Slowly

A whole new concept in digital messaging.

- 

WiWhen it comes to communication, the faster your merry missives are delivered, the better, right? Not according to this highly original social media app. The idea behind Slowly is to encourage more extended writing by introducing a delay into the conversation. Your messages take time to be delivered; the further they travel, the longer they take to get there. As a result, instead of the more conversational interactions made possible by Twitter, Messages, and Facebook Messenger, a Slowly message is more like an electronic letter to a pen friend. As you know you're not getting an instant reply, you set down everything you want to say in one go instead of as a series of soundbites.
