Why we started Stamps

How are you doing?

The simple question: ‘How are you?’ is always meant well. However, during a medical journey it can be burdensome to tell the same story again and again. Or to copy and paste it for different WhatsApp conversations. It can cost a lot of time and energy. While the energy should go to improving your health. With the app Stamps you can write down how you are doing whenever you like and whenever it suits you. You can invite your personal network of friends, family, colleagues and so on, to follow your updates in Stamps. Easy as that.

Have an overview

By sharing your experiences in Stamps, you create an overview about your journey, including all highs and lows, for yourself. You can easily read how you experienced earlier treatments, and the aftermath of them. Pictures as well as reactions on your updates by friends, bring back valuable memories. This also helps in making it feel like the entire journey was a big blur.

When you share your story in Stamps, it will not disappear between other WhatsApp’s, holiday pictures, mails or advertisements.  

The power of a stamp

How lovely is it to receive a postcard with an actual stamp when you are going through a difficult journey. It is a sign of compassion, from somebody who cares about you. For the team of Stamps, this symbolizes the support we want to offer you with our app. You can easily send a postcard, some flowers or a small present to somebody who is keeping you up to date via Stamps.

Writing for someone else

Sometimes you might not have the energy or time to write how you are doing. Above that, not everybody is able to write. For example due to dementia or brain injury. Via settings, you can give someone else the rights to write for you.

You can also give multiple people the rights to write for you. Do you want to share a journey for your grandma, or brother or sister? You can make one account and keep everybody updated together!

En om een misverstand de wereld uit te helpen, je hoeft geen schrijfervaring te hebben om jouw verhaal in Stamps te delen.
