Your Inner Circle

Built for your
closest people.

Circles are private groups that keep every conversation, photo, and moment between exactly the right people. No followers. No strangers. Just your people.

actually private.

Name your Circle.

Tap "New Circle" and give it a name that means something. Your family, your gym crew, your roommates — whatever the group, name it something only your people will get.

Create a Circle - name and icon selection

Make it yours.

Type in your circle name and hit Next. Something like "The Boys 💪" or "Family Group Chat" — whatever fits. This is the name everyone in the circle will see.

Create a Circle - step two

Pick an icon.

Customize your circle with an icon that represents the group. Choose from dozens of options — people, sports, food, travel, pets, and more. Add a profile photo if you want to make it extra personal.

Create a Circle - step three

Circle created.

That's it — you're done. Your Circle is live and ready to go. Share the invite code with your people, and as soon as they join, start posting photos, videos, Thoughts, and Fliks.

lives here.
Together.

Say what's
on your mind.
Privately.

you're in.
All in one place.

a story.

Your profile isn't just a page. It's four different windows into who you are.

1

Your life,
in postcards.

Every photo you post becomes a postcard on your profile. A scrollable, visual timeline of your best moments — laid out in a clean grid that lets your content speak for itself.

This is what people see first. Make it count.

Say what's on
your mind.

Thoughts are text-first posts. Hot takes, shower thoughts, late-night reflections — anything you want to say without needing a photo. They live in their own tab so nothing gets buried.

Your profile. Your voice. No character limit.

3

See yourself
through others.

When friends tag you in their posts, those moments show up here. It's like a scrapbook you didn't have to make — built by the people who were there with you.

Every tag is a memory someone else thought was worth keeping.

Keep what
matters.

Saved is your private collection. Bookmark posts, moments, and ideas from anywhere in fomo. Nobody else can see this tab — it's your personal library of things worth revisiting.

Think of it as your favorites folder that actually stays organized.

saying it.
