Share authentic moments

BeReal. Your friends for real is a new social networking application that's making waves online. Marketed as the first uncontrollable social media, this free app enables you to share authentic moments online. Here, you will share a photo of exactly what you are doing at a random moment.

Unlike the popular photo-sharing app, Instagram, BeReal does not allow you to curate a feed. Instead, it will give you two minutes to capture the photos and share them online. It also captures from both the front and rear camera to show the entire scope of your surroundings. 

How does BeReal work?

BeReal. Your friends for real is a social app that aims for authenticity. It functions as a photo-sharing app, enabling you to share pictures online for your friends to see. However, how you post is different from Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. You cannot post anytime you want. Instead, you will get a prompt at some random time to take a picture of what you are doing right there and then.

Moreover, it uses both the front and rear cameras to create two photos showing your entire surroundings. It also does not have filters to enhance the picture you took. Additionally, you have to be quick about it as you only have two minutes to capture the pictures and post them. If you fail to post, you won't be allowed to see and comment on what your friends have posted.

Getting started is as simple as other social media platforms. Once installed, you will need to register using your phone number, full name, and username. It will then ask you to access your contacts, so you can be connected with your friends. You can then start sharing pictures. As the app shares photos publicly, you can also discover public content, which you can react to with a range of RealMojis.

Not your usual social media

BeReal. Your friends for real give a new look to the social media platform. It allows you to share candid moments. It only gives you a short time to snap the photo and share them online. Moreover, it does not even have filter options. If you like to see authentic moments, this is for you. However, if you wish to be an influencer, you're better off with TikTok and Instagram.
