A video postcard with a smile
Smilez is simple.
Suppose you have a video that you would like to share
with family and friends.
With Smilez you upload your video. You select your
favorite frame from the video and write a personal
message. The app creates a physical postcard with your
frame and message. You provide the address and the
next day your video postcard is sent.
When the postcard is delivered, the receiver can user his
smartphone with the Smilez app to scan the card and
watch how it comes alive as the video plays.
