#052 ✰ Objet, now available on iOS
A new way to enjoy your possessions and experience shopping.
Good morning!
I hope this email finds you well, well, well.
While we are stepping into the last quarter of 2022, one word comes to mind: ALIVE. Maybe because we’ve just run a half-marathon which for me was a decisive milestone after three years of pregnancies x breastfeeding (under 2 hours baby, let’s brag a bit!). Maybe because we’ve finally fine tuned a healthy and ambitious routine the three of us. Maybe because after two years ogling at a long-tail bike, we did make a move and now bite the city breeze with a big smile on our face. Maybe because I am listening to this delightful piece from our friend Apache while writing this newsletter. (Go ahead and grant yourself with a free shot of energy).
Or maybe is it because…
🥳 Objet is live on the Appstore! 🥳
1. Public
Today, Max, Kev and I are extremely excited to introduce Objet on the Appstore! Yes, we’ve decided to seek and embrace the challenges of a public app. Why? Because when you're deep in research mode, your main job is to reach some conclusions as fast as possible; and then, you're able to test your next assumptions. We are hungry to learn and grow with our community.
2. iOS only
This summer, we took the decision to move from React Native (iOS & Android) to Swift (iOS only). Being closer to the platform to craft the best experience we can was compelling. Curious to know more? Max has started to write a bigger / longer explanation behind our thought process; and all the technical impact. Meanwhile, feel free to shoot your questions in the comments!
Wait, what is Objet again?
Objet allows you to create a catalog of your objects, alongside their stories, so that you can build your legacy while learning which purchases give you satisfaction.
Objet is a space where you learn to be satisfied with your possessions, present & future. We are here to help you never regret a purchase anymore.
How about helping each other find what is enough? Enough so we can spend time living the moment instead of chasing the perfect setup. No matter how much money we have, we already know that we’ll NEVER have it all. Better be at peace with that.
Instead of chasing all you could have, how about chasing your balance? What is left of chasing a good life? Of questioning what a good life is? In our Discord community, that’s the kind of discussion we love having.
If all the above ring a bell, you can download the app and start:
✅ Creating a catalog of your most significant possessions, with their stories
✅ Enriching these cards with details that are worth remembering
✅ Sharing (some of) your objects to the outside world
✅ Creating collections of objects and sharing (some of) these collections to the outside world
✅ Sorting and searching your objects by emotion, category, name, brand or collection
✅ Enjoying a community of like-minded people, helping each other to buy more thoughtfully, with a soul
$15/month. Cancel anytime.
"Thank you! Objet helping me buy better and not disposable”
