Why › The Sunday deck
A few cards, not a list of everyone
One note on Sunday. A small stack of the friends who have drifted. Swipe through, and you are done in a minute.
What this actually looks like
A long list is a wall
Forty names with dates next to them. You look at it once and never again.
You want a couple of names, not all of them
“Remind me about one friend, then another one tomorrow.” That is what people ask for.
Daily pings become noise
Fifteen friends buzzing at random hours means notifications off, and then the app is dead.
What Ciao! does about it
One note a week, on the day you choose
Sunday morning to start with. Change it to any day and any hour.
Only the people who are due
The deck holds the friends whose rhythm has run out. Some Sundays it is three cards. Some it is empty.
“Not this week” is allowed
Swipe left and the card comes back in seven days. No red badge, no debt.
