Discussion forum for parents in Australia

Hi, I am working to create a product for parents to better connect with their children. It is a mobile app that allows parents to send text, photos, videos, and audio to themselves, family members, and their children at desired points in the future up to 60 years, allowing families to relive memories and reconnect with the past. I was wondering if any of you would be interested in this app, and would you be willing to pay for the service?
Thanks for your time, Don

Hi Don,
I am actually currently using an app that lets you do the same type of idea.
The AutoSender lets you schedule messages that will automatically be sent to the recipient at any set time in the future. This means you could schedule a message for 60 years from today, and they would still receive it.
From what I understand they are also working on a new feature to include images in those messages. And the messages are stored on their server, so no mater what happens to your phone in that time, the message will still send.
I also use this for more immediate things, such as if I am going to be gone for certains times I will schedule a message to remind them of things such as taking their medicines, feeding the dog, etc.
You could check it out and see if it is anything like the app you are thinking of!
It looks like you’re visiting us from a country other than Australia.
We are an Australian service and think you’d benefit more from looking up a similar service in your country.
You are welcome to look around the forums, but please don’t make an account or post, as we can’t offer you the help you may need.
Before you go ahead and post, you should know that we remove non-Australian accounts – not because we don’t want to help or connect with you, but because we may not be able to provide you with the service that you require.
