Questions and answers

Does this replace the auto-reply in my email?

No. It is a greeting to send to people, not an automatic reply. For work, set your absence wherever your employer asks you to.

What exactly do I get?

For each greeting an MP4 video (1080 × 1080 pixels, under 5 MB), a GIF (under 3 MB) and your own greeting page pinnry.com/gruss/… with a share button. The video plays in all common messengers, as a status and on social networks.

How fast is it ready?

Seconds after payment. You get the download link by email; if you open it early, the page waits briefly and then shows everything.

How much is a pixel greeting?

One greeting is 1,99 €, the pack of three with any three occasions 4,99 €. Background and character are included. The free sample with watermark costs nothing.
