Tapthing – a Daily Photo Challenge with a Fixed Expiration

TapThing gives you one “Ting” per day — a small photo prompt like:

“What’s the first thing you saw today?”

“Show your desk right now.”

“Your current weather.”

“Something blue around you.”

Every Ting comes with its own expiration time. You must post before it expires, otherwise you can’t see the feed.

If you post, you unlock everyone else’s photos for that Ting. When the Ting expires, all posts disappear and the next Ting starts fresh.

No comments. No likes. No following or follower counts. Just 3 simple reactions you can use on any post.

The goal: make sharing effortless, remove social pressure, and create a daily moment everyone experiences together — but with a clear deadline that keeps things fun and ephemeral.

If you want to try the beta, I’d love feedback on:

the expiration-based posting loop

ephemeral feed design

daily prompt pacing

Happy to answer questions!
