On 11/25 I had an idea...on 11/29 I launched to the app store

I documented the entire journey in this tweet thread: https://twitter.com/fullsendsaw/status/1596293115987787777

25Days was born in under 72 hours. I fought the app store review for ~36 hours after finishing and then finally launched.

So what is it?

25Days is a social advent calendar. Remember advent calendars as a kid? Every morning you'd pop open the little door to reveal a piece of chocolate? 25days draws on that feeling. On 25Days you can invite friends to groups and the everyday at 10am PST the group is presented with a prompt. A prompt is generally something fun like "post a picture of your favorite memory with this group" or "post a picture of someone in the group that makes you laugh." At 5pm PST on the same day, all of the photos of the day are revealed.

I had the idea for this app because I live in LA and my parents live in Boston. I didn't go home for Thanksgiving and I am now counting the hours until I see them at Christmas! 25Days is a way to make some holiday memories leading up to my return home. I hope you enjoy it as much as I plan to.
