I built Poppy as a side project to help people keep in touch more intentionally. Would love feedback on onboarding, reminders, and overall UX. Happy to answer questions.

This looks lovely! I've been meaning to do a better job of calling friends and family. I'll try it out!

It would be nice if the homepage loaded more gracefully with Javascript disabled -- as it is, it's completely blank without JS.

This is great, but also not well suited (in terms of visuals, name, language) to some of the audiences that need it most. A version that resonates more with middle aged men would be great. Oak or something.

Is this a CRM for your friends? FRM? FriendsForce?

Beautiful. I am a little worried that you’ll soon lose interest and stop supporting the app without a business model. Do you plan to at least get sponsored, e.g. by some kind of foundation, like ones that are behind mental health initiatives?

Nice Idea! I noticed a bug during contact import. The month of birthdays are shifted -1 :)

This is definitely very useful, and something i've been thinking of to build myself. A personal CRM. Issue is when I see something like this - where it will take me around half hour to figure out - while i can vibe code something in an hour which will do much more and personalize it for me, I hold back on trying it out.
