Dear Me - Letters To Self
The inspiration
The inspiration for "Dear Me" came from a simple desire to combine text with attachments like images and map locations. It started as a technical challenge but evolved into something more personal when my wife suggested creating an app where people could send letters to their future selves. The idea of surprising yourself with memories after a random period felt unique and exciting, sparking the journey to develop this app.
