DEAR SOMEONE NEW,
Let’s not begin with “Hey.”
Let’s begin with something worth reading.
SlowHi is a letter-based social app for getting to know people gradually. Discover someone, write a letter, wait for a reply, and let the conversation unfold — one thoughtful exchange at a time.
SlowHi gives conversations room to breathe.
There are no typing indicators and no pressure to reply immediately. You can slow down, choose your words, and respond when you have something you genuinely want to say.
HOW THE 30 DAYS GO
Start with words
Explore profiles and discover people through their interests, languages, and stories. When someone catches your attention, the first step is simple: write them a letter. Every new connection begins this way.
Keep writing
Receive replies. Share stories. Ask better questions. Each letter becomes part of your shared history, allowing familiarity and trust to grow naturally over time. There are no shortcuts through this part — and that is the point.
Another door
opens.
After your connection reaches 30 days, one-to-one video calling becomes available. You begin with letters. What happens next is a choice for both of you.
Video cannot be unlocked early
The counter is filled by writing, and by nothing else.
The waiting period cannot be skipped
Thirty days is thirty days, for everyone.
Payment cannot move the clock
Video is free for everyone once the thirty days are done.
Your connection. Your boundaries.
Report and block
Report inappropriate content or behaviour, and block another person at any time.
Manage your visibility
Manage profile and discovery visibility, and control who may invite you to video.
Delete your account in-app
You can delete your account from inside the app, and calls are never recorded.
Intended for adults 18+
SlowHi is intended for adults aged 18 and over. Reports are read by people.
Common questions
Can I pay to unlock video sooner?+
No. The thirty days are filled by writing only, and no purchase shortens them.
Why doesn't my letter arrive instantly?+
Because the wait is the experience. Delivery is delayed by distance, and instant chat will never exist here.
Which languages are supported?+
The whole app is available in English, Türkçe and 中文, switchable at any time from the Me tab.
So, where should we begin?
Perhaps with a place you still think about. A song you never skip. A question you have always wanted to ask someone far away.
Write it down. Send it somewhere new. Give the reply time to arrive.
