      Shared links get their own preview

      When you send a gift link or a link to add a message, the preview in your chat now says a little surprise is waiting, instead of showing our homepage pitch.

  2. NEW

    The big reveal, rebuilt

    • New

      Press and hold to open

      The reveal now starts under a sky full of stars. Hold the button and the machine charges up, then bursts open right as the sound peaks.

    • New

      Little toys for every capsule

      Each capsule you open drops a toy that fits the occasion. Balloons float up for birthdays, pumpkins tumble in for Halloween, and they all pile up as you go.

    • New

      A finale with credits

      After the last message, the credits roll with the name of everyone who wrote, followed by fireworks. Because a group card deserves an ending.

    • New

      New sounds

      Fresh sound for the charge up, the burst, the opening titles and the finale.

    • Better

      Making a gift is smoother

      There is a new occasion picker, and the last button says exactly what happens, like Create for $9.99. If you go back to change your message, your plan stays picked.

    • Better

      Looks right on small phones

      The reveal and the homepage fit smaller screens better and are easier to use with a screen reader.

  3. Fewer steps

    • Better

      Gifts start collecting right away

      A new gift is ready for messages the moment you make it. There is no separate start step anymore.

    • New

      Tell us how it went

      Now and then we ask one quick question, like after you finish a gift. You can always skip it, but we read every answer.

  4. Card collections

    • New

      16 card collections

      Each collection is a complete look for a message, with its own artwork, paper, ink, lettering and edge. Try Birthday Parade, Love by Post, Moon Garden, Disco Heart or Northern Lights. They come with Celebration and Keepsake.

    • New

      Three ways to open a message

      Messages can now arrive in an envelope, behind curtains or tied up with a ribbon, so every note gets its own little unwrapping.

    • New

      Halloween, Christmas and New Year

      Three new occasions, each with its own effect. Bats for Halloween, snow for Christmas and stars for New Year.

    • New

      Pick any ink colour

      Not feeling the ink that came with the card? Choose your own colour for your message.

    • Better

      Keep the card you fell for

      If a design you picked needs a different plan, we now say so clearly and let you keep it in one tap, without losing what you wrote.

    • Better

      A fresh coat of paint

      A new look across the site, from making a gift to pricing and signing in.

  5. Little touches

    • New

      See when they opened it

      Your gifts now show when the person you made it for has opened theirs.

    • Fixed

      A tidier reveal

      The watermark on free gifts is easier to read and no longer covers the button that opens a capsule.

    • Better

      A gentler FAQ

      Answers on the homepage now slide open and closed instead of jumping.

  6. Hello, world

    • New

      LittleSurprise is live

      Make a group card that feels like a gift. Friends add messages, photos and voice messages, and the person you are celebrating opens them one capsule at a time.

    • New

      Cards for more moments

      Anniversaries, weddings, new babies, graduations, retirements, get well soon and thank you all joined the occasion list.

    • New

      Finished gifts stay put

      When you finish a gift, it is locked in along with its opening time. Need a change later? Reopen it for $2.99. Keepsake gifts get one change for free.
