How Owl Post works
A private exchange of letters between just the two of you —
carried by owl, sealed so no one else can read them.
🔑
Know the secret word.
The two of you share one magic word (agreed out loud, not through this
app). You’ll type it to unlock your letters — it’s the key. If it’s wrong, the
letters simply won’t open.
🪄
Cast “Lumos”, say who you are, then speak the word.
Choose which friend you are (Ishmum or Ahona), then type the magic word the two
of you agreed on. The word is the only key — no emails, no passwords.
✍️
Take turns, one letter at a time.
Write your letter and Send by owl. Then it’s your friend’s turn —
wait for the owl to return with their reply.
🔒
Only the two of you can read it.
Letters are locked on your own device before they’re sent. If the passphrases
don’t match exactly, the letter simply won’t open.
