Love the app and it’s purpose. Would love the ability to save posts for future reference vs. having to take photos/screenshots.

Amazing app to connect with others in upstate NY

I LOVE this app. My husband and I are in contract on a house upstate and have loved getting to connect with others and have an entire community of resources and connections.

Such great community and SUCH an incredible source of information!

Live it

What a fun, useful app! It’s like Nextdoor but more creative.

Connecting post covid made easy!

I absolutely love this app. Making friends as an adult is hard + now with a pandemic, it feels even more unattainable. For anyone who loves making connections or is new to the “upstate” world, this is the place to start!
