Digital handwritten letters, PenPals & stamps
A new form of deliberate communication with the joys of digital collecting and making pen-pals across the world. Immersive letter-writing experience made for the iPad - now on iPhones!
Lettre enables users to write handwritten digital letters, discover pen pals by region/continent through the PenPal feed, and build authentic friendships without instant messaging pressure. Users can introduce themselves, send letters to specific regions, and receive replies from interested pen pals worldwide.
Lettre is 100% community-funded and bootstrapped. Users can join the Pippin Supporters Club to directly support the team, unlock premium features like Express Mail and Advanced Filters, receive exclusive monthly stationery, and help keep the platform independent and ad-free.
Lettre provides full Apple Pencil support, customizable digital stationery (papers and envelopes), multiple pen styles, and the ability to import artwork from other apps like Procreate. Users can write naturally and expressively, then send letters to pen pals or any email address.
Lettre offers collectible, tradeable digital stamps designed by independent artists worldwide. Users can build a stamp collection, claim exclusive weekly stamps as Pippin Supporters Club members, and use stamps to personalize and send letters.
Lettre is completely ad-free, bot-free, and AI-free, designed around slowness and deliberate communication. The app encourages thoughtful letter writing over instant messaging, providing a peaceful alternative to social media with no predatory monetization.
