Hello makers & creators, thank you for giving Rakun Card a try. I have recently been diagnosed with ADHD & Autism, and I'm spending most of my time figuring out how to help more people like me. A big struggle for me was always getting through airport security. It's unfamiliar, it's always chaotic, people can be impatient, or even rude. I might be too anxious to talk to them, I might be exhausted after a long flight. I might not speak their language. Rakun Card allows people like me to share their 'special needs' in a simple app. With Rakun Card I found a way to share my 'special needs' with others in an easy way.But it's not just ADHD, or Autism. Rakun Card helps you share your unique preferences including hidden disabilities, food allergies, and more. Our goal is to make the world more inclusive starting with travel. Because everybody deserves to travel with ease.

How did you come up with the idea for Rakun Card?

Rakun Card - Special Needs Travel

Maker

@__tosh I’m Verena, a designer of Rakun Card. We realised that even though there are a lot of printed cards to communicate hidden disabilities, there is no way to communicate these special needs once you’re in a different country where you don’t speak the language. Be it that you’re experiencing sensory overload at the airport and can’t communicate verbally or that you have celiac disease and need the local restaurant to know about your food intolerances - a digital card that can be easily translated helps you communicate your needs so much easier and faster.

@peterbuch What are your plans on scaling and getting the app among users who need it in their day to day?

@allanberger thanks so much for your support and the great question. Scaling is a big topic, I'm not too sure yet, I think it's all about talking to people who need Rakun Card, and listen to figure out how to make it better. I believe there is a big need, so it'll spread, once the product is great. We are creating content to support this community for sure

💡 Bright idea

Congrats on the launch team. A Small Suggestion: Personalize Rakun card needs based on audience (e.g., food needs in restaurants, personal needs in crowded places like cafe's and airports). Additionally, consider a multi-lingual voice feature to read needs aloud for travelers. :)

@amarnath_nagula thanks so much for your feedback. That's awesome. Love the multi-lingual voice feature, will explore this for sure. Also, you are right there's many more different personalization options. Thanks again for taking the time to help us out

Stupid Notes

Maker

@__tosh Great question! The whole development process of Rakun Card, from idea to submitting it to the App Store was only 4 days. So we had to keep our setup super lean. The App is pure Swift / SwiftUI and data is stored on device only. For translations we're using DeepL api and store the latest translations on device as well. On nice side effect of this approach is that we could keep the app size down to 1.6mb, which is great in situations with weak Wifi like airports or hotels
