I’m answering a question

How do I answer?

Open the link you were sent. Then pick how you’d like to answer: Record a video, Record your voice or Write it down. When you’re happy with it, tap Send.

How long can my answer be?

Up to 2 minutes of video or 3 minutes of voice. If you write, take all the room you need.

My camera or microphone won’t turn on.

Your phone may be blocking them for this page. Here’s how to let them in. On iPhone: tap aA in the address bar, then Website Settings, and allow Camera and Microphone. On Android: tap the icon left of the web address, then Permissions, and allow Camera and Microphone. Then tap Try again. You can always write your answer instead.

The link opened inside another app.

Some apps, like Facebook and Instagram, can’t use your camera. Tap •••, then Open in Safari or Open in Chrome, and you’re all set.

Can I try again before I send?

Of course. Nothing is sent until you tap Send. Watch or listen back first, and tap Record again as many times as you like.

Can I add a photo?

Yes, when you write your answer. Tap Add a photo. Please only add photos you took or have permission to share.

I don’t want to answer.

That’s completely OK. Just close the page, and nothing is sent.

I sent my story

What happens when I tap Send?

Your story goes to the person who asked. They can keep it, share it and turn it into postcards.

Can I unshare my story?

Yes, anytime. Open your question link on the phone you sent it from. Tap Unshare my story, then Unshare. Don’t have that phone? Tap Email us below. We’ll unshare it for you.

What does unsharing do?

It’s removed from their account. Its links and postcard codes stop playing it. Anything already printed or saved can’t be called back.

Can I keep a copy?

Yes. Open your question link on the phone you sent it from. Then tap Save a copy.

Did they get it?

Your question link shows the day you sent it. It’ll also show when they say thank you.

I asked a question

How do I ask someone a question?

Tap Ask, pick a person, then pick a question. Send them the link by text or email, and you’re done.

Can we record it together?

Yes, and it’s a lovely way to do it. Tap Ask, pick a question, then tap We’re together. Record now. Hand them the phone, or hold it up for them.

I didn’t get my code.

Give it a minute, and check your spam folder. Still nothing? Go to Sign in and enter your email again. Then use the newest email.

They can’t find my question.

No problem. Your link keeps working until they answer. Open Postcards and tap Send it again.

Where do the answers go?

Each answer comes back as a postcard. Open Postcards and tap one. The story plays inside it.

How many questions can I ask?

Your first 5 questions are free. Recording together doesn’t count. To get one back, open Postcards. Then cancel one that hasn’t been answered.

Who can see their answer?

Just you, and the person who answered on the phone they used. You can share it with a link if you’d like.

How do I share a story?

Open the story and tap Send it. Anyone with the link can see the card. To stop it, tap Unshare in Postcards anytime.

How do I print postcards?

Open Postcards, add up to 5 cards, and tap Print. We’re still testing printing, so it may not be open just yet.

Can I keep a copy?

Yes, and it’s free. Open a story, tap More, then Download a copy. Want them all? Tap Get my stories.

How do I delete my account?

Tap Delete my account. It happens right away, and it can’t be undone.

I scanned a postcard

How do I open the story on a postcard?

Point your phone’s camera at the code on the back. The story opens and plays right away. No sign-in needed.

It says “This postcard isn’t here.”

The link or code may have been turned off. Or the story may have been unshared. Ask the person who sent it for a new link.

Still stuck?

How do I stop your emails?

Tap Don’t email me at the bottom of any email, then Stop these emails. Or turn off Email me when someone answers in Settings.

Something’s wrong with a story I’m in. What can I do?

Email us below. You don’t need an account. Send the link or postcard code if you have it. Tell us if you were recorded without your OK. We’ll look right away.

Can I see or delete what you have about me?

Yes. See your stories in Postcards and your people in People. You can get my stories or delete my account. For anything else, email us below. Use the address you have with us. Our Privacy Policy explains what we keep.
