Features

Problem
Daily journaling can feel open-ended and hard to sustain.
How it works
Users capture one Snip per day: tap for a photo or hold for a short video.
Result
A lightweight, intentional daily visual journal.
Why
A one-per-day limit keeps the practice focused on the moment that mattered.
Problem
Memories can be edited, replaced, or retrospectively filled in.
How it works
Snips seal at the end of the day and cannot be edited, deleted, replaced, or backfilled.
Result
A more authentic chronological record.
Why
Each day is treated as its own fixed frame.
Problem
Social sharing can expose moments to strangers.
How it works
Each Snip can be private or shared with mutually added friends in a small circle; the default is private.
Result
Users retain control over who sees their days.
Why
There is no public feed or discovery surface for friend sharing.
Problem
Capturing offline can interrupt the daily habit.
How it works
A Snip is saved on the phone when offline and uploads automatically once connectivity returns.
Result
Reliable daily capture despite intermittent connectivity.
Why
The day is already taken, so users do not need to recapture it.
Problem
Close friends may want lightweight ways to connect without a feed.
How it works
Friends can react to a Snip, leave a note, or nudge someone whose day is blank.
Result
Low-pressure interaction around daily moments.
Why
Connections are limited to mutually added friends.
Problem
Users need safety controls when sharing with others.
How it works
Users can report Snips and block people; reports go to a human-reviewed moderation queue.
Result
More control over unwanted interactions and harmful content.
Why
Blocking immediately ends the friendship and prevents future adds.
