Why › No shame
Needing a reminder is not a character flaw
Life is busy and it is hard. Wanting help to stay close to people is the opposite of not caring.
What this actually looks like
“I feel dumb for needing this”
That is the most common sentence people write before they try an app like this one.
“It feels like rating my friends”
Nobody wants a scoreboard of the people they love.
You worry they would find out
And you would rather they never knew there was a list.
What Ciao! does about it
Nobody is scored
There are no points, no streaks, no percentages. A creature is either awake or getting sleepy.
Nobody finds out
Your friends are never in the app. No invites, no shared anything. It never sends a message for you.
Made by someone who needed it
I moved abroad and lost people to “I’ll call tomorrow”. This is the thing I built for myself.
