Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I built FlashPing around a simple problem: Sometimes you need someone's attention immediately, but sending a normal message feels too easy to miss — while calling them feels unnecessary. That's the gap FlashPing is trying to fill. ⚡ Send an instant alert directly to another FlashPing user 📱 Get their attention with an urgent, full-screen experience 🔔 Designed for those “I need you to see this NOW” moments 👥 Save frequent contacts for quick alerts Think: “I'm outside.” “Come downstairs.” “Call me ASAP.” “Your cab is here.” Or anything else that simply can't wait. FlashPing isn't meant to replace messaging or calling. It's meant to sit between them. **When a text isn't enough and a call is too much.** This is the first version I've shipped, and I'm here to learn from the Product Hunt community. I'd genuinely love to know: **Where would you use something like FlashPing?** And if you try it, I'd especially appreciate honest feedback on the experience. ⚡
