BeLooped helps Groups of People fulfill their shared Purpose by equipping them with Communications and other Tools in a safe, Private, virtual space. The groups you belong to are all in one app, with zero ads and just one UI to learn.  Group membership is by invitation only; that keeps the trolls out, and the group's manager can "swipe left" to evict those who behave inappropriately. All group data stays in the group. Your data is yours, not ours. There is no charge to use BeLooped as a member of someone else’s group. Your own groups are limited in the free version; to manage more groups (or larger ones) requires a monthly or yearly in-app subscription. Your persona (the data you share about yourself) can be different in each and every group. Be Emily’s mom in the daycare group, Ms. Marshall at work and the gym, and Autumn with family and friends - with different pictures, contact and even address information for each. Once the group is set up: • use Forum for group-wide real-time discussions including pictures. Curation is handled by the group's manager. • use News to share important announcements with the entire group. • use Resources to share links to websites, companies, locations and people relevant to the group. • group members share what they are comfortable sharing; they maintain their own profiles and share only what they choose to. • easily and quickly contact individual members using their preferred methods.
