Thyme Icon

Thyme is an app I created for women during the late 19th century to be able to schedule and attend rallies supporting women's suffrage during that time period.

Plants and flowers were symbolic in meaning during the 19th century. Many people during the time would use a bouquet of flowers to have a conversation with another person.

Thyme's symbolic meaning is courage and strength. With this in mind, I chose the name to tie into that practice, drawing a deeper meaning, while also promoting secrecy (so women wouldn't get arrested for using the app).
