Hi I'm Rob, a developer on Hearts. Our goal is to make it easier to send empathy to friends and family even when we're all very busy.
Hearts is very simple, just tap and hold someone's Heart to start sending. You can only send 1 Heart per second, which we think makes receiving Hearts rather meaningful. Your Hearts grow larger the more Hearts you receive, so your screen quickly becomes a picture of the people that care most about you. Finally, when you and a friend hold each other's Hearts at the same time, the app vibrates so you can feel the your heartbeats through the phone.
Isn't this just Yo? We're very excited for Yo as a platform. In a year, I expect to get Yo's from my airline, my barista, and my toaster. But I don't expect to get Yo's from my girlfriend or my dad-- Hearts is designed to build a relationship on empathy that grows over time. We'd love your comments, feedback and Hearts. Thanks
