Project Overview

isMail is an iOS experience that lets users write and send meaningful messages to their future selves. Built with SwiftUI, it focuses on a calm onboarding flow, a “Pick Your Mode” experience, and deliberate navigation and state management.

The Problem

Reflection apps tend to feel like chores. The product bet was that writing to a future version of yourself — rather than journaling about the present — creates a more emotionally engaging reason to return.

What I Owned

  • Implemented the SwiftUI interface and onboarding flow
  • Built the “Pick Your Mode” experience
  • Designed navigation structure and state management
  • Developed the core user flow from writing to scheduled delivery
  • Drove product decision-making and interface iteration

Key Learning

SwiftUI navigation rewards planning the state model before the screens: once the mode-selection state was modeled cleanly, the rest of the flow composed naturally.
