We look at Valentine messages and resources! February has long been considered as the month of Love.

There is no facet of our lives that technology doesn’t affect.

In February 2017, Mfidie.com will put up posts dubbed “#ValentineSpecial” with a focus on technology and our love lives. This was the Second Post in the series. You can read the first part here: #ValentineSpecial: For Lovers – Every Couple should be using this app.

Today, we look at two resources to get our Valentine message out and clear.

1. Canva’s Amazing Designs

Let’s start off with Canva. This web app can help you create beautiful designs for valentines day; whether you want to send to someone or you would want to use as a profile photo.

When you open the page, sign up with an email or with your Social Media account. You should be presented with a field to choose what you would use canva for. Choose “Personal”. You will then be directed to another screen which will guide you through a tutorial on how to use the app. It only takes 23 seconds to be fully done with the tutorial.

Canva has a whole lot of layouts, text and font options, elements, shapes, free photos, customisable background and the option to upload your own photo to be used in the design. It is a full free customization online service you can benefit from.

I managed to create a card on Canva in a minute. It was quite simple and if you are very design-savvy, you should be able to do more. Start designing with Canva now to reflect your best valentine messages.

2. Valentines Day Special App – Valentine Messages and More

In February, a lot of apps show up claiming to do a lot of things. Well, no one will want to be stuck on Valentine’s day without a good message for their lover.

And oh, do you even know why valentines day is celebrated?

I crushed on this cool android app and it is amazing what it has – valentine messages as well as the history of the whole Valentine celebration.

This app is one of those that “contain everything” related to Valentine. It has a love tester, romantic text messages you can copy, personalise and send, horoscopes as well as activities.

Valentine will be here soon so it’s important to be fully prepared for it with this app.
Did I mention this app has tips for single people as well?

And it’s free. Download the app from here: Valentines Day Special App

February has long been considered as the month of Love, with the climax of all the so-called love activities rather conveniently in the middle of the month: February 14th – Valentine’s Day. It’s 2017, and there is no facet of our lives that technology doesn’t affect. In February, I put up a series of posts dubbed “#ValentineSpecial” with a focus on Technology and our love lives.

In more recent years, you can not speak about technology without speaking about smartphones, and with mobile applications. There is a mobile application for virtually everything nowadays. Mobile apps to pay for goods, apps for taxis, apps for designing, apps for movies and luckily for us, apps for Lovers and Couples.

Why would couples need an app when there is Whatsapp or Messenger? Well, one thing about apps for couples is that they are designed to be for just two people, yourself and your lover. They also have unique features that differentiate them from mainstream chat and messaging apps or photo sharing applications. With a busy work or school schedule, it’s mostly tiresome to make time for your significant other. Today, I look at the one very exciting app you should use with your significant other.

• Couple

With over 3,500,000 downloads and a rating of 4.0 on the PlayStore, this app is actually my favourite! It is beautifully designed and encourages you and your mate to keep lasting memories. You can share text, pictures, videos, audio, doodles, beautiful stickers and “private or disappearing photos”. It’s the first app you should try if you are sceptical of relationship apps.

Features (as listed on the app’s website):

• Private timeline to build a shared history & remember all your special moments
• Real-time messaging and share videos, voice messages, and photo filters to express yourself
• Express your moods & emotions with a variety of fun sticker packs.
• Send Secrets: photos that disappear after a fixed time!
• ThumbKiss™ when you want to be close: whether next door across continents touch the same spot on your phones to make them both vibrate simultaneously
• Sketch together in real-time: draw pictures simultaneously or play games from a thousand miles away!
• Share to-do lists: real-time syncing from new date ideas to remembering milk at the store
• Broadcast your location to each other in real-time using Live Beacon, to make it easier to meet up
