When You Were: Nostalgia

Remember the toys you begged your parents for? The songs that played on repeat? The movies you saw in theaters with friends?

When You Were brings your childhood back to life with a daily feed of personalized nostalgia tailored specifically to YOUR birth year.

Unlike generic "on this day" apps, When You Were knows exactly what was culturally relevant when YOU were growing up. Every card is framed personally: "When you were 7, everyone wanted a Furby" or "The summer you turned 16, this song was everywhere."
