Experience the connection.

Your safe space

No one can read along unless you want them to. You decide who can find and follow you.

Stay in control

Write about what you're going through, whenever it suits you. You share it only with the people you choose.

Reflect

Take your time and space to write, and easily read back later — in the app and a memory book.

Empathy

When you invite your loved ones, they can show their support and care in their own time

Users about the Stamps app

I was able to write things off my chest, organize my thoughts, and give my emotions a place. I also didn’t have to keep updating everyone or relive everything that happened during those intense weeks.

Sometimes I’m so exhausted from the treatments that I can’t do anything. Then a family member writes an update for me. I think Stamps is a fantastic app.

Thanks to your amazing app, I’ve been able to keep everyone around us updated on how my wife has been doing over the past six months.

What is the best way to show you are there, and want to know how someone is doing, when something terrible happens to them? You don't want to be overly involved, or ask the same question twice, because you forgot about some medical term.

Because of the daily updates, I could estimate very well when I could give a call or visit for a day. Also, I really liked that my friends could read the updates as well. At times it was difficult to talk about my mothers illness for me.

I stayed up to date and could respond without feeling like I was intruding. It was really helpful to have the latest updates and to be able to react — just a short message or emoji to let them know I was thinking of them.

What a fantastic app you’ve created. It’s exactly what I needed to keep loved ones informed during my treatment — without everyone constantly asking my partner for updates.

Since the end of February, my son has been battling lymphoma, and I’ve been using the Stamps app to keep everyone updated, with real appreciation. He’s thankfully doing better now, and the memory book option is such a wonderful feature.

Wat ben ik blij met jullie app Stamps. Sinds ik Stamps heb is er minder kanker in mijn leven.

Your safe space

You write about what you're going through, in your own time. Everything stays private unless you choose to share your journal. Even then, you can keep certain posts private.

Only people you share your unique follow code with can send a follow request — and you choose to accept or decline. That way, it remains your safe space.

How are you doing?

You don't always have time, energy or feel like telling the same story over and over again. Or respond to all those well-intentioned apps. You also want to talk about other, everyday events sometimes. And to know how the other person is doing. In Stamps, you share your story all at once.

Preserve memories

In all the hectic activity and excitement, you might also quickly forget what it was like. Through the Stamps interface and with the remembrance book afterwards, you can easily read back how you experienced previous treatments and moments. And read back how your friends reacted.

Stay connected

Connecting with friends and family and their support is essential when you are going through emotional times. Through Stamps, they can easily stay informed without having to ask. They can easily leave a comment, in public or privately, or send a card to a personal message board.

Show you sympathise

For our team, a stamp symbolises the support we want the app to bring about. Discover the many support options Stamps offers. From emoticons to cards or a bowl of soup.

Writing for someone else

Don't want to or don't have the energy to share how you are doing? Give a loved one the rights to write for you. Or keep the account up to date together with the family.
And to clear up a misunderstanding, you don't have to have writing experience to share a story via Stamps.

Make a memory book

Keep everything you shared, the warm reactions and the lovely cards you received. Very simply create a beautiful memory book.
