I have lived abroad for several years and was lucky enough to make friends from all over the world. Life does get in the way, though, and it’s easy to forget how important it is to keep in touch with people—this app is exactly what I needed! My TLDR: SoonCall is a friendship tracker that helps you manage past and upcoming phone call catch-ups with friends. It's a bit like a journal and scheduling tool combined for tracking friendships with those in different cities. I know Mark personally and have enjoyed watching SoonCall grow from the day he first pitched the idea to me to the day he and the team prepped the first app store release. Now, I can finally start using it to track my long-distance friendships, and I'm excited to see how the roadmap will evolve going forward. Here are a couple of my favourite features so far: - getting that immediate visual feedback of "Wow, has it actually been that long since we last spoke?" - adding notes after a catch-up so that I actually remember important details next time we speak.

Thanks for the hunt @annascandella! It's good to hear what features are speaking to you the most so far, especially since you've been following along with SoonCall's journey from the beginning. Visibility on when you last spoke, and the ability to note take are an important part of the app and I want to keep improving it further in the upcoming releases. I'm looking forward to hearing what others are most excited about too, so if you're reading this share your thoughts here on our launch page 📝 I'll be here to discuss and will make notes for our roadmap! Thanks again Anna, it means a lot to have your support as we work on making long-distance friendships that every bit easier 🌍

Hey @kjosephabraham! The hard work was all @mark_rsh's. I just thought it'd be a great product to share here, as I'm loving using it. I'm sure he could share what the most rewarding part of the process has been, though!

Hi @annascandella @kjosephabraham! Thanks for the question, I think for me the most rewarding thing for me so far has been working on a problem that really speaks to me and to others I know. I've enjoyed building on early feedback from our beta users, with the knowledge that we're making SoonCall better for them personally!

The immediate visual feedback feature sounds really useful. How do you handle data privacy and security for the users' information?

Thanks @memphys_sk great question! In the current version of the app there are no accounts, so your data is local and never needs to leave your device. Data around your friendships should be yours, so there's also no plans to change that in future! For performance and anonymised analytics we're using Amplitude Any other questions drop me a message 😄 I've also put together a privacy policy if it's helpful: https://sooncall.com/privacy-policy

SoonCall sounds like a great app for maintaining long-distance friendships. Questions: - How do the smart reminders work, and can users customize the frequency of reminders for different friends? - How does the catchup tracking feature function? Congrats on the launch, Anna!

@kyrylosilin thanks for the kind words, and great questions! - Every friend is unique, so you could set your preference for Jane to be "Weekly" and John to be "Every 6 Months". The home screen displays smart suggestions for who might be ready for a catch up next, based on frequency and past catchups, but the goal is to continue to make this more intelligent in future releases - Catchup tracking is a place for you to check in on a recent conversation and add in any personal reflections (e.g. how it made you feel and add notes on what you chatted about). Every catchup is collected into that friends history so you can remember what you were speaking about and when
