influencer or aesthetic’ pressure - its all about connecting with friends with none of the harmful & addictive qualities of traditional social media!
I’ve really enjoyed using it and always look forward to postcards from my friends!
