Unsere Artikel sind vorerst auf Englisch.
Die kurze Antwort
LetterToLater is cheaper: $3.90 a year, or $9.90 once, for photos, video, audio and other recipients. Choose it for a scheduled email with attachments. Choose Carry Echo for a letter as an object: paper, handwriting, photos placed on the page, delivered on a part of the day in their time zone, with published limits.
Both services schedule a message for a future day and can include media. The difference is mostly what arrives.
