## What is Drop It?

Drop It lets you leave digital footprints at real-world locations. Post a photo, video or message where you're standing, and only people who come to the same spot can see it.

HOW IT WORKS
• Drop: post a photo, video or text right where you are.
• Discover: open drops within about 50 metres of you.
• React: like, dislike and reply to what you find.
• Explore the map: see where drops are piling up, then go there.
• Nearby alerts: turn them on and Drop It tells you about drops near you that you haven't seen, even when the app is closed.

PLAY
• Aura: your reputation. Posting earns it, and votes on your drops push it up or down. Yes, it can go below zero.
• Dripcoins: earn them by completing missions, and spend them to swap a mission you can't do.
• Daily missions: three quick goals every day, plus a bonus for clearing all three.
• Streaks: post a drop every day to keep yours alive.
• Leaderboards: see where you rank worldwide and in your province.
• Titles: collect them and choose which one shows on your profile.
• Daily venue: a featured spot to visit each day, in Montréal for now.
• Notifications: know when someone likes or replies to your drop, or when it takes off.
