Express yourself in the most authentic and therapeutic way, using letters! WriteBack is a new way to get in touch with your friends and family. 1. Make a scribble for whatβs in your heart and save it as a journal. 2. Share your thoughts with your loved ones as a personal letter. 3. Track the responses and write back again. 4. Send the letters to your contacts. 5. All the letters are privately shared and not public. Letters can be seen only by the recipient, you choose! 6. Save the letters in one place, and track their corresponding responses in one place. Just like email threads, WriteBack makes a thread of letters so you can find them easily! Enjoy writing!

Stay close with: β’ A feed built around your circle, not an algorithm chasing engagement β’ Direct messages and group chats, with photo and video sharing β’ Groups for the communities, teams, and friend circles you're part of β’ A simple marketplace to buy, sell, or give away things locally β’ Notifications that keep you in the loop without the noise β’ Top Friends, so the people closest to you are always one tap away O! is built to feel like the early web β social, personal, and yours.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: O! Social at every 2 days against WriteBack's every 5 days. WriteBack's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
