Hey friends,
Just finished building Futurecam as a side project - it’s a camera app that lets you send photos to yourself and friends in the future. I’ve been having a blast with it over the past few weeks.
Rather than dive into features / use cases, check out the video below if you want to learn more or just download the app.

App: https://appsto.re/us/ZpxS8.i
For the lazy among us, sign up is a single screen :)
And holler at me here we the goodness that is early adopter feedback!

Nice work, @willydennis, and I especially like the dragging interaction to specify the time. This would have been useful during Outside Lands this past weekend (many photos were taken with friends).
When you first told me about the app, you said it was a side project. What do you do if it takes off?
@rrhoover sell! Haha. Honestly not sure. Building the right consumer thing is tough. So if it takes off i'd spend a lot of time thinking about how not to mess it up while taking maybe slightly more time thinking about how to take more risks and go bigger with the product. Selling isn't as fun as building a lasting company or brand so ideally it's the latter. But for now, it's a side project and active experiment. Near term though I want to throw video in this puppy.
@avizuber Totally waiting for an Android version. This looks like so much fun for future stuff. Like, you know Monday is going to suck, send yourself funny selfies to yourself and friends. Love it!
Love the drag to set the timing. Very creative idea for an app as well. I can see this getting addicting the more i use
Would also like to give you huge props for filming a simple video of yourself demoing the app and skipping features that were self explanatory. It feels odd to give praise for something that small, but way too many people seem to feel obligated to make overly complicated cookie cutter videos for apps. This was easier to watch
@kristofertm glad to hear! Wanted to be straightforward. I think the "we're all road tripping in a vintage van to the beach while using this app" videos are getting a bit tiresome :)
