  • Could be great

    Iv just downloaded it and looks like a great app! Iv managed to upload one photo however, now the app keeps failing to upload any more. If it doesn’t get fixed I won’t be asking my family to join the app and I will have to delete it which I really don’t want to do

    Developer Response

We are happy to tell you that the bug you reported has been fixed in the latest version so you can go back to posting and sharing moments with your friends and family.

  • Breaking the mild

    This is a great innovative idea; breaking the forced need to handover all you data to third parties and suffer streams of adverts. It is a safe fun space for those who want truly private conversations with their friends and families to communicate.

    Hi Rifxxx, we are so glad you are enjoying the app!
