Great idea but there’s some serious bugs. Make sure you double check your letter before sending. It kept replacing my letter with an old draft that had half of what I was trying to write. When I finally got it to send (after the weekend cut off because it took so long for it to […]

It was expensive, but I thought it was worth it if he got letters quicker. Save has never been saved, and I have had to rewrite letters twice in the past week. Last letter took several days to be delivered which is not what was advertised. Once my purchase is completed, I am unistalling and […]
This is a shameful app that preys on the vulnerability of military families by charging them ~$5 to send an email. They do not notify you of the cost of a “token” to send a letter until after it has been drafted. My experience has only been communicating with a recruit going through boot camp, […]
I’ve had it with this app! if I could give it a -5 I would! can’t even get to the part where I complain about paying eight times the standard price to send a letter. I can’t even write the damn letter because there’s not even an option to save it! You exit the app, […]
If you live closer to base than where the letters are printed, handwritten may get there more quickly. It is a bit pricey, but you see the tracking, as well. My son preferred real letters, but these were a nice supplement, and much easier to type a letter than write it. The price also includes […]
It’s a great idea. The writing prompts are helpful. Each letter is expensive though. Would like to attach more pictures. There also isn’t enough letter space for me. I write long letters. I don’t know how to connect with other military girlfriends through the app. The time and date on tracking your letter seems to […]
App itself seems to work fine, but there is no easy way that I can find to keep them from tracking you or selling your activities and info. Also received unwanted marketing text messages with no option to opt out. I am using this app to be able to send letters to relatives in the […]
If you put your phone down for a split second, most everything you wrote will be erased. It has happened to me several times already. I gave 2 stars instead of one because it’s a convenient way to send short messages. App sucks. Came back give it 1 star, i hit the save button so […]
The app keeps glitching. I have to close and reopen several times to create a letter. It will also tell me I have no letters available when I bought a package. I have to try throughout the day to upload a picture. The last letter it wouldn’t upload at all . I kept getting an […]
Absolutely the easiest way to write a letter. It’s just like sending a very long text! You can stop and continue later, whenever you want, and you get to include a picture. The app sends nice alerts so you know the progress of your letter right up to delivery. Also you can check in the […]
I would have given 5 stars. It’s been really good up until now. an update I guess ruined it. I’ve been sending lots of letters to my recruit since october. But now It won’t let me have access to my photos and camera so I can no longer send my recruit any form of photos. […]
You get an unsolicited SMS that doesn’t mention that it is a pay for letter service ($3.99, good value for what you get). You also get a weekly update of their activities. I love the idea, am ok with paying for a service, but it’s wrong to do the bait and switch thing, and in […]
The letter writing is nice & simple. Notification that recruits write back was awesome. I found the “mail delivered!” notifications to be misleading as it is not possible to confirm when any mail is actually placed into the hands of a recruit. That feels like marketing, seems unfair to users. It is extremely frustrating to […]
This app is absolutely broken. I keep trying to attach my photos, WHICH I PURCHASED, to my letter. I was able to do so in the past without an issue, now I suddenly purchase extra photos now I’m unable to attach them. Total ripoff. And the first letter I sent my husband was lost somewhere […]
So far, it’s been marginal. I don’t really understand the difference between plus and normal and the only difference i could see for “plus” in 12 letters vs buying 20 without it was to include 4 photos instead of just 1. I thought return postage was included with “plus” but then it asked me to […]
The app is supposed to help alleviate stress of reaching your recruits, not add more! It says into your number and you can connect you go to enter the number but yet it won’t let you scroll down to press send code, the whole thing is just wonky and a waste of time. extremely unhappy […]
The concept is great but my last letter sent out 3 times. It keeps freezing up and it won’t let me click on the message for support chat to figure out how to get a credit for my 2 letters I had left. I won’t add anymore money because I didn’t get to use alline […]
My second letter has said sent for 4 days, was supposed to be an overnight. I even paid extra for extra pictures and it isn’t showing delivered. So the next day thing isn’t guaranteed. Tried to reach costumer service and can’t, I get the constant loading circle to send a message or ask a question. […]
This app seems really nice. My boyfriend told me to get it so he can get letters from me faster. It was taking a long time for my letters to get to him. This app tracks your letter and tracks your recruit’s letter response and how long it takes to get to you, which is […]
Wonderful way to get in touch with your SIT. Price is reasonable considering all the work that goes into the process. You can even send pictures! Easy to setup and use. I accidentally backed out at the end of writing my letter, I got scared I had lost everything. It automatically saved, so I didn’t […]
