my name is nan. i live alone. not all alone. i live with 2 pups, maisy and hugo.
not dead yet!?! what does that mean?
not dead yet! is an app, too.
for connection.
for when we live alone.
for when we’re older.
for when we don’t make regular contact with our people.
the origin story of not dead yet!tm
they sleep in a crate. i sleep in my bed. happily, alone! I worry at night. what if I don't wake up? who will know?
now, don't get upset. It's a fact of life. we die. or something. what about maisy and hugo?
this app is for you. I don't connect with friends each day. do you? stay connected. send your people a daisy every day.
will maisy and hugo be okay? big questions, right? i live alone. i work at home. I designed this app to be fun. to bring a smile every day. to share a smile with your people. to connect in a world where connection isn’t as easy as it once was.
I designed this app for you and for the maisy and hugo in our lives.
how not dead yet!tm works:
up at dawn? afternoon? evening? we're not the bedtime police. you’re a grownup…
you decide when to sleep. when to wake. when to toss. when to turn.
you’re up! grab your phone. open not dead yet tm. see the daisy. tap the daisy. the daisy travels to your people. all is well.
you get a funny note from the daisy. your people get a daisy emoji in a text.
a text? don’t they need the app, too?
that’s a great question! we have great answers.
you’ll find them below in the brightly-colored faq.
you get up in the morning. or the afternoon. or early evening. we’re not the bedtime police. you’re a grownup. you can decide when to sleep, when to wake. when to toss. when to turn.
you pick up your phone. open the not dead yet! app. you see a simple daisy. a daisy. a daisy that you’re not pushing up! huzzah! that’s the good news. you share the news with your people by tapping the daisy. you’ll get a short, silly message from the daisy. a smile to start your day.
the people in your circle receive a daisy emoji in their messages. a simple text. they don’t need the app to be one of your people.
but if they get the app, they’ll get a different message every day, a custom daisy, and a giggle or two. this app is about human connection and caring.
starting each day with a smile is a great way to LIVE!
here’s the faq. just the faq:
text message? my people don’t need to get the app, too?
hold on…there’s more to it. let me say more.
the people in your circle receive a daisy emoji in their messages if they don’t want the app. a simple text. a flower emoji. your people don’t need the app to join your daisy circle.
but, if they get the app, they get a different funny message each day and our custom daisy in different colors. they receive this message as a notification in the app.
and, they get a giggle or two, too!
example messages: “nevertheless, nan persists!” or nan is up. nobody panic!
those are two of my personal favorites. that’s why the app wants your first name, to make the experience more personal.
not dead yet!tm the app, connects you to your people, and them to you. It's all about caring. it only takes a moment. then you all get on with the business of existing!
this sounds kind of complicated. is it complicated?
The app is easy to use. when you create an account, we ask some questions.
your first name. your last initial is optional.
your birthday. just the month and day. we send you a virtual birthday cake with a candle in it. what’s your virtual favorite?
pronouns. some people use them. you can tell us yours. or not.
forgetful? need a nudge? you can set that up in advance.
if you don’t check in, we send you a nudge as a reminder. you call the shots on the timing. after we nudge you, if you don’t send your daisy, we nudge your people.
we send them a text saying we haven’t heard from you today. we suggest they give you a call or stop by.
the grownups take it from there.
going on vacation? schedule a pause in the action until you return.
do my friends need the app to be my people and join my daisy circle?
no. here’s how that works:
we ask you to choose between 1-5 people to be in your circle from the contacts in your phone. we send your friends a text, or you can reach out to them first to see if they want to receive flowers every day! then you trigger the invite, the app sends it as an opt-in text.
to app or not to app? what are the benefits to my people?
your people, we call it your daisy circle, can opt-in to get the daisy emoji by SMS (text message). no app required.
but they won’t get our amusing daily messages. these days, we need all the smiles we can get.
when they get the app, they get choices. and a richer experience.
a free version: but they get ads, too. boo, hiss, ads. they will get the snarky messages and OUR daisy in their notifications. and they can start their own daisy circles.
a paid version: no ads! the people who get the paid version, get everything.
that’s it. another day. another daisy. a little snark to make you smile.
start each day with a smile. a great way to live.

how much does it cost?
i’m working on that detail. i’ll let you know when i figure it out.
i’d like to cushion my old age with the big bucks. maybe i will. maybe I won’t. regardless of the financial outcome, i’m doing this. as long as it doesn’t break my bank. i can’t give it away for free, but it won’t break your bank.
we need the kibble, though. we need the kibble.
