Slowly: A Different Way to Make Friends Around the World

Slowly is a free friendship app for those who seek meaningful connections, something often missing in today’s fast-paced world of instant messaging. Designed for people who appreciate depth over speed, Slowly connects you with pen pals around the world, one letter at a time.

Inspired by the traditional pen pal experience, Slowly’s unique feature is that the time it takes for letters to be delivered depends on the distance between you and your correspondent, ranging from hours to days. This slower pace encourages deeper conversations and thoughtful responses, making it a perfect place for introverts or anyone looking to form lasting friendships. It’s not about instant replies—it's about writing letters that are worth the wait.

Key Features:

DISTANCE-BASED DELIVERY
The time it takes to receive a letter depends on how far apart you and your new friend are, promoting meaningful, thoughtful exchanges.

2000+ UNIQUE STAMPS
Collect cultural and regional stamps from around the world as you write and receive letters.

ANONYMOUS AVATARS
Focus on conversation, not appearances, with anonymous profiles. Perfect for those who enjoy anonymous communication and want the freedom to express themselves openly.

FREE UNLIMITED LETTERS
Send and receive as many letters as you like for free, with optional paid features to enhance your experience.

Whether you're looking to meet new people, engage in a language exchange, or just share your thoughts without the rush of instant replies, Slowly is the perfect app to make global friends and rediscover the joy of letter writing. Find friends across borders and build friendships that last—one letter at a time.

Ratings and reviews

It's amazing! It's so easy to make friends on here as long as you put effort into your letters. Also the stamps are cute and it's not impossible to get coins. Edit: I keep getting logged out of my account which is annoying so I'm going to remove a star. Please fix this issue. I hate opening up the app only to go to my email and log in and be treated like a new user constantly.

I would say slowly is pretty good and it's honestly one of the only places where you can send long form letters and create actual friendships. I don't usually move my friends off of the slowly platform since I'm just fine sending letters back and forth. If you're trying to find a friend for texting on another social media platform, you can but make sure the other person is comfortable with it. Don't be pushy, as I've had people that are pushy with that kind of stuff and I usually block them.

Slowly is great. There are people with purpose and interests on this app and they mostly are patient. Unlike your experience with other instant messaging apps, Slowly makes it worth the wait. You won't get offended with a late reply nor will you find it hard to wait for a letter to arrive. It's a place to meet unique characters with a tinge of nostalgia.
