Typical Valentine’s Day gifts include items like flowers, candy, jewelry and cards. Why not show your love this year with a heartfelt letter? It costs less and means so much more. Bring back the lost art of letter writing with a modern day twist by creating it digitally on a mobile device.
Hanx Writer is a hip word processing app that turns your iPad into an old fashioned typewriter. With a clean piece of paper, an automatic slide and a very distinct click every time you type, the app provides a unique way to write a letter. Documents created on Hanx Writer resemble the ink-like typeface of a typewriter.
Or, if you want your letter to have a more personal look, use an app that incorporates your handwriting. Using your finger or a stylus you can write on the screen of your mobile device using apps like Notability, Penultimate or Paper by FiftyThree.
Include a classic poem by Shakespeare, Edgar Allan Poe or Emily Dickinson in your letter using the Poems By Heart from Penguin Classics app. Or, draw a picture using an app like Doodle Buddy, Cake Doodle, Colorific, Dragboard or Noteshelf and add it.
When your digital love letter is complete, send it virtually or print and hand deliver it. Don’t forget to seal it with a kiss. #SWAK
