PrivateLingo is a private space for you and your people. Chat in a language you invent together, word by word, so your messages read like a secret only you share. Call each other on voice or video, with calls that ring like a real phone call. Share photos, videos and notes in Our Space, a private wall for each of your people that nobody else can see. Play Lingo, the word game, with friends or with anyone in the World League, or try the arcade and its Weekly Cup. Find the people you know, and stay in control with privacy, blocking and reporting built in. PrivateLingo 3.0 turns Our Space into a private social life for two: no followers, no likes from strangers, just you and the people you choose. SPACES • A new Spaces tab shows everything from all your spaces in one feed, with a face for each person and a gold ring when something is new. • Post once to the people you choose. Each one gets their own copy in their own space, so comments never cross between people. • Photos and videos fill their cards edge to edge, with a small play sign and the length on every video. • Adding someone has moved to the + at the top of Chats. SAME MOMENT • Share what you see right now, a photo or up to 30 seconds of video, with the camera built into PrivateLingo. Tap for a photo, hold to record. • They step into the moment whenever they can and share theirs. Each stays hidden until both are in, then the two open side by side, whole, and are kept on your wall, with a streak for the days you both did it. • Never miss one: when someone shares a moment with you, it waits at the top of Chats and Spaces until you share yours, even if you skipped the notification. • Videos play one at a time, replay instantly, and open full screen with a tap. MORE TO DO TOGETHER • Today's share: one gentle prompt a day, like "share your latest photo memory". Answer with a photo or a few words. Yours stay hidden until you have both shared, then the pair is kept on your wall. • Thinking of you: tap the heart in a space to send a soft heartbeat. A few a day, so it stays special. • Countdowns: count down to a trip, a birthday or a date together, with a reminder the day before. Your space also shows how long it has been yours. • The + in each space now has it all in one row: Note, Photo, Video, Moment and Countdown. PHOTOS AND VIDEOS THAT LAND RIGHT • Every photo and video sits in one of two shapes, tall or square, and you can slide it to frame it before you post. • Tap to open it whole: pinch to zoom, double tap to look closer, swipe down to close. REACT, COMMENT, SEEN • Five quick reactions under every post, and comments as a little conversation. • "Seen" appears on your newest post and comment once they have looked. It follows your read receipts setting, and there are no view counts anywhere. • You hear about everything that happens in your spaces, from reactions to countdowns, and the gold marks show you where. ALSO FIXED • Photo, Video and Camera in the chat open again on iPhone. • If the microphone cannot start, PrivateLingo now tells you instead of doing nothing. • After a hiccup the app always comes back to your chats. Thank you for using PrivateLingo. If anyone ever makes you uncomfortable, use Report or Block from their profile and we will look into it.
